DEFINITIONS OF DYNAMIC RESPONSE CHARACTERISTICS

POWER-ON TIME (tPO)


When the supply is ramped to its operating voltage, the device
requires a finite time to power its internal components before
responding to an input magnetic field.
Power-On Time, tPO, is defined as the time it takes for the output
voltage to settle within ±10% of its steady state value under an
applied magnetic field, after the power supply has reached its
minimum specified operating voltage, VCC(min), as shown in the
chart at right.

RISE TIME (tr)


The time interval between a) when the device reaches 10% of
its full-scale value, and b) when it reaches 90% of its full-scale

One common mistake when using an Allegro current sensor IC is
to bring the current in from an undesirable angle. Figure 4 shows
an example of the approach of the current traces to the IC (in this
case, the ACS780). In this figure, traces are shown for IP+ and
w IP–. The light green region is the desired area of approach for the
current trace going to IP+. This region is from 0° to 85°. This rule

ENCROACHMENT UNDER THE IC


In the LR package, the encroachment of the current-carrying
trace under the device changes the path of the current flowing
through the IP bus. This can cause a change in the coupling factor
of the IP bus to the IC and can significantly reduce device perfor-
mance. Using ANSYS Maxwell Electromagnetic Suites, the cur-
rent density and magnetic field generated from the current flow
were simulated. In Figure 5, there are results from two different
simulations. The first is the case where the current trace leading
up to the IP bus terminates at the desired point. The second case
is where the current trace encroaches far up the IP bus. The red
arrows in both simulations represent the areas of high current Figure 5: Simulations of ACS780 Leadframe with Differ-
density. In the simulation with no excess overlap, the red areas, ent Overlap of the Current Trace and the IP Bus
and hence the current density, are very different from the simula-
tion with the excess overlap. It was also observed that the field
on H1 was larger when there was no excess overlap. This can be
observed by the darker shade of blue.
