20. June 2018 | Planegg

Automotive qualified 12-bit angle sensor

Solutions

Features/Benefits

  • Monolithic integrated 360 degrees angle sensor IC containing hall element.
  • Easy to make a contactless rotation sensor with diametrically magnetized mono-pole magnet.
  • Interfaces:SPI(Absolute Angle), ABZ phase output(1024ppr Incremental interface)
  • 12bit angle resolution
  • Less than ±1.00deg angle accuracy at 25℃
  • Maximum tracking rate:333rps(20,000rpm)
  • Over voltage protection
  • Reverse connect protection
  • Various abnormal detection(memory data check, abnormal magnetic flux density range and so on)
  • Setting function like zero point, rotation direction, ABZ resolution/hysteresis etc. via serial interface

The non-contact angle sensors AK7401/05 have a resolution of 12-bit and are automotive-qualified. Both detect the angular position of a magnetic field parallel to the IC surface. The devices differ in signal interfaces and maximum rotational speed detection, with the AK7405 detecting speeds up to ≤20,000 rpm.
