AH1912
ULTRA-LOW POWER DIGITAL OMNIPLOAR
HALL-EFFECT SWITCH
Description
Pin Assignments
The AH1912 is an ultra-low power digital Omni-polar Hall Effect
switch IC from Diodes broad Hall Effect switches family. Thanks to the
hibernating clocking system, the average supply current is only 1.6μA
at 3V, which makes the AH1912 perfectly fit battery-powered
consumer products, Gas or water meter, smoke detectors and IoT
devices. The wider range of supply voltage (1.6V to 5.5V) extends
battery operating time and supports low voltage system
microcontrollers, which provides great flexibility for system design.
The advanced chopper stabilized design provides superior stability on
switch operating point over temperature and supply voltage. The high
ESD level up to 6kV helps to improve the system robustness.

The output is activated with either a north or south pole of sufficient
magnetic field strength. When the magnetic flux density (B)
perpendicular to the package is larger than operate point (BOP), the
output will be turned on (pulled low) and held until B is lower than
release point (BRP).
