Abstract
Abstract
New results obtained with CMOS Hall sensors are presented. The dependence of the sensitivity on temperature has been investigated for constant current and constant voltage operation mode. The current related sensitivity varies with a very low value of 0.03 percent/degree C in the constant voltage mode. A new NMOS Hall sensor with eight contacts enables the use of the spinning current technique for offset reduction. The averaged offset values of all eight possible current directions in this sensor exhibits an offset suppression by a factor up to 2000. This leads to a magnetic field offset of the spinning current sensor less than +/-200 myT for a wide temperature range.
