The MTJ cell is constructed of two magnetic layers separated by a thin oxide which serves as a tunnel oxide. One of the two magnetic layers has a fixed magnetic orientation and it is called reference layer. The other magnetic layer, called sensing layer, has flexibility of changing orientation in the presence of magnetic field, leading to the change of the sensor resistance. Thus, the sensor acts as a magnetic switch whereby it shows high resistance when magnetic field is absent and low resistance when magnetic field is present. 1 3 The Crocus CTSR400C series is a family of magnetic switches designed for sensing a wide range of magnetic fields. The advantages of the CTSR400C series include high magnetic sensitivity, no bias current, low power consumption, flexible supply voltage, small form factor, and low cost.

The MLX90393 is a micropower triaxis magnetometer and is offering maximal flexibility at minimal size. With its 3 x 3mm footprint, it can fit in the tiniest of assemblies. It provides a digital output proportional to the sensed magnetic flux density along the 3 perpendicular axes of symmetry of the sensor. But the miniature sensor is mostly characterized by the fact that it can interchange measurement speed for both current consumption and noise on the digital output signal, making it the raw building block for any magnetic sensing application up to +85°C. An external microcontroller can then combine the measurement data in order to define the position of the magnet with respect to the sensor. All that at a selectable duty cycle of 0.1% to 100%. •Micropower (2.2V to 3.6V, <5µA idle current) •Low voltage I/O (1.8V - VDD) •SPI (3+4-wire) and I2C interface, slave node •16-bit XYZ magnetic and T thermal measurement •QFN 3 x 3 package, 16-leads •In-application programmable (gain, mode, axes, …) •Ta = -20°C to +85°C APPLICATIONS •Sensing element for the Internet of Things (IoT) •Metering •Impeller-based meters 360° impeller position detection incl. anti tampering •Meter mechanical counter digit readout •General triaxial anti tampering detection •Gauss-meter •HMI •Joystick with push •Rotary knob with push •Lever/slide switch linear stroke •Valve position, industrial sensing •Robotics and factory automation To buy products or download data, go to www.FutureElectronics.com/FTM 8 Human Machine Interface (HMI) The MLX90393 lends itself to a wide variety of HMIs such as joystick (Gimball, Ball&Socket) with push detection, rotary knobs with push function and linear strokes by levers or sliding switches. The sensor output data needs to be post-processed in order to calculate the angles or norms of the vector in order to get the desired position signal(s). This requires off-chip computation, and is a clear advantage in system level partitioning by having one microcontroller interfacing with many sensors on the same bus. The MLX90393 supports 3 different operating modes: 1. Single measurement mode •Command-based •Trigger-based 2. Burst mode 3. Wake up on change mode In single measurement mode, a bus master is requesting the sensor to perform a measurement, either by transmission of a command, or by issuing a trigger signal. Whenever the sensor is in burst mode, it is waking up and going back to sleep at an in-application programmable duty cycle. Finally, the wake up on change function offers the same functionality as the burst mode, but only setting the interrupt pin high whenever the latest measurement differs more than a programmable threshold from either the previous measurement or the first measurement when entering the mode. 1.800.675.1619 • www.FutureElectronics.com 2 4 1 SETTING NEW STANDARDS IN SENSORS 3 1 The Measurement Specialties (MEAS) HTU21D series sensor is a new digital humidity sensor with temperature output, embedded in a reflow solderable dual flat no leads (DFN) package with a small 3 x 3 x 0.9mm footprint.

