The output takes the form of a voltage measured across the width of the Hall element, and has negligible value in the absence of a magnetic field. When a magnetic field is applied with flux lines at right angles to the current in the Hall element, a small signal voltage directly proportional to the strength of the magnetic field occurs at the output of the Hall element. This small signal voltage is disproportionally small relative to the offset produced at the input of the device. This makes it very difficult to process the signal and maintain an accurate, reliable output over the specified temperature and voltage range. There- fore, it is important to reduce any distortion of the signal that could be amplified when the signal is processed. Chopper stabilization is a unique approach used to minimize input offset on the Hall IC. This technique removes a key source of output drift due to temperature and mechanical stress, and produces a 3X reduction in offset in comparison to other, conventional methods. This offset reduction chopping technique is based on a sig- nal modulation-demodulation process. The undesired offset signal is separated from the magnetically-induced signal in the frequency domain. The offset (and any low-frequency noise) component of the signal can be seen as signal distortion added after the signal modulation process has taken place. Therefore, the dc offset is not modulated and remains a low-frequency component. Consequently, the signal demodulation process acts as a modulation process for the offset, causing the magnetically- induced signal to recover its original spectrum at baseband while the dc offset becomes a high-frequency signal. Then, the signal passes using a low-pass filter, while the modulated dc offset is suppressed. The advantage of this approach is significant offset reduction, which desensitizes the Hall IC against the effects of temperature and mechanical stress. The disadvantage is that this technique features a demodulator that uses a sample-and-hold block to store and recover the signal. This sampling process can slightly degrade the SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) by producing replicas of the noise spectrum at the baseband. This degradation is a function of the ratio between the white noise spectrum and the sampling frequency. The effect of the degradation of the SNR is higher jitter, also known as signal repeatability. However, the jitter in a continuous-time device can be 5X that of the A3250/A3251. Chopper stabilization circuit (dynamic quadrature offset cancellation) Amp Regulator |
