Popis: The large linear dynamic range tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) sensors were designed and successfully fabricated in 8 inch Silicon process line for current / magnetic sensing applications. In this paper, the TMR sensors show their performances strongly depend on wafer etching conditions and aspect ratios (ARs) of magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs). During the fine-tuning of etching conditions and AR of MTJs, the packaged TMR sensors have large linear dynamic range (> 200 Oe) and suitable characteristics to apply in current measurement system.
