The New AMR-Based Angle Sensors are Infineon’s Latest Addition
Infineon Technologies, at the Sensor+Test trade fair, announced the expansion of its sensor portfolio by adding a new family of AMR-based angle sensors.
The XENSIV TLE5109A16 products address the need for very precise, fast and yet cost-efficient angle measurement at the highest functional safety levels in automotive and industrial applications
The Features and Benefits of the TLE5109A16 Sensor include:
- Wide magnetic field range: from 10mT up to >500mT
- High angle accuracy with only 0.1° overall angle error (typ.)
- Best-in-class typ. angle error of only 0.2° within range 10…20mT
- Separate supply pins for top and bottom sensor
- Low current consumption
- Quick start up
- Optimized 3.3 V or 5 V supply voltage
- Pre-amplified output signals for differential or single-ended applications for AMR sensor
- TDSO 16 package
- Automotive qualified acc. to AEC Q100
- ready for ISO26262, targeting ASIL D for dual die
The major applications of the device are:
- BLDC motor position (e.g. pumps, wipers, brakes and other actuators)
- EPS Rotor Position
- Pedals and rotary switches
- Valve or flap position sensing
- Steering angle sensing (SAS)
- Electric Motors
- Magnetic Encoders
- High-Speed Applications
- Automotive and Industrial Safety
The latest AMR-based angle sensors complement the already existing GMR-based TLE5009A16 and diverse TLE5309D products from Infineon. Identical pin-configuration and interfaces of all XENSIV TLE5x09 sensors inside a TDSO-16 package enable customers to switch from one to another product or product version very quickly and at low design-in efforts.
Availability
Infineon’s XENSIV TLE5109A16 products are now available on the market.
