TDK HAL835PUT-A

The HAL 83xP is an improved version of the HAL 83x with an additional protective layer on the die surface. This robust multipurpose programmable linear Hall sensors can replace the HAL 805, HAL 815, HAL 825, and HAL 810. HAL 83xP offers better quality, extended functionality and performance compared to the above mentioned devices. This family consists of two members: the HAL 830P and the HAL 835P. HAL 835P is the device with the full feature set and maximum performance compared with the HAL 830P.

The HAL 83xP is an universal magnetic field sensor with linear output based on the Hall effect. The IC can be used for angle or distance measurements when combined with a rotating or moving magnet. The major characteristics like magnetic field range, sensitivity, output quiescent voltage (output voltage at B = 0 mT), and output voltage range are programmable in a non-volatile memory. The sensor has a ratiometric output characteristic, which means that the output voltage is proportional to the magnetic flux and the supply voltage. It is possible to program several devices connected to the same supply and ground line.

The HAL 83xP features a temperature-compensated Hall plate with spinning-current offset compensation, an A/D converter, digital signal processing, a D/A converter with output driver, an EEPROM memory with redundancy and lock function for the calibration data, an EEPROM for customer serial number, a serial interface for programming the EEPROM, and protection devices at all pins.

The HAL 83xP is programmable by modulating the supply voltage. No additional programming pin is needed. The easy programmability allows a 2-point calibration by adjusting the output voltage directly to the input signal (like mechanical angle, distance, or current). Individual adjustment of each sensor during the customer’s manufacturing process is possible. With this calibration procedure, the tolerances of the sensor, the magnet, and the mechanical positioning can be compensated in the final assembly.

In addition, the temperature compensation of the Hall IC can be fit to common magnetic materials by programming first and second order temperature coefficients of the Hall sensor sensitivity. This enables operation over the full temperature range with high accuracy.

The calculation of the individual sensor characteristics and the programming of the EEPROM memory can easily be done with a PC and the application kit from TDK-Micronas.

The sensor is designed for hostile industrial and automotive applications and operates with typically 5 V supply voltage in the ambient temperature range from -40 ℃ up to 160 ℃. The HAL 83xP is available in the very small leaded package TO92UT-1/-2 and is AECQ 100 qualified.
