Low-Cost Hall-Effect Sensor Family
The HAL 2xy Hall switch family is produced in CMOS technology. The sensors include a temperature-compensated Hall plate with active offset compensation, a comparator, and an open-drain output transistor.
FEATUREs
✦ Operates from 3.8 V to 24 V supply voltage
✦ Operates with static magnetic fields and
dynamic magnetic fields up to 10 kHz
✦ Overvoltage protection at all pins
✦ Reverse-voltage protection at VDD pin
✦ Magnetic characteristics are robust
against mechanical stress effects
✦ Short-circuit protected open-drain
output by thermal shut down
✦ Constant switching points over a wide
supply voltage and temperature range
✦ The decrease of magnetic flux density
caused by rising temperature in the
sensor system is compensated by a built-in
negative temperature coefficient of the
magnetic characteristics
✦ High temperature stability for automotive
or industrial applications
✦ High ESD rating
Major Applications
The HAL 2xy is the optimal system solution
for applications, such as:
✦ Endposition detection
✦ RPM measurement of motors in various
applications, such as power window
✦ Brushless DC motors
✦ RPM measurements in flow meters
✦ Replacement of micro switches
