MAGNETIC FIELD SENSOR WITH IMPROVED DIFFERENTIATION BETWEEN A SENSED MAGNETIC FIELD SIGNAL AND A NOISE SIGNAL
摘要
<p>A magnetic field sensor includes a Hall element configured to generate a Hall element output signal in response to a magnetic field, the Hall element output signal comprising a magnetic field signal component and an offset signal component. The magnetic field sensor also includes a Hall element modulation circuit coupled to receive the Hall element output signal and configured to generate a modulation circuit output signal. The Hall element modulation circuit is modulated with a modulation signal having a changing modulation frequency that changes between a minimum frequency and a maximum frequency.</p>
