A1367
Low-Noise, High-Precision, Programmable Linear Hall-Effect Sensor IC
with Regulated Supply, Advanced Temperature Compensation,
and High-Bandwidth (240 kHz) Analog Output
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
DESCRIPTION
• 240 kHz nominal bandwidth achieved via proprietary
packaging and chopper stabilization techniques
• On-board supply regulator with reverse-battery protection
• Proprietary segmented linear temperature compensation
(TC) technology provides a typical accuracy of 1% over
the full operating temperature range
The Allegro™ A1367 programmable linear Hall-effect
current sensor IC has been designed to achieve high accuracy
and resolution without compromising bandwidth. This goal
is achieved through new proprietary linearly interpolated
temperature compensation technology that is programmed
at the Allegro factory and provides sensitivity and offset that
are virtually flat across the full operating temperature range.
Temperature compensation is performed in the digital domain
with integrated EEPROM technology while maintaining a
240 kHz bandwidth analog signal path, making this device
idealforHEVinverter,DC-to-DCconverter,andelectricpower
steering (EPS) applications.
• Customer-programmable, high-resolution offset and
sensitivity trim
• Factory-programmed sensitivity and quiescent
output voltage TC with extremely stable temperature
performance
• High-sensitivity Hall element for maximum accuracy
• Extremely low noise and high resolution achieved via
proprietary Hall element and low-noise amplifier circuits

can configure the sensitivity and quiescent (zero field) output
voltage through programming on the VCC and output pins,
to optimize performance in the end application. The quiescent
output voltage is user-adjustable, around 50% (bidirectional
configuration) or 10% (unidirectional configuration) of the
supply voltage, VCC, and the output sensitivity is adjustable
within the range of 0.6 to 6.4 mV/G.
