Description
The IPS2200 is a magnet-free, inductive position sensor ICs that can be used for high-speed absolute position sensing in industrial, medical, and consumer applications. The IPS2200 uses the physical principle of eddy currents to detect the position of a simple metallic target that is moving above a set of coils, consisting of one transmitter coil and two receiver coils.

FEATUREs
• Position sensing based on an inductive principle
• Cost effective; no magnet required
• Immune to magnetic stray fields; no shielding
   required
• Suitable for harsh environments and extreme
   temperatures
• Differential and single-ended sine and cosine outputs
• Digital incremental outputs: 4 counts per period
• Nonvolatile user-configurable memory,
   programmable via I2C or SPI interface
• Single IC supports on-axis and off-axis rotation,
   linear motion, and arc motion sensing
• Adaptable to any full-scale angle range
• High accuracy: ≤ 0.2% full scale
• Rotation sensing up to 360º angle range
• ±18V over-voltage and reverse-polarity protection on
   output pins
• Fast diagnostic alarm through interrupt pin
• Wide operation temperature: -40°C up to +125°C
• Supply voltage programmable for 3.0V to 3.6V or
   4.5V to 5.5V
• Small 16-TSSOP package (4.4 5.0 mm body)

Typical Applications
• Rotor position detection for brushless DC motors;
   adaptable to any pole pair count
• Replacement of brushless resolvers
• Magnet-free rotor speed sensors
