20100207222 | Hall Effect Element Having a Hall Plate with a Perimeter Having Indented Regions - A Hall effect element includes a Hall plate with an outer perimeter. The outer perimeter includes four corner regions, each tangential to two sides of a square outer boundary associated with the Hall plate, and each extending along two sides of the square outer boundary by a corner extent. The outer perimeter also includes four indented regions. Each one of the four indented regions deviates inward toward a center of the Hall plate. The Hall plate further includes a square core region centered with and smaller than the square outer boundary. A portion of each one of the four indented regions is tangential to a respective side of the square core region. Each side of the square core region has a length greater than twice the corner extent and less than a length of each side of the square outer boundary. | 08-19-2010 |
