The giant magnetoresistance (GMR) technology

As the development, manufacture and marketing of high performance integrated circuit global leader, Allegro to adopt advanced technology of magnetic induction IC design meets the application requirements.

Allegro new integrationTechnology giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effectIn design adds a tool in the toolbox, can not only meet the needs of new applications, can also expand its IC function in existing applications.

For a given solution (magnet smaller and larger air gap, etc.), GMR is able to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and improve the resolution or reduce the required field.In addition, the plane on the surface of the wafer or IC induction can be used to create new, more powerful differential magnetic solution, this is the plane straight hall sensing technology cannot be achieved.

Allegro is directly to the GMR technology integration in the semiconductor wafer on one of the few several IC manufacturers.This integration method has many advantages, for example, can avoid the extra chip bonding between in order to improve the reliability, as well as the integration of current-carrying wire or positioning element implementation than the integral design of the external benchmark is simpler.
