摘要： In a proximity-detector, a Hall transducer produces a signal Vsig. Two counters, P-counter and N-counter count pulses from a clock and produce count signals respectively to two DACs, PDAC and NDAC. The DACs output signals track and hold, respectively, the positive pulses and negative pulses in Vsig. These output signals are compared with Vsig to produce a proximity-detector binary output voltage Vout that becomes high when a tracking voltage V.sub.DAC-P produced by PDAC rises to each peak positive voltage V.sub.pk in Vsig, and that becomes low when a tracking voltage V.sub.DAC-P falls to each peak negative voltage in Vsig. The peak V.sub.DAC-P is held until Vsig drops by a fixed amount below V.sub.pk to produce an output pulse that resets the counter connected to PDAC at a time shortly following the actual peak in Vsig. Similarly, the peak V.sub.DAC-N is held until Vsig rises a fixed amount above V.sub.DAC-N to produce an output pulse that resets the counter connected to NDAC. The N-counter is reset at t.sub.npk by the negative-peak indicating signal V.sub.Ncomp and is enabled at t.sub.ppk by the positive-peak indicating signal V.sub.Pcomp, while the P-counter reset by the positive peak indicating signal V.sub.Pcomp and enabled by V.sub.Ncomp. This proximity detector detects articles passing at rates down to zero.

摘要： A magnetic-field-to-voltage transducer includes a Hall element and a digitally gain-controlled Hall-voltage amplifier that produces an analog voltage Vsig having excursions of one polarity corresponding to the passing of magnetic articles. Vsig is applied to the input of a signal-manipulating circuit that generates a proximity- detector binary output voltage, Vout, having transitions of one direction each time a predetermined point is reached in Vsig. A digitally gain-controlled gain amplifier is connected to the Hall element. A comparator circuit generates a binary signal Vbig (or V.sub.toobig) that changes from one to another binary level each time that Vsig exceeds a DC target voltage, V.sub.TG. The AGC circuit senses and counts gain counter excursions of one polarity in Vsig, and produces a binary count output signal at the input of the gain amplifier at each of the counted excursions in Vsig, incrementally changing the transducer gain in the direction to bring the peaks in Vsig to just below the target value T.sub.TG. This AGC feature prevents saturating the amplifier and quickly renders a Vsig of essentially constant amplitude so that either the peak excursion values or predetermined threshold levels in Vsig, at which transitions in the proximity detector output voltage Vout are caused to occur, provide greater accuracy and stability in the correlation between detection-approach and -withdrawal distances and transitions in Vout.

摘要： A magnetic-field-to-voltage transducer includes a Hall element and a digitally gain-controlled Hall-voltage amplifier that produces an analog voltage Vsig having excursions of one polarity corresponding to the passing of magnetic articles. Vsig is applied to the input of a peak-referenced-threshold signal detector that generates a binary proximity-detector output voltage, Vout, having transitions of one direction upon approaches of gear teeth down to zero speed. A digitally gain-controlled amplifier is connected to the Hall element. A comparator circuit generates a binary signal Vbig (or Vtoobig) that changes from one to another binary level each time that Vsig exceeds a DC target voltage, VTG. The AGC circuit incrementally changes the transducer gain in the direction to bring the peaks in Vsig to just below the target value TTG. Reference voltages VP2 and VN2 are generated that are equal respectively to the most recent peak positive and negative going excursion in Vsig. DC off-set-limit voltages VA and VB are provided that are respectively above and below the center of the dynamic voltage range of the detector, and the entire signal Vsig at the output of the amplifier is biased in a negative direction when the median value, Vos, of Vsig is greater than VA and moving the entire signal Vsig in a less positive direction when Vos is less than VB to keep Vos within the range from VB to VA.

摘要： A Hall transducer produces a signal Vsig. Threshold voltages V.sub.Pth and V.sub.Nth are generated at the beginning, t.sub.update, of each of a succession of update time intervals, of 64 pulses in Vsig, to be fixed percentages respectively of the peak to peak voltage in Vsig. A proximity-detector binary output voltage is high when Vsig exceeds threshold voltage V.sub.Pth and low when Vsig is below threshold voltage V.sub.Nth. Signals V.sub.Pold and V.sub.Nold, generated by first and second DACs, are equal to the first positive and negative peaks in Vsig after each time t.sub.update initiating the start of a successive interval. Signals V.sub.Pnew and V.sub.Nnew, simultaneously generated by third and fourth DACs, are equal to the greatest positive and negative peak voltages in Vsig during the interval ending at t.sub.update. Counters present their count to the first and second DACs that count pulses from a clock for tracking and holding +/- peaks in Vsig. After each time t.sub.update, a pulse in a signal Vupdt is generated if at time t.sub.update V.sub.Nnew lies outside the range. V.sub.Nold -v to V.sub.Nold +v of if V.sub.Nnew lies outside the range V.sub.Nold -v to V.sub.Nold +v, where v is an incremental DC bias voltage. Vupdt resets the counters so that during the succeeding update time interval the threshold voltages V.sub.Pth and V.sub.Nth have the fixed percentages of the updated threshold voltages V.sub.Pnew -V.sub.Nnew.

摘要： Disclosed is a rotation detecting sensor suitable for use under a vibration-abundant condition as e.g. a sensor disposed in an automobile body for detecting rotation of an engine or ABS. The sensor includes a detecting element for detecting rotation of a rotary body as a change in a magnetic flux and outputting a signal and an integrated circuit for processing the amplified signal into a pulse corresponding to the detected rotation of the rotary body. The signal processing includes an initialization such as a gain adjustment for obtaining an appropriate gain for use in the subsequent process of conversion of the amplified signal to the pulse. According to this invention, a re-initialization is effected to obtain a new initial value such as a new gain if the previously effected initialization is determined inappropriate.
