Abstract: A high bandwidth Hall sensor includes a high bandwidth path and a low bandwidth path. The relatively high offset (from sensor offset) of the high bandwidth path is estimated using a relatively low offset generated by the low bandwidth path. The relatively high offset of the high bandwidth path is substantially reduced by combining the output of the high bandwidth path with the output of the low bandwidth path to generate a high bandwidth, low offset output. The offset can be further reduced by including transimpedance amplifiers in the high bandwidth sensors to optimize the frequency response of high bandwidth Hall sensor.

Abstract: An LED (light-emitting diode) driver for a photoplethysmography system, including a switched-mode operational amplifier for driving a driver transistor with a source-drain path in series with the LED. In a first clock phase in which the LED is disconnected from the driver transistor, the amplifier is coupled in unity gain mode, and a sampling capacitor stores a voltage corresponding to the offset and flicker noise of the amplifier; the gate of the driver transistor is precharged to a reference voltage in this first clock phase. In a second clock phase, the sampled voltage at the capacitor is subtracted from the reference voltage applied to the amplifier input, so that the LED drive is adjusted according to the sampled noise. A signal from the transmitter channel is forwarded to a noise/ripple remover in the receiving channel, to remove transmitter noise from the received signal.

Abstract: A high bandwidth Hall sensor includes, for example, a Hall element for generating a first polarity Hall-signal output current. An amplifier receives, at a first input, the first polarity Hall-signal output current and outputs a feedback current of a second polarity opposite the first polarity in response. The feedback current is coupled to the first input, and the feedback current suppresses an instantaneous voltage generated by the first polarity first Hall element output current at the first input. In an embodiment, the feedback current suppresses the instantaneous voltage generated by first polarity Hall element output current such that the effects of the Hall element source impedance are reduced.

Abstract: A first amplifier has an input to receive a Hall-signal output current from a first Hall element and has an output to output feedback current in response to the received Hall-signal output current. The Hall-signal output current is impeded by an impedance of the first Hall element. The feedback current is coupled to counterpoise the Hall-signal output current at the input, and a voltage at the output is an amplified Hall output signal. A second amplifier generates a high-frequency portion output signal in response to a difference between the amplified Hall output signal and a Hall-signal output signal from a second Hall element. A filter reduces high-frequency content of the high-frequency portion output signal and generates an offset correction signal. A third amplifier generates a corrected Hall signal in response to a difference between the amplified Hall output signal and the offset correction signal.

Abstract: In described examples, a Hall effect sensor includes a primary Hall effect sensor element and an auxiliary Hall effect sensor element. A known magnetic field is applied to the auxiliary Hall effect sensor to produce an auxiliary Hall voltage used in a feedback loop to control the bias current of the auxiliary Hall effect sensor to maintain the auxiliary Hall voltage approximately constant over a range of temperature and other factors. A bias current for the primary Hall effect sensor is controlled to track the bias current of the auxiliary Hall effect sensor to maintain the sensitivity of the primary Hall effect sensor approximately constant over the same range of temperature and other factors.
