Function
Monolithic Hall elements.
Multiplexer for selecting Hall elements.
Performs chopping.
Magnetic sensor drive circuit for constant-current driving of sensor.
Fixed-gain differential amplifier used to amplify the magnetic sensor signal.
Integrates and amplifies Pre-AMP output and performs analog-to-digital
conversion.
Generates an operating clock for sensor measurement.
Power On Reset circuit. Generates reset signal on rising edge of VDD.
Generates reference voltage and current.
Exchanges data with an external CPU.
I
2
C bus interface using two pins, namely, SCL and SDA. Standard and Fast modes
are supported.
Generates a timing signal required for internal operation from a clock generated by
the OSC.
Generates magnetic field for Self-test of magnetic sensor.
