Description
The ATS692LSH in an optimized Hall-effect integrated circuit (IC) and rare earth pellet combination that provides a userfriendly solution for direction detection and true zero-speed, digital gear tooth sensing. The small package can be easily assembled and used in conjunction with a wide variety of gear tooth sensing applications. The IC employs patented algorithms for the special operational requirements of automotive transmission applications. The speed and direction of the target are communicated through a variable pulse width output protocol. The ATS692 is particularly adept at handling vibration without sacrificing maximum air gap capability or creating any erroneous direction information. Even higher angular vibration caused by engine cranking is completely rejected by the device. The advanced vibration detection algorithm systematically calibrates the sensor IC on the initial teeth of true target rotation and not on vibration, always guaranteeing an accurate signal in running mode. Advanced signal processing and innovative algorithms make the ATS692 an ideal solution for a wide range of speed and direction sensing needs. This device is available in a lead (Pb) free 4-pin SIP package with a 100% matte tin plated leadframe.

Performance may vary for individual units, within the specified maximum and minimum limits. voltage must be adjusted for power dissipation and junction temperature; see Power Derating section. 3Negative current is defined as conventional current coming out of (sourced from) the specified device terminal. 4Sustained voltages beyond the clamp voltage may cause permanent damage to the IC. 5Load circuit is R = 100 and C = 10 pF. Pulse duration measured at a threshold of (I L L CC(HIGH) + ICC(LOW)) / 2. 6Maximums of both Operating Frequency (Reverse Rotation) and Operating Frequency (Non-Direction Pulses) are determined by satisfactory separation of output pulses: ICC(LOW) of tw(FWD)(min). If the customer can resolve lower low-state durations, maximum fREV and fND may be increased. 7If the minimum signal phase separation is not maintained during or after a signal variation event, output may be blanked or non-direction pulses may occur.

ATS692LSH(RSNPH)

Two-Wire, Differential, Vibration Resistant Sensor IC with Speed and Direction Output
Functional Description

Sensing Technology The sensor IC contains a single-chip Hall-effect circuit that supports a trio of Hall elements. These elements are used in differential pairs to provide electrical signals containing information regarding edge position and direction of target rotation. The ATS692 is intended for use with ferromagnetic targets. After proper power is applied to the sensor IC, it is capable of providing digital information that is representative of the magnetic features of a rotating target. The waveform diagrams in figure 3 present the automatic translation of the target profiles, through their induced magnetic profiles, to the digital output signal of the sensor IC. Direction Detection The sensor IC compares the relative phase of its two differential channels to determine in which direction the target is moving. The relative switching order is used to determine the direction, which is communicated through the output protocol. Data Protocol Description When a target passes in front of the device (opposite the branded face of the package case), the ATS692 generates an output pulse for each tooth of the target. Speed information is provided by the output pulse rate, while direction of target rotation is provided by the duration of the output pulses. The sensor IC can sense target movement in both the forward and reverse directions.

Forward Rotation (see panel A in figure 2) When the target is rotating such that a tooth near the sensor IC passes from pin 4 to pin 1, this is referred to as forward rotation. Forward rotation is indicated on the output by a tw(FWD) (45 s typical) pulse width. Reverse Rotation (see panel B in figure 2) When the target is rotating such that a tooth passes from pin 1 to pin 4, it is referred to as reverse rotation. Reverse rotation is indicated on the output by pulse widths of tw(REV) (90 s typical).

Two-Wire, Differential, Vibration Resistant Sensor IC with Speed and Direction Output

Timing As shown in figure 4, the pulse appears at the output

slightly before the sensed magnetic edge traverses the package branded face. For targets in forward rotation, this shift, fwd, results in the pulse corresponding to the valley with the sensed mechanical edge, and for targets in reverse rotation, the shift, rev, results in the pulse corresponding to the tooth with the sensed edge. The sensed mechanical edge that stimulates output pulses is kept the same for both forward and reverse rotation by using only one channel to control output switching. Direction Validation Following a direction change in running mode, output pulses have a width of tw(ND) until direction information is validated. An example of the waveforms is shown in figure 5.

