Definitions
- the invention relates to a circuit configuration for obtaining a binary output signal from a current signal delivered by a magnetic-field sensor.
- Anti-lock braking systems represent such an application. In comparison with voltage interfaces, they exhibit greater immunity from interference, greater reliability in detecting interruptions at the supply-voltage terminal or the ground cable, and the advantage of being able to omit a third conductor connection for the transmission of voltage signals.
- Transmitted in a binary current interface is a current signal essentially alternating in pulse shape between two current values.
- a current-sensing resistor with a high resistance value could in fact be used to detect the current values, enabling the voltage occurring via the magnetic-field sensor to be reduced on transmission of the higher of the two current values.
- the supply voltage would have to be increased in order that, when the higher of the two current values is transmitted, the magnetic-field sensor can still be supplied with the minimum voltage necessary for its operation. This would, however, result in an unnecessarily high voltage at the sensor during transmission of the lower of the two current values.
- Known from US patent 6,096,187 is a measuring device for an oxygen sensor for determining an air/fuel mixture ratio.
- a voltage- supply unit supplies electrodes of a detecting apparatus for air/fuel mixture ratios with a specified voltage when the air/fuel mixture ratio is to be detected.
- a first voltage obtained from a constant supply voltage via a first resistance voltage divider is supplied to the non-inverting input of a first operational amplifier.
- a second voltage, obtained from the constant supply voltage via a second resistance voltage divider is supplied to the non-inverting input of a second operational amplifier.
- the first and the second voltages are directed to electrodes of the detecting apparatus for air/fuel mixture ratios via the first and second operational amplifier respectively.
- a current flowing through the detecting apparatus for air/fuel mixture ratios is detected with the aid of a current- sensing resistor and output to a microcomputer via an A/D converter.

- a voltage- supply unit to supply the magnetic-field sensor with a stabilized supply voltage.
- a measuring device for tapping the pulse- shaped current signal from the magnetic-field sensor and for delivering a measuring signal.
- a signal-conditioning stage for forming an analogue voltage signal from the measuring signal is a signal-conditioning stage for forming an analogue voltage signal from the measuring signal.
- An analogue/digital converter stage for obtaining a digital voltage signal from the analogue voltage signal.
- a control stage for obtaining a first and a second signal value from the digital voltage signal, wherein the signal values represent the two current values of the current signal, alternating in pulse shape, as supplied by the magnetic-field sensor. for supplying the currently obtained first and second signal values to a memory device after every pulse- shaped change in the current signal. for identifying a digital changeover-threshold signal in accordance with a first algorithm from the real-time first and second signal values.
- the memory device for storing the currently obtained first and second signal values.
- a digital/analogue converter stage for obtaining an analogue changeover- threshold signal from the digital changeover-threshold signal.
- a comparator for comparing the analogue voltage signal with the analogue changeover-threshold signal and for creating the binary output signal in accordance with this comparison.
- the difference between the two current values of the current signal alternating in pulse shape, as necessary for the proper recognition of the current values and for distinguishing between them, can also be advantageously reduced to a minimum.
- the circuit configuration in accordance with the invention represents an active receiver circuit for current interfaces.
- the receiver circuit undertakes the task of maintaining the voltage supplied to the magnetic-field sensor at a constant level.
- the current values delivered by the magnetic-field sensor are measured in operation and logged.
- the optimum value for the changeover-threshold signal is determined from the stored current values and used for detecting or distinguishing between the current values delivered by the magnetic-field sensor. This enables the said adjustment of the difference in these current values to a minimum.
- the control stage is further equipped for the creation of an error signal in accordance with a second algorithm in the event that the first and second signal values obtained lie outside a specifiable tolerance range, and for delivery of this error signal to an error- signal output. Error recognition can hereby be realized in simple fashion.
- the control stage is further equipped for the creation, in accordance with a third algorithm, of a supply- voltage control signal from the first and second signal values obtained, and the supply- voltage control signal is supplied to the voltage- supply unit for controlling the supply voltage to a minimum possible value for the error-free creation of the output signal.
- a further reduction in power consumption of the magnetic-field sensor can hereby be advantageously obtained without any losses in recognition of the signal values.
- the voltage-supply unit preferably comprises an amplifier stage, with feedback via the measuring device, to supply the stabilized supply voltage.
- the signal-conditioning stage advantageously comprises a voltage- divider device with a series circuit containing a zener diode and a resistor, wherein the measuring signal is supplied to the series circuit and the analogue voltage signal is tapped off at the resistor.
- the signal- conditioning stage comprises a high-pass circuit, to the input of which the measuring signal is supplied, and from the output of which the analogue voltage signal is delivered.
