Linear Hall-Effect Sensor with LIN Bus
The HAL 2810 is a member of the Micronas
family HAL 28xy of programmable linear
Hall-effect sensors.
It features a Hall-plate with spinning current
offset compensation technique and a pre-
cise temperature sensor which is used for
temperature compensation of both the Hall-
sensors sensitivity and offset.
The sensor provides a digital signal pro-
cessing. This is of great benefit because
analog offsets, temperature shifts, and
mechanical stress do not degrade digital
signals.
The HAL 2810 is designed as a LIN slave
according to the LIN Specification Package
Rev. 2.0. All communications (program-
ming, diagnostics, and measurement sig-
nal transport) is realized by means of LIN
frames.
Major characteristics like magnetic field
range, sensitivity, offset and the tempera-
ture coefficients of sensitivity and offset can
easily be adjusted to the magnetic circuit by
programming the non-volatile memory.
The HAL 2810 is available in the very small
leaded package TO-92UT.
