PRODUCTION DATA
Some motors use digital Hall sensors with open-drain outputs. These sensors can also be used with the MCT8316Z device, with the addition of a few resistors as shown in Figure 9-4.
The negative (HNx) inputs are biased to AVDD / 2 by a pair of resistors between the AVDD pin and ground. For open-collector Hall sensors, an additional pullup resistor to the VREG pin is required on the positive (HPx) input. Again, the AVDD output can usually be used to supply power to the Hall sensors.