You are driving across town on a dark, snowy evening to pick up your child from after-school practice. You have the radio blaring and the navigation system on – you never turn them off. It’s a cold night, so the heater fans and seat warmers are running at their highest level. You pull up to a red light, and the car’s automatic stop-start system shuts the engine off to conserve fuel. When you hit the pedal to move off, however, nothing happens. You try to start the car manually, but the starter just whines and the headlights go dim. What’s happened? All the fancy features and new technology in the car have drained its battery, and now you are stranded in traffic with a child waiting for you across town. This scenario is all too familiar, and is becoming more common as new vehicles come equipped with an increasing number of innovative systems that rely on the one component of the electrical system that has seen almost no innovation since the 1950s: the lead-acid battery. Lead-Acid Battery Technology The lead-acid battery has been an integral part of a vehicle’s electrical system since 1912; Cadillac was the first to harness its power, and turned the automotive industry upside down by introducing the self-starter. And the lead-acid battery is still the most viable energy-storage unit for vehicles, because of its performance, ruggedness and low cost. Many different technologies have been mooted as replacements for lead-acid; all have been either too expensive, too fragile or too large. It is 12 true that the lead in car batteries is highly toxic. But the environmental concerns are mitigated because lead is the most recycled metal in the world. It is estimated that some 97% of all battery lead in the US is recycled. car goes straight from starting to idling in traffic, the reduced engine speed will not allow the alternator to adequately recharge the battery. If the motor is not allowed to speed up, the battery dies. Unfortunately, improvements to the lead-acid battery have not been anywhere near able to keep up with the technological advances seen elsewhere in cars and trucks. According to the 2010 Battery Council International Technical Subcommittee, which conducts studies to find the failure modes in recently removed batteries, plate/grid-related failures had actually increased by 9% compared to five years previously. It is generally assumed that this increase in failures is caused by the extra electrical stress on the battery caused by the increase in the number of electrical systems in new vehicles. Stratification may have the same causes as sulfation. It occurs when the battery is held at a low state of charge, only moderately cycled and never fully charged. While the cause may be the same, what happens is very different. In a stratified battery, the electrolyte separates from the liquid mixture contained within the battery, and accumulates in the lower regions of the battery. The light acid in the upper regions causes the plates in these areas to be more likely to succumb to corrosion, while the highly concentrated lower region causes sulfation on this section of the lead plates. Why Lead-Acid Batteries Die In addition to the long-term effects of corrosion and sulfation, stratification causes short-term effects in the form of reduced cranking performance when starting the car. Stratification also causes the battery to have a false rise in the voltage reading, which makes the battery look more charged than it actually is to most measurement systems. There are three main causes of lead-acid battery failure. They are corrosion, sulfation, and acid stratification. They result from over-charge conditions, under-charge and abuse, respectively. Corrosion is when the lead plates break down over time; eventually, portions of them might deteriorate completely. Corrosion of the lead plates in a battery is inevitable because they are immersed in acid. This process accelerates when conditions such as over-charging, high depth of discharge and over-temperature occur. The key to extending the life of a battery is not to stop corrosion but to manage those causes of it that are controllable. Sulfation occurs when a battery is not allowed to be fully charged. This is a condition that has been made substantially more common by the increased number of electronics systems in new cars. After starting a vehicle, the lead-acid battery needs time to properly recharge. If the Keeping a Car Battery Healthy The natural question resulting from this explanation of lead-acid technology is, how can these modes of failure be prevented from happening? The sad answer is that they cannot. These failures will inevitably occur, and even under the best of operating conditions the battery will eventually die from corrosion. Early death, however, can be prevented. What is more, the driver can be notified of impending natural death if the vehicle is provided with a sophisticated Battery Management System (BMS). 