Product details
Overview
LMP91300NHZT from Texas Instruments is an industrial-grade analog front end (AFE) IC designed specifically for inductive proximity sensors. It directly converts the resistance-to-parallel (RP) impedance of an external LC tank into a 16-bit digital value, supports programmable detection thresholds (798 Ω to 3.93 MΩ), operates from 6.5 V to 40 V loop supply, and delivers NPN/PNP 3-wire output switching with integrated LED driver - enabling robust metal detection in factory automation systems.
For engineers reviewing the LMP91300NHZT datasheet, LMP91300NHZT pinout, LMP91300NHZT application, or LMP91300NHZT equivalent, key selection considerations include its RP-to-digital conversion architecture, digital temperature compensation using external NTC, programmable oscillator frequency (5 kHz–5 MHz), overload protection via external SENSE resistor, and WQFN-24 package compatibility with 4 mm × 5 mm industrial sensor housings.
Technical Context
The LMP91300NHZT implements a direct RP-to-digital converter architecture that eliminates analog-to-digital conversion errors associated with traditional amplitude- or frequency-based sensing. Its internal oscillator sustains stable amplitude across the full RP range (798 Ω–3.93 MΩ) and supports programmable oscillation frequencies from 5 kHz to 5 MHz via external CFA/CFB capacitors.
Detection logic uses digitally compensated RP values referenced against programmable high/low thresholds (16-bit resolution) with independent hysteresis control. Temperature compensation relies on a calibrated 2-byte-per-4°C Look-Up Table (registers 0x00–0x5D), optimized for Murata NCP03WF104F05RL (β = 4250) NTC sensors, and applies linear interpolation for 1°C resolution.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar inductive proximity sensor AFE applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS3933-BTST | RF-based ASK receiver IC; no integrated RP-to-digital converter or LC oscillator - requires external RF front end and microcontroller. | Designed for wireless wake-up and low-power proximity in battery-operated devices, not industrial 24 V loop-powered sensors. | Select only if system requires sub-µA sleep current and wireless wake-up capability; not suitable for direct replacement in wired industrial proximity nodes. |
| MAX1452ACM+ | Analog signal conditioner with PGA, DAC, and EEPROM; lacks integrated oscillator, digital temperature LUT, or SWDRV output driver. | Targeted at strain-gauge and RTD sensor conditioning; requires external MCU for RP calculation and decision logic. | Choose when conditioning non-inductive sensors (e.g., pressure transducers) with high-precision analog trimming - not a functional substitute for LMP91300NHZT's integrated proximity AFE architecture. |
Compared with AS3933-BTST and MAX1452ACM+, the LMP91300NHZT uniquely integrates LC oscillator, RP-to-digital conversion, digital temperature compensation LUT, and 3-wire output driver in a single industrial-grade IC - eliminating external microcontrollers, ADCs, and discrete protection components required by alternatives.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the LMP91300NHZT in an inductive proximity sensor design?
The LMP91300NHZT serves as a complete analog front end that directly converts the resistance-to-parallel (RP) impedance of an external LC tank into a 16-bit digital value. It performs digital temperature compensation using an external NTC sensor, compares the result against programmable thresholds, and drives an external NPN or PNP transistor via its SWDRV and EXT B pins - all within a single WQFN-24 package. This eliminates the need for external microcontrollers, ADCs, or analog compensation circuitry in industrial proximity sensor modules.
Does the LMP91300NHZT support both NPN and PNP 3-wire configurations?
Yes, the LMP91300NHZT natively supports both NPN and PNP 3-wire configurations through register-controlled output polarity and pin functionality. Pins V+/EXT E and EXT B route to the external transistor's emitter and base respectively, while SWDRV provides current-sinking or sourcing capability (2–11 mA) to drive the collector or drain. Configuration is performed via the OUT_CONFIG_INIT and OUT_CONFIG_FNL registers, allowing field reprogramming without hardware changes.
How does the LMP91300NHZT implement temperature compensation without external analog components?
The LMP91300NHZT implements digital temperature compensation using a user-calibrated 48-entry Look-Up Table (LUT) stored in registers 0x00–0x5D. This LUT maps temperature (−48 °C to +136 °C in 4 °C increments) to gain correction factors applied to RP measurements. The IC reads voltage from an external NTC (e.g., Murata NCP03WF104F05RL), interpolates between LUT entries for 1 °C resolution, and adjusts the RP-to-digital conversion result before threshold comparison - removing the need for analog thermistors, op-amps, or trim pots.
What protection features does the LMP91300NHZT provide against output short circuits?
The LMP91300NHZT provides integrated overload protection by monitoring voltage across an external SENSE resistor (RSENSE). When the drop exceeds ~310 mV, it enters short-circuit mode and toggles SWDRV with a programmable duty cycle (0.1% or 0.8%, i.e., 30 µs ON per cycle). This limits average current to I = 480 mV / RSENSE and prevents thermal damage to the external transistor. Recovery occurs automatically once the SENSE voltage falls below threshold.
Can the LMP91300NHZT be used with LC tanks outside the specified 5 kHz–5 MHz oscillation range?
No - the LMP91300NHZT's oscillator architecture is validated and characterized only for external LC tanks producing oscillation frequencies between 5 kHz and 5 MHz. Operation outside this range may cause unstable RP measurement, increased noise susceptibility, or failure to meet timing specifications for response time (tRESP) and recovery (trec). The CFA and CFB pins accept external capacitors to tune frequency within this band, but no guarantee is provided for operation beyond it.
