Autocalibration
Autocalibration enables online parameter calculation, and therefore reduces angle error due to temperature and
lifetime drifts.
The TLE5012B is a pre-calibrated sensor; at start-up the parameters stored in the laser fuses are loaded into flip-
flops. During operation, the TLE5012B needs 1.5 revolutions to generate new autocalibration parameters. The
parameters are updated with new autocalibration parameters according to the mode selected via the AUTOCAL
bits (Mode 2 register). The parameters are updated in a smooth way to avoid an angle jump on the output; only
one Least-Significant Bit (LSB) will be changed within the chosen range or time. Once the parameters are updated,
a new autocalibration parameter generation starts, as autocalibration is done continuously.
AUTOCAL Modes:
•
00: No autocalibration
•
01: Autocalibration Mode 1. Parameters are updated by one LSB at every update time t
upd
(dependent on
FIR_MD setting) till the new autocalibration parameter values are reached.
•
10: Autocalibration Mode 2. Parameters are updated by one LSB only. After the update, autocalibration will
already calculate new parameters again.
•
11: Autocalibration Mode 3. Parameters are updated by one LSB at every angle range of 11.25° till the new
autocalibration parameter values are reached.
