MLX90254 Differential Dynamic Hall Effect Sensor Features and Benefits Differential hall sensor Low consumption Excellent repeatability performance Large airgap range Large supply voltage range Distance between Hall plates : 2.25 mm Applications Crankshaft sensor Camshaft sensor ABS sensor Gear tooth sensor Speed sensor Ordering Information Part No. MLX90254 Temperature Suffix L (-40C to 150C) Package Code VA (4 leads) 1. Functional Diagram 2. Description 2 Voltage Regulator 4 Filter S . ( B1 - B2 ) Filter 3 The MLX90254 is a Differential Dynamic Hall Effect Sensor which has been developed for automotive crankshaft and ABS (anti-lock brake system) applications. The IC, combined with a magnet placed at his back, offers speed and position sensing of ferromagnetic tooth-wheels in dynamic operation (non zero speed). Its low hysteresis enables it to operate over a wide range of air gaps from -40C to 150C. The use of two Hall cells makes the operation sensitive to a rotation of the IC around its normal axis. The output structure is an Open-Drain NMOS transistor with a capability of 25 mA under 24V and protected against short-circuits. The IC is packaged in 4-SIP VA.

Glossary of Terms 1 mT = 10 Gauss: Flux density units. Pre-induction: the pre-induction is the magnetic field induced by the back bias magnet. Operating point: the value of the differential flux density when the transistor output turns ON. Release point: the value of the differential flux density when the transistor output turns OFF Margin: the flux density of the magnetic field has to be higher or lower than the margin value to enable the next toggling of the output. 4.

General Description Let us model the magnetic flux densities by sinusoids. If the wheel confirms a certain geometrical property, the two Hall cells see two magnetic flux densities in phase opposition. They are illustrated by the dashed sinusoid on figure 1. The difference between the two Hall signals is computed and amplified. The remaining DC offset is removed by the high-pass filter. The noise that is out of the signal bandwidth is attenuated by the lowpass filter in order to minimize the output jitter. The AC differential signal is compared to the Bop and Brp threshold and the result of that comparison commands the open drain output transistor.
