Monolithic Power Systems MA736
The MA736 is a MagAlpha digital angle sensor that detects the absolute angular position of a permanent magnet, typically a diametrically magnetized cylinder on a rotating shaft. Its ultrasmall UTQFN package makes it an ideal solution for space-constrained applications. The digital filtering is adjustable to optimize control loop performance when used in servo motor applications.DESCRIPTION
Fast data acquisition and processing provide accurate angle measurements from static angle measurement to high-speed rotation. This sensor supports a wide range of magnetic field strengths and spatial configurations. Both end-of-shaft and side-shaft (off-axis mounting) configurations are supported. The MA736 detects the strength of the magnetic field, and includes configurable thresholds that can be used for diagnostic purposes. An on-chip, non-volatile memory (NVM) provides storage for configuration parameters, such as the reference zero-angle and magnetic field detection thresholds. It is also possible to configure the MA736 with volatile registers without accessing the NVM. The MA736 is available in a UTQFN-14 (2mmx2mm) package.FEATURES