1.800.675.1619 • www.FutureElectronics.com DESIGN NOTE A BMS will be able to accurately monitor all battery parameters, including current, voltage and temperature. If the device is unable to monitor all of these parameters it will not be able to identify whether a battery is in good or bad health. For instance, the increased voltage caused by stratification will be misleading to a meter that only considers voltage measurement when determining a battery’s State of Charge (SOC). The BMS should take these three measurements together, and provide them to a higher level controller for an estimation of SOC. The SOC is basically an estimation of how much energy is left in the battery. Like a vehicle’s fuel gauge, it shows how ‘full’ a battery is. The SOC can be calculated by coulomb counting. Coulomb counting is a method of measuring the current into or out of a battery, and integrating it over time. If the battery’s capacity is known, it is simple to calculate how full it is. In the case of automotive batteries, however, it is not so straightforward. This is in part because corrosion and sulfation occur throughout the life of the battery. This means that a battery will be losing capacity over its entire life span. Therefore a fully charged battery will not contain as much stored energy after a few years of service as that same fully charged battery when it was new. State of Health (SOH) readings help the measurement system to compensate for this decline in capacity over time. An SOH value gives an estimation of the percentage of the original maximum capacity. A new battery would have an SOH of 100%, whereas an older battery might have an SOH of 85%. If an older battery is fully charged it will show a full SOC. Since it is older, however, the maximum that the battery can be charged to is 85% of the original capacity, meaning that even though the system says the battery is full and the charging system stops as it should, the car will still know that the SOC level will fall more quickly since it is being measured on a smaller scale. SOH estimations made with a good BMS thereby remove the false capacity readings that other measurement systems might produce. Using Information from a BMS So how could the scenario presented at the start of this article have been prevented by the use of BMS data? A BMS would monitor the SOC and SOH of the battery. Therefore the vehicle could have turned on warning lights or alarms weeks or months before the battery died on that night. Of course, drivers routinely ignore warning lights. So the system could have sensed imminent danger and shut off non-essential systems (such as seat warmers and radio) to help maintain the battery’s SOC. In addition, the vehicle’s control system would have prevented the car from shutting off the engine at the red light, given the risk that it would not start up again. Vishay Dale Intelligent Battery Sensor An example of an ideal sensor for use in an automotive BMS is the Vishay Dale Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS). The Vishay Dale IBS measures the voltage across the battery’s terminals, the charge or discharge current flowing through the battery, and the temperature of the battery measured through thermal conduction between the battery post and the IBS unit itself, using a WSBS8518L100 shunt resistor (see Figure 1). All three measurements are taken almost simultaneously to ensure accurate measurements even when operating conditions are changing rapidly. The Vishay IBS uses a LIN communication protocol to send the results of these measurements to the vehicle’s ECU or other control systems 1.800.675.1619 • www.FutureElectronics.com WBPK600L0A Product Summary Resistance 100µΩ Voltage Range 4V to 18V Current Range (Continuous) ±600A Current Range (Pulsed) ±2000A Temperature Range -40°C to +115°C Figure 1: key features of the WBPK600L0A battery sensor The Vishay Dale IBS is built to handle the full range of automotive operating conditions. Its -40°C to +115°C temperature rating allows the IBS to survive conditions that would damage even the newest lead-acid batteries. The voltage measurement range lets the unit continue to retrieve data under both battery over-charge and under-charge conditions. Through proprietary software the device is able to monitor the full current at both ends of the voltage and temperature extremes, with minimal loss of accuracy. Conclusion Future automobiles will continue to have more and more electronic systems that will make it even harder for the lead-acid battery to maintain the correct output over many years of reliable operation. A high performance BMS provides both the driver and the vehicle’s control systems with the information they need to prolong the life of the battery and to manage the risk of failure effectively.

In the past few years, however, several updates to the medical safety regulatory standard based on IEC60601-1 3rd edition have been brought in. This primary standard also has collateral standards, one of which defines the requirements for electromagnetic disturbances and compliance (EMC) requirements. Then in February 2014, the IEC issued the 4th edition of IEC60601-1-2, ‘General requirements for basic safety and essential performance – Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic disturbances – Requirements and tests’. Under review by the nations of the European Union, it is expected to be adopted in or around 2016 as a European Norm (EN standard). This marks an important change: designers of medical equipment should certainly plan ahead and prepare for its introduction, as it will have a noticeable impact on the professional and home healthcare markets. The force of the changes will be felt particularly strongly in the areas of: •AC input-voltage power drop-outs •ESD immunity •Susceptibility to electric and magnetic fields For power supplies used in medical devices, the main changes in the IEC60601-1-2 4th edition are shown in Tables 1 and 2. The MB65 AC/DC power supply from SL Power Electronics was developed to provide system designers with an easy means to achieve compliance with the new 4th edition standard. It is especially well suited to home-healthcare equipment.

