DATA SHEET
HAL 805
Note: During application design, it should be taken
into consideration that the maximum and mini-
mum ADC-READOUT is not exceeded during
calibration and operation of the Hall IC. Conse-
quently, the maximum and minimum magnetic
fields that may occur in the operational range
of a specific application should not saturate the
A/D converter. Please note that the A/D con-
verter saturates at magnetic fields well above,
respectively below, the magnetic range limits.
This large safety band between specified mag-
netic range and true operational range helps to
avoid any saturation.
Range
The RANGE bits are the three lowest bits of the MODE
register; they define the magnetic field range of the A/
D converter.

MODE register; they define the â3 dB frequency of the
digital low pass filter.

TC and TCSQ
The temperature dependence of the magnetic sensitiv-
ity can be adapted to different magnetic materials in
order to compensate for the change of the magnetic
strength with temperature. The adaption is done by
programming the TC (Temperature Coefficient) and
the TCSQ registers (Quadratic Temperature Coeffi-
cient). Thereby, the slope and the curvature of the tem-
perature dependence of the magnetic sensitivity can
be matched to the magnet and the sensor assembly.
As a result, the output voltage characteristic can be
fixed over the full temperature range. The sensor can
compensate for linear temperature coefficients ranging
from about â3100 ppm/K up to 400 ppm/K and qua-
dratic coefficients from about â5 ppm/K² to 5 ppm/K².
Please refer to Section 4.3. on page 23 for the recom-
mended settings for different linear temperature coeffi-
cients.
Sensitivity
The SENSITIVITY register contains the parameter for
the multiplier in the DSP. The Sensitivity is program-
mable between â4 and 4. For VDD = 5 V, the register
can be changed in steps of 0.00049. Sensitivity = 1
corresponds to an increase of the output voltage by
VDD if the ADC-READOUT increases by 2048.
For all calculations, the digital value from the magnetic
field of the A/D converter is used. This digital informa-
tion is readable from the ADC-READOUT register.
Sensitivity =
ÎVOUT * 2048
ÎADC-READOUT * VDD
VOQ
The VOQ register contains the parameter for the adder
in the DSP. VOQ is the output voltage without external
magnetic field (B = 0 mT, respectively ADC-READOUT
= 0) and programmable from âVDD up to VDD. For VDD
= 5 V, the register can be changed in steps of 4.9 mV.
Note: If VOQ is programmed to a negative voltage, the
maximum output voltage is limited to:
VOUTmax = VOQ + VDD
For calibration in the system environment, a 2-point
adjustment procedure (see Section 2.3.) is recom-
mended. The suitable Sensitivity and VOQ values for
each sensor can be calculated individually by this pro-
cedure.
