Description
The A3230 Hall-effect sensor IC is a temperature stable,
stress-resistant bipolar switch. This device is the most sensitive
Hall-effect device in the Allegro
intended for ring-magnet sensing. Superior high-temperature
performance is made possible through an Allegro patented
dynamic offset cancellation that utilizes chopper-stabilization.
This method reduces the offset voltage normally caused by
device overmolding, temperature dependencies, and thermal
stress.
The A3230 includes the following on a single silicon chip:
a voltage regulator, Hall-voltage generator, small-signal
amplifier, chopper stabilization, Schmitt trigger, and a short
circuit protected open-drain output. Advanced BiCMOS
wafer fabrication processing takes advantage of low-voltage
requirements, component matching, very low input-offset
errors, and small component geometries.
The A3230 Hall-effect bipolar switch turns on in a south
polarity magnetic field of sufficient strength and switches
off in a north polarity magnetic field of sufficient strength.
Because the output state is not defined if the magnetic field is
