Delving into the Sensor's Architecture
Infineon meticulously crafted the TLE49SR around a differential Hall-based sensing principle. This design utilizes spatially separated Hall cells for accurate magnetic field measurement. These Hall cells are integrated within the same circuit, along with signal conditioning circuitry, for optimal performance. The sensor offers a flexible selection of three digital output interfaces:
- Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
- Single Edge Nibble Transmission (SENT)
- Short PWM Code (SPC)
These interfaces adhere to the SAE J2716-2016 standard, ensuring compatibility with existing systems.

The TLE49SR's sophisticated architecture (detailed datasheet available) incorporates several key elements:
- Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer (CORDIC) Algorithm: This algorithm ensures precise angle calculations, contributing to the sensor's exceptional accuracy.
- EEPROM Storage: The sensor includes an EEPROM for storing vital configuration data, such as the zero angle offset and unique customer identification codes.
- Diagnostic Functions: The TLE49SR is equipped with comprehensive diagnostic functions that enhance operational reliability.
Unwavering Performance and Power Efficiency
The TLE49SR operates across a wide voltage range, supporting supply voltages from -21 V to 26 V and interface voltages from -18 V to 19.5 V. Additionally, it boasts robust protection against high voltage and reverse polarity conditions. The sensor delivers a typical output resolution of 14 bits over a full 360-degree rotation, enabling highly granular angle measurements.
The TLE49SR empowers you with the flexibility to program measurement ranges. Furthermore, it can handle angular speeds exceeding 10,000 rpm with a total angle speed error of just ±3%. The sensor also excels in terms of low output noise, offering a typical RMS noise level of only 0.05 degrees at a 5-Hz filter setting, guaranteeing smooth and consistent angle readings. Data transmission latency is meticulously controlled, with a typical latency of 9.8 µs when utilizing the lowest filter settings.
Intrinsic Stray Field Immunity: A Defining Feature
According to Infineon, the TLE49SR truly sets itself apart with its exceptional intrinsic stray field robustness. This sensor can withstand DC fields ranging from -8 mT to 8 mT and AC fields ranging from -1.25 mT to 1.25 mT. This remarkable resilience allows the sensor to function flawlessly even in environments with strong external magnetic fields, making it a perfect fit for demanding automotive applications.
Propelling Vehicle Digitization Forward
The TLE49SR is a pivotal step towards the future of automotive digitization. Its superior stray field immunity, exceptional intrinsic accuracy, and minimal angle error contribute significantly to this advancement. The sensor is manufactured to meet stringent automotive packaging and safety standards. It comes in a TDSO-8 surface mount package and complies with ISO 26262 as a "safety element out of context."