ATS692LSH(RSNPH)

Two-Wire, Differential, Vibration Resistant Sensor IC with Speed and Direction Output

Start-Up Detection / Calibration When power is applied to the ATS692, the sensor IC internally detects the profile of the target. The gain and offset of the detected signals are adjusted during the calibration period, normalizing the internal signal amplitude for the air gap range of the device. The Automatic Gain Control (AGC) feature ensures that operational characteristics are isolated from the effects of installation air gap variation. Automatic Offset Adjustment (AOA) is circuitry that compensates for the effects of chip, magnet, and installation offsets. This circuitry works with the AGC during calibration to adjust VPROC in the internal A-to-D range to allow for acquisition of signal peaks. AOA and AGC function separately on the two

differential signal channels. Direction information is available after calibration is complete. Output pulses of tw(ND) are supplied during calibration. Figure 6 shows where the first output edges may occur for various starting target phases. Vibration Detection Algorithms embedded in the IC digital controller detect the presence of target vibration through analysis of the two magnetic input channels. In the presence of vibration, output pulses of tw(ND) may occur or no pulses may occur, depending on the amplitude and phase of the vibration (figure 7). Output pulses have a width of tw(ND) until direction information is validated on constant target rotation.

Application Information

Power Derating The device must be operated below the maximum junction temperature of the device, TJ(max). Under certain combinations of peak conditions, reliable operation may require derating supplied power or improving the heat dissipation properties of the application. This section presents a procedure for correlating factors affecting operating TJ. (Thermal data is also available on the Allegro website.) The Package Thermal Resistance, RJA, is a figure of merit summarizing the ability of the application and the device to dissipate heat from the junction (die), through all paths to the ambient air. Its primary component is the Effective Thermal Conductivity, K, of the printed circuit board, including adjacent devices and traces. Radiation from the die through the device case, RJC, is relatively small component of RJA. Ambient air temperature, TA, and air motion are significant external factors, damped by overmolding. The effect of varying power levels (Power Dissipation, PD), can be estimated. The following formulas represent the fundamental relationships used to estimate TJ, at PD. PD = VIN IIN T = PD RJA TJ = TA + T For example, given common conditions such as: TA= 25C, VCC = 12 V, ICC = 6.5 mA, and RJA = 126 C/W, then: PD = VCC ICC = 12 V 6.5 mA = 78 mW T = PD RJA = 78 mW 126 C/W = 9.8C TJ = TA + T = 25C + 9.8C = 34.8C A worst-case estimate, PD(max), represents the maximum allowable power level (VCC(max), ICC(max)), without exceeding TJ(max), at a selected RJA and TA. (1) (2) (3)

Example: Reliability for VCC at TA = 150C, package SH, using a single-layer PCB. Observe the worst-case ratings for the device, specifically: RJA = 126 C/W, TJ(max) = 165C, VCC(max) = 24 V, and ICC(mean) = 13 mA. (Note: At maximum target frequency, ICC(LOW) = 8 mA, ICC(HIGH) = 16 mA, and maximum pulse widths, the result is a duty cycle of 62.4% and a worst case ICC(mean) of 13 mA.) Calculate the maximum allowable power level, PD(max). First, invert equation 3: Tmax = TJ(max) TA = 165 C 150 C = 15 C This provides the allowable increase to TJ resulting from internal power dissipation. Then, invert equation 2: PD(max) = Tmax RJA = 15C 126 C/W = 119 mW Finally, invert equation 1 with respect to voltage: VCC(est) = PD(max) ICC(max) = 119 mW 13 mA = 9.2 V The result indicates that, at TA, the application and device can dissipate adequate amounts of heat at voltages VCC(est). Compare VCC(est) to VCC(max). If VCC(est) VCC(max), then reliable operation between VCC(est) and VCC(max) requires enhanced RJA. If VCC(est) VCC(max), then operation between VCC(est) and VCC(max) is reliable under these conditions.
