Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are described corresponding to wide bandwidth hall sensing circuitry. An example circuit includes a first hall effect sensor configured to output a first voltage corresponding to a magnetic field; an amplifier to output an amplified voltage by amplifying the first voltage; a second hall effect sensor configured to output a second voltage corresponding to the magnetic field, the second hall effect sensor operating using a spinning technique to toggle a bias current between terminals of the second hall effect sensor, the spinning technique to remove a first offset corresponding to the second hall effect sensor; and offset reduction circuitry configured to: determine a second offset corresponding to the first hall effect sensor based on the first voltage and the second voltage; and generate an output based on the second offset, the amplifier to adjust the amplified voltage based on the output.

Wide bandwidth hall sensing circuitry with offset compensation and gain calibration

A current sense amplifier includes a first amplifier stage, a second amplifier stage, a switch, and a common-mode transient detector. The first amplifier stage has a first amplifier output, a second amplifier output, a first amplifier input, and a second amplifier input. The second amplifier stage has a third amplifier input coupled to the first amplifier output, and a fourth amplifier input coupled to the second amplifier output. The switch has a switch control input, a first switch terminal coupled to the third amplifier input, and a second switch terminal coupled to the fourth amplifier input. The common-mode transient detector circuit has a detector output, a first detector input and a second detector input. The detector output is coupled to the switch control input. The first detector input is coupled to the first amplifier input. The second detector input is coupled to the second amplifier input.
