12 Alignment Mode
The alignment mode simplifies centering the magnet over the center of the chip to gain maximum accuracy.
Alignment mode can be enabled with the falling edge of CSn while Prog = logic high (Figure 14). The Data bits
D11-D0 of the SSI change to a 12-bit displacement amplitude output. A high value indicates large X or Y
displacement, but also higher absolute magnetic field strength. The magnet is properly aligned, when the difference
between highest and lowest value over one full turn is at a minimum.
Under normal conditions, a properly aligned magnet will result in a reading of less than 128 over a full turn.
The MagINCn and MagDECn indicators will be = 1 when the alignment mode reading is < 128. At the same time,
both hardware pins MagINCn (#1) and MagDECn (#2) will be pulled to VSS. A properly aligned magnet will therefore
produce a MagINCn = MagDECn = 1 signal throughout a full 360° turn of the magnet.
Stronger magnets or short gaps between magnet and IC may show values larger than 128. These magnets are still
properly aligned as long as the difference between highest and lowest value over one full turn is at a minimum.
The alignment mode can be reset to normal operation by a power-on-reset (disconnect / re-connect power supply) or
by a falling edge on CSn with Prog = low.
