Variable Reluctance Sensor Interfaces with
Differential Input and Adaptive Peak Threshold
General Description
The MAX9924–MAX9927 variable reluctance (VR or mag-
netic coil) sensor interface devices are ideal for position
and speed sensing for automotive crankshafts,
camshafts, transmission shafts, etc. These devices inte-
grate a precision amplifier and comparator with selectable
adaptive peak threshold and zero-crossing circuit blocks
that generate robust output pulses even in the presence
of substantial system noise or extremely weak VR signals.
The MAX9926/MAX9927 are dual versions of the
MAX9924/MAX9925, respectively. The MAX9924/
MAX9926 combine matched resistors with a CMOS input
precision operational amplifier to give high CMRR over a
wide range of input frequencies and temperatures. The
MAX9924/MAX9926 differential amplifiers provide a fixed
gain of 1V/V. The MAX9925/MAX9927 make all three ter-
minals of the internal operational amplifier available,
allowing greater flexibility for gain. The MAX9926 also
provides a direction output that is useful for quadrature-
connected VR sensors that are used in certain high-per-
formance engines. These devices interface with both
new-generation differential VR sensors as well as legacy
single-ended VR sensors.
The MAX9924/MAX9925 are available in the 10-pin
µMAX
®
package, while the MAX9926/MAX9927 are
available in the 16-pin QSOP package. All devices are
specified over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temper-
ature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
