Power-On Time (tPO). When the supply is ramped to its operat-

components before responding to an input magnetic field.
Power-On Time, tPO , is defined as the time it takes for the output
voltage to settle within ±10% of its steady state value under an
applied magnetic field, after the power supply has reached its
minimum specified operating voltage, VCC(min), as shown in the

Improving Sensing System Accuracy Using the FILTER Pin

an RC filter to the output of a sensor IC can result in undesirable
device output attenuation — even for DC signals. The ACS714 contains an internal resistor, a FILTER pin connec-
tion to the printed circuit board, and an internal buffer amplifier.
Signal attenuation, ∆VATT , is a result of the resistive divider
