A1391, A1392, A1393, and A1395
Micro Power 3V Linear Hall Effect Sensor ICs
withTri-State Output and User-Selectable Sleep Mode
Features and Benefits
Description
▪ High-impedance output during sleep mode
▪ Compatible with 2.5 to 3.5 V power supplies
▪ 10 mW power consumption in the active mode
▪ Miniature MLP/DFN package
TheA139xfamilyoflinearHalleffectsensorintegratedcircuits
(ICs) provide a voltage output that is directly proportional to
an applied magnetic field. Before amplification, the sensitivity
of typical Hall effect ICs (measured in mV/G) is directly
proportional to the current flowing through the Hall effect
transducer element inside the ICs. In many applications, it
is difficult to achieve sufficient sensitivity levels with a Hall
effect sensor IC without consuming more than 3 mAof current.
The A139x minimize current consumption to less than 25 μA
throughtheadditionofauser-selectablesleepmode.Thismakes
these devices perfect for battery-operated applications such as:
cellular phones, digital cameras, and portable tools. End users
can control the current consumption of theA139x by applying a
▪ Ratiometric output scales with the ratiometric supply
reference voltage (VREF pin)
▪ Temperature-stable quiescent output voltage and
sensitivity
▪ Wide ambient temperature range: –20°C to 85°C
▪ ESD protection greater than 3 kV
▪ Solid-state reliability
▪ Preset sensitivity and offset at final test

logic level signal to the SLEEP pin. The outputs of the devices
are not valid (high-impedance mode) during sleep mode. The
high-impedanceoutputfeatureallowstheconnectionofmultiple
A139x Hall effect devices to a single A-to-D converter input.
