Description

Operational amplifier circuit and hall sensor circuit
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of circuits, in particular to an operational amplifier circuit and a Hall sensor circuit.
Background
The Hall element has the advantages of small volume, shock resistance, impact resistance, high frequency, integration on a silicon chip and the like, and is widely applied to a sensor for detecting a magnetic field. Compared with other magnetic sensors, the Hall sensor has the characteristics of high linearity and good consistency, but has the advantages of general sensitivity, large offset voltage relative to induction signals and serious limitation on the measurement accuracy of the Hall sensor. Methods for reducing the influence of offset voltage of a Hall sensor on measurement are mainly divided into two types: static methods and dynamic methods. The static method adopts a mode that a plurality of Hall sensors are connected in parallel to counteract offset voltages of the Hall sensors, and has a general effect, and offset voltages close to the amplitude of the induction signals remain in the method. The dynamic method adopts two of four ports of the periodic rotation excitation Hall sensor, and correspondingly carries out voltage detection on the other two ports, so that offset voltage can be effectively modulated to high frequency, the frequency of the signal is unchanged, and the modulated offset voltage is filtered and eliminated by a low-pass filter, and the signal is reserved. Therefore, in the circuit of the high-precision Hall sensor, the high input impedance (in order to prevent the sensitivity deviation caused by the fact that the excitation current of the Hall element is extracted or injected by the establishment of signals), the high-precision gain and the low noise are important points of design, and the operational amplifier can be matched with the operational amplifier for dynamically eliminating the offset voltage of the Hall sensor.
The common methods are two, namely a current feedback instrument amplifier and a current feedback operational amplifier with a source degeneration resistor. For the current feedback instrument amplifier, as the offset exists between the transconductance unit of the original input and the transconductance unit of the feedback input, the offset and the temperature drift of the transconductance unit can reach 2 percent, which is far greater than the matching offset of the resistance feedback network, and has great influence on the gain. The transconductance units of the two inputs are two noise sources, so that the operational amplifier noise is remarkably increased, and in consideration of low-noise design, the currents of the transconductance units of the two inputs are large enough to reduce noise, and one path of power consumption and one path of area are additionally consumed. For a current feedback operational amplifier with a source degeneration resistor, the bias current of a differential input pair is two current sources, the offset of the two current sources can directly cause the offset of the operational amplifier, the sources of the offset are more, the offset of the operational amplifier is larger, and the ripple wave generated by the offset is larger, so that the signal processing is not facilitated. The MOS tubes can all contribute noise, and multiple paths of large currents are consumed for biasing, so that the MOS tubes are unfavorable for low noise and low power consumption. The amplitude of the input differential signal is transferred to a degradation resistor, the resistance noise is considered, the resistance value is small, under the condition that the input differential signal is large, differential currents on the degradation resistor and an output load resistor are large, the corresponding current sources can meet the maximum differential currents, the power consumption cannot be reduced, and MOS tubes for passing the differential currents also need a large enough area. Therefore, the input range of the operational amplifier is limited in consideration of power consumption, area and circuit stability.