Clearly, the regulatory bodies have recognized that new, high levels of ESD may be generated by the synthetic and natural materials used in the home and in professional institutions. In particular, the continuous AC input range now goes to 85VAC, down from 90VAC. This offers extra margin for home healthcare environments, in which power quality is variable, and less well controlled than in hospitals and clinics. The MB65 also meets the emissions requirements for home health environments; in fact, it stays inside the threshold for conducted and radiated emissions for Class B compliance with a margin – no small accomplishment (see Figure 1). This simplifies the design of medical equipment at the system level, since it eliminates the need for external components or circuitry dedicated to filtering or shielding Class B emissions. This can provide worthwhile cost savings in the end equipment. Another area seeing a noteworthy change is in the level of ESD protection required. This has increased from 6kV to 8kV (contact discharge), Designed for long life, the 65W MB65 has a compact 2” x 3.5” footprint. It provides a high output power with convection cooling, and 14 70% UT; 25/30 cycles. Null Figure 1: MB65S24K, typical conducted emissions at full load, 230VAC. offers excellent safety isolation, including two means of patient protection (type BF). This model family is also designed to operate at higher temperatures up to +70°C while still providing 40W of continuous output power. While supporting this high output, careful attention was paid to power losses, since these 1.800.675.1619 • www.FutureElectronics.com DESIGN NOTE serve to limit product life and maximum operating temperature. In order to achieve power density of 7W/in3 and still allow for up to 65W of output power with convection cooling in such a small unit, power conversion efficiency needed to be maximized. The efficiency of the MB65 is as high as 88% to 90%, which lowers power losses. This in turn markedly lowers the scale of the internal temperature rise in normal operation, and also reduces the requirement for cooling. In fact, power losses from the power supply are the dominant source of heat that raises internal temperature. Figure 2 shows the power losses for different power supplies: one with 85% efficiency, a second with 88% and a third with 90%. While the 3-5 basis point difference in efficiency may not seem important, the better comparison is that in power losses. The more efficient product has 30% to 37% lower losses. The less efficient products have a higher internal temperature because of their higher losses, and the reliability and expected life of the more efficient product will be much higher.

It can be used to determine the failure rate difference when comparing operating temperature conditions. For example, at +70°C, πT = 6.0. If you were able to reduce the operating temperature to +60°C, π T = 4.0, so the failure rate would drop to +66.7% of that at +70°C. While the product failure rate is a function of many variables, there is a marked impact from reducing the temperature of components. Figure 3: plot of failure rate vs temperature, typical for electrolytic capacitors and power semiconductors Figure 2: comparison of power efficiency and power losses Temperature and failure rate In general, devices and components fail faster at higher temperatures. The expression below shows the temperature factor as a function of temperature with respect to +30°C. It is a nonlinear function, and clearly shows the dramatic impact temperature has on component failure rates. For example, the failure rate is 1.6 times higher when operating at +40°C than at +30°C. Temperature factors, π T are derived by the following expression: Product operating life is often determined by its life-limiting components such as electrolytic capacitors. The failure mechanism of electrolytic capacitors is the loss of capacitance and increased ESR as the electrolyte seeps out through the end seal of the capacitor. High temperature accelerates this process. The following expression has been experimentally determined to express the relationship between temperature and deterioration of the capacitor. L x = Lo∙ Ktemp = Lo∙B(To –Tx )/10 B = Temperature acceleration factor ≈ 2 To = Manufacturer’s maximum rated temperature for the selected capacitor (°C) Tx = Actual ambient temperature of the capacitor (°C) Source: Nippon Chemi-Con, Aluminium Electrolytic Capacitors 2008 1.800.675.1619 • www.FutureElectronics.com Figure 4: electrolytic capacitor life estimate, life factor as a function of capacitor temperature Based on a +105°C rated capacitor, at its +105°C rated operating temperature and base life, KT Factor = 1. At +70°C, KT Factor is = 11.3, so for a 5,000 hour rated capacitor, operating at +70°C, its rated life is 65,500 hours, or approximately 6.4 years. The life of the capacitor is strongly affected by its operating temperature. For products requiring long operating life, long life (5,000 to 10,000 hours) rated capacitors should be selected, and their operating temperature kept to a minimum. In the MB65, high-quality components are used at relatively low operating temperature, since the high conversion efficiency of the power supply keeps power losses to a minimum. This model family is also designed to operate when necessary at higher temperatures up to +70°C while still providing 40W of continuous output power. In fact, the MB65 leads the way for reliable, compact power at a competitive cost while also compliant now with the EMC requirements of the 4th edition of the IEC60601-1-2 standard.
