Overview
Der AMR Angle Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine mit einer anisotropen magnetoresistiven Messlösung, die sich ideal für Winkel- oder lineare Positionsmessungen eignet. Diese Platine verfügt über den ADA4571, einen AMR-Sensor mit sauberen und verstärkten Cosinus- und Sinus-Ausgangssignalen in Bezug auf einen rotierenden Magnetfeldwinkel von Analog Devices. Es kann eine Winkelgenauigkeit von besser als 0,2° über 180° und eine lineare Genauigkeit von 2mil (0,002 Zoll) über einen Bereich von 0,5 Zoll bieten, abhängig von der Größe des verwendeten Magneten. Dieses Click Board™ eignet sich für absolute Positionsmessung (linear und Winkel), berührungslose Winkelmessung und -erkennung, magnetische Winkelpositionserfassung, Aktuatorsteuerung und -positionierung und mehr.
Das AMR Angle Click Board™ wird durch eine mikroSDK-kompatible Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ wird als vollständig getestetes Produkt geliefert und ist bereit für den Einsatz auf einem System, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
How Does The AMR Angle Click Board™ Work?
The AMR Angle Click Board™, as its foundation, uses the ADA4571, an anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) sensor with integrated signal conditioning amplifiers and ADC drivers, as well as a temperature sensor for temperature compensation from Analog Devices. It produces two analogue outputs that indicate the surrounding magnetic field's angular position and consists of two die within one package, an AMR sensor, and a fixed gain instrumentation amplifier, with G=40 nominally. It provides better than 0.2° angular accuracy over 180°, and linear accuracy of 2mil (0.002 inches) over a 0.5-inch range, depending on the used magnet's size.
The ADA4571 contains two Wheatstone bridges, at a relative angle of 45° to one another. A rotating magnetic field in the x-y sensor plane delivers two sinusoidal output signals with the double frequency of the angle between sensor and magnetic field direction. Within a homogeneous field in the x-y plane, the output signals are independent of the physical placement in the z-direction (air gap).
The AMR Angle Click Board™ communicates with MCU through the 3-Wire SPI serial interface using the LTC1407, 12-bit 3MSPS ADC with two 1.5MSPS simultaneously sampled differential inputs from Analog Devices. The LTC1407 samples both channels of the sensor simultaneously using an SPI interface, allowing access to both channels on one data line. Besides, it possesses additional functionality routed on some GPIO pins such as Power-Down mode, Gain control, and temperature monitoring.
The power-down feature labeled as PD and routed on the PWM pin of the mikroBUS™ socket shuts down the device. It sets its outputs to a high impedance to avoid current consumption, while the VTEMP routed on the AN pin can be used for temperature monitoring or calibration purposes. Gain control, labeled as GC and routed on the RST pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, activates by switching this pin to a high level. In this mode, the AMR sensor amplitude outputs are compensated to reduce temperature variation, which results in higher and controlled output voltage levels. It can also be used as a sensor self-diagnostic feature by comparing the sine and cosine amplitude outputs when enabled and disabled, such as radius check.
The AMR Angle Click Board™ can be operated only with a 3.3V logic voltage level. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before use with MCUs with different logic levels. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
