Typical values are at T
A
= 25癈 and V
CC
= 12 V. Performance may vary for individual units, within the speci ed maximum and minimum limits.
2
Maximum voltage must be adjusted for power dissipation and junction temperature; see Power Derating section.
3
Please refer to Device Operation section.
4
Power-On Time includes the time required to complete the internal automatic offset adjust. The DAC is then ready for peak acquisition.
5
dI is the difference between 10% of I
CC(Low)
and 90% of I
CC(High)
, and dt is the time period between those two points.
Note: dI/dt is dependent upon the value of the bypass capacitor, if one is used.
6
Functional characteristics valid only if magnetic offset is within the speci ed range for Allowable User Induced Differential Offset.
7
In order to remain in speci cation, the magnetic gradient must induce an operating signal greater than the minimum value speci ed. This includes the
effect of target wobble.
