8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure

For accurate angle measurement, the two axes amplitudes must be normalized by selecting the proper gain adjustment value in the MAG_GAIN_CONFIG register. The gain adjustment value is a fractional decimal number between 0 and 1. The following steps must be followed to calculate this fractional value:

  • Set the device at 32x average mode and rotate the shaft full 360 degree.
  • Record the two axes sensor ADC codes for the full 360 degree rotation.
  • A normalized plot for the full 360 degree rotations are represented in Figure 8-10 or Figure 8-11.
  • Measure the maximum peak-peak ADC code delta for each axis, AX and AY.
  • If AX>AY, set the MAG_GAIN_CH register bit to 0b. Calculate the gain adjustment value for X axis: GUID-B2D19B0A-BA72-4397-944E-5FE21F067C4B-low.gif
  • If AX<AY, set the MAG_GAIN_CH register bit to 1b. Calculate the gain adjustment value for Y axis: GUID-1FBAAC7F-4821-4D9D-A2A8-1FEDBA0F9BF6-low.gif
  • The target binary gain setting at the GAIN VALUE register bits are calculated from the equation, GX or GY = GAIN_VALUEdecimal/ 256.

Example 1: If AX = AY = 60,000, the GAIN_VALUE register bits are set at default 0000 0000b.

Example 2: If AX= 60,000, AY = 45,000, the GX = 45,000/60,000 =0.75. Set MAG_GAIN_CH to 0b and GAIN_VALUE to 1100 0000b.

Example 3: If AX= 45,000, AY = 60,000, the GX = (60,000/45,000) =1.33. Since GX >1, the gain adjustment needs to be applied to Y axis with GY =1/GX. Set MAG_GAIN_CH to 1b and GAIN_VALUE to 1100 0000b.
