Description

There is self-inspection and reset the magnetic field sensor of wire
[technical field]
The present invention relates to magnetic field sensor, be capable of magnetic induction layer reset and self-inspection particularly to a kind of Magnetic field sensor.
[background technology]
The magnetic field sensor being currently based on magnetoresistance has been applied very common, such as anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) magnetic field sensor, giant magnetoresistance (GMR) magnetic field sensor and tunnel magneto (TMR) magnetic field pass Sensor.
In general, magnetic field sensor based on magnetoresistance is when magnetic direction and size change, and device is electric Resistance can change therewith.The structure of magnetic field sensor generally includes one layer of soft magnetic materials, such as iron, cobalt, nickel, Ferro-cobalt boron alloy or dilval (permalloy) etc..When magnetic direction and size change, soft magnetic materials The direction of magnetization of layer changes therewith, thus causes the change of resistance.
In order to obtain the exact value in magnetic field, before magnetic field sensor is measured, described soft magnetosphere needs to be reset. Usual way is that logical super-high-current is strong to produce in the wire of the basic sensing unit of next-door neighbour's magnetic field sensor Magnetic field, so that all of magnetic domain of basic sensing unit is all magnetized and arranges along magnetic easy axis direction, and The direction of magnetic easy axis is determined by the anisotropy of the basic sensing unit of magnetic field sensor.Lead described in controlling The sense of current flow through on line, the direction of magnetic domain can arrange along two contrary directions that magnetic easy axis is parallel. Generally this operation is referred to as resetting (SET) and resetting (RESET) again.Except can be to the magnetic of soft magnetosphere Changing and initialize, SET/RESET may also help in the magnetization recovering soft magnetosphere.If residing magnetic field sensing Device is disturbed by extraneous high-intensity magnetic field, and interference magnetic field removes the magnetic domain of rear described soft magnetosphere and may not recover to initially State, thus cause measure error.By reset/resetting, the arrangement of magnetic domain can be resumed again.
