FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The DRV411 is designed to condition InSb Hall
elements for use in closed-loop current-sensor
modules. The DRV411 provides precision excitation
circuitry for the Hall-element effectively eliminating
the offset and offset-drift of the Hall element. This
device also provides a 250-mA H-bridge for driving
the sensor compensation coil as well a precision
differential amplifier to generate the output signal.
The 250-mA drive capability of the H-bridge roughly
doubles the current measurement range compared to
conventional single-ended drive methods.

The Hall sensor front-end circuit and the differential
amplifier employ proprietary offset cancelling
techniques. These techniques, along with a high-
accuracy voltage reference, significantly improve the
accuracy of the overall current-sensor module. The
output voltage is pin-selectable to support a 2.5-V
output for use with a 5-V power supply, as well as
1.65-V for 3.3-V sensors.

For optimum heat dissipation, the DRV411 is
available in thermally enhanced 4-mm × 4-mm QFN
and TSSOP-20 with PowerPAD packages. The
DRV411 is specified for operation over the full
extended industrial temperature range of –40°C to
+125°C.
