ATS610LSC
The ATS610LSC gear-tooth sensor is an optimized Hall IC plus
magnet subassembly that provides a user-friendly solution for digital
gear-tooth sensing applications. The subassembly combines in a
compact high-temperature plastic shell, a samarium-cobalt magnet, a pole
piece, a differential Hall-effect IC that has been optimized to the
magnetic circuit, and a voltage regulator. The sensor can be easily
used in conjunction with a wide variety of gear or target shapes and
sizes.
The ATS610LSC is designed to provide increased immunity to
false switching in applications that require the sensing of large-tooth
gears (e.g., crank angle or cam angle). The sensor subassembly is
ideal for use in gathering speed, position, and timing information using
gear-tooth-based configurations.
The gear-sensing technology used for this sensor plus magnet
subassembly is Hall-effect based. The sensor incorporates a
dual-element Hall IC that switches in response to differential magnetic
signals created by the ferrous target. The circuitry contains a patented
track-and-hold peak-detecting circuit to eliminate magnet and system
offset effects. This circuit has the ability to detect relatively fast changes,
such as those caused by gear wobble and eccentricities, and provides
stable operation at extremely low rotation speeds.
