7.1.4 Magnetic Limit Check

The TMAG3001 enables magnetic limit checks for single or multiple axes at the same time. The device can be configured to be sensitive for X, Y and Z magnetic axes thresholds when THR_SEL[1:0] is set to 2h.

Table 7-1 Register Configuration for Magnetic Limit Check When THR_SEL[1:0] = 1h
Register Name

Register alias when THR_SEL[1:0] = 1h

Description

THR_Config_1

X_THR_LO

Sets the lower threshold limit for X channel
THR_Config_2 Y_THR_LO Sets the lower threshold limit for Y channel
THR_Config_3 Z_THR_LO Sets the lower threshold limit for Z channel
Table 7-2 Register Configuration for Magnetic Limit Check When THR_SEL[1:0] = 2h and Angle_EN[1:0] = 0h
Register Name

Register alias when THR_SEL[1:0] = 2h and Angle_EN[1:0] = 0h

Description
Sensor_Config_4

X_THR_HI

 Sets the upper threshold limit for X channel
Sensor_Config_5 Y_THR_HI Sets the upper threshold limit for Y channel
Sensor_Config_6 Z_THR_HI Sets the upper threshold limit for Z channel

The magnetic higher and lower thresholds are 8-bit, 2's complement numbers, with the possible range of threshold entrees to be ±128. Both the higher and lower threshold limits can be enabled independently. No threshold comparison is done if the thresholds are set to 0h. The lower threshold for X channel can be calculated using Equation 13.

Equation 13. T h r e s h o l d   ( m T ) = T H R _ C O N F I G _ 1 128 × M a g n e t i c   R a n g e × ( 1 + X _ Y _ R A N G E )

For example, for the A1 device version, the default magnetic range is ±40mT. If X_Y_RANGE=0 and THR_SEL= 10b, for a threshold configuration of 0000111b in THR_CONFIG_1, the X channel lower threshold is given by

Equation 14. X   L o w   T h r e s h o l d   ( m T ) = 7 128     × 40   m T   =   2.1875   m T

Figure 7-5 and Figure 7-5 show examples of magnetic limit cross detection events while the field going above, below, exiting a magnetic band, and entering a magnetic band. The device keeps generating an interrupt with each new conversion if the magnetic fields remain in the shaded regions in the figures. The MAG_THR_DIR register bit helps select the out of range regions for threshold crossings. The magnetic limit check can be performed in standby, continuous or wake and sleep operating modes.
