FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The Allegro™ A1369 is a customer-programmable, high
accuracy linear Hall-effect-based current sensor IC. It is
packaged in a thin 3-pin SIP to allow for easy integration with
a magnetic core to create a highly accurate current sensing
module. The programmable nature of the A1369 enables it
to account for manufacturing tolerances in the final current
sensing module assembly.
This temperature-stable device is available in a through-hole
single in-line package (TO-92). The accuracy of the device
is enhanced via programmability on the output pin for end-
of-line optimization without the added complexity and cost of
a fully programmable device. The device features One-Time-
Programming (OTP), using nonvolatile memory, to optimize
device sensitivity and the quiescent output voltage (QVO)
(output with no magnetic field) for a given application or
circuit. The A1369 also allow for optimized performance over
temperature through programming the temperature coefficient
for both Sensitivity and QVO at Allegro end-of-line test.
These ratiometric Hall-effect sensor ICs provide a voltage
output that is proportional to the applied magnetic field. The
quiescent voltage output is user-adjustable around 50% of the
supply voltage, and the output sensitivity is programmable
within a range of –8.5 mV/G to –12.5 mV/G for the A1369-10
and –22 mV/G to –26 mV/G for the A1369-24.
The features of this linear device makes it ideal for use
in industrial applications requiring high accuracy and are
guaranteed over a wide temperature range, –40°C to 85°C.
