HAL 15xy
Hall-Effect Switches with Open-Drain Output (3-wire) in SOT23 Package
Release Note: Revision bars indicate significant changes to the previous edition.
1. Introduction
The HAL 15xy Hall-switch family members produced in CMOS technology as 3-wire
device with open-drain output transistor include a temperature-compensated Hall plate
with active offset compensation, a comparator, and an output stage.
The comparator compares the actual magnetic flux through the Hall plate (Hall voltage)
with the fixed reference values (switching points). Accordingly, the output transistor is
switched on or off.
The active offset compensation leads to constant magnetic characteristics over supply
voltage and temperature range. In addition, the magnetic parameters are robust against
mechanical stress effects.
The sensors are designed for industrial and automotive applications and operate with
supply voltages from 2.7 V to 24 V in the junction temperature range from 40 C up to
170 C.
HAL 15xy is available in a JEDEC TO236-compliant SMD-package 3-lead SOT23.
