1 Functional Diagram
The included voltage regulator operates from 2.7 to 24V,
hence covering a wide range of applications. With the
built-in reverse voltage protection, a serial resistor or
diode on the supply line is not required so that even
remote sensors can be specified for low voltage operation
down to 2.7V while being reverse voltage tolerant.

Protection
In the event of a drop below the minimum supply voltage
during operation, the under-voltage lock-out protection
will automatically freeze the device, preventing the
electrical perturbation to affect the magnetic
measurement circuitry. The output state is therefore only
updated based on a proper and accurate magnetic
measurement result.

The open drain output is fully protected against short-

a built-in current limit. An additional
2 General Description
automatic output shut-off is activated in case of a
prolonged short-circuit condition. A self-check is then
periodically performed to switch back to normal
operation if the short-circuit condition is released.
The on-chip thermal protection also switches off the
output if the junction temperature increases above an
abnormally high threshold. It will automatically recover
once the temperature decreases below a safe value.
The Melexis MLX92211 is the second generation Hall-
effect latch designed in mixed signal CMOS technology.
The device integrates a voltage regulator, Hall sensor with
advanced offset cancellation system and an open-drain
output driver, all in a single package. Based on a brand
new platform, the magnetic core is using an improved
offset cancellation system allowing faster and more
accurate processing while being temperature insensitive
and stress independent. In addition is implemented a
negative temperature coefficient to compensate the
natural behaviour of magnets becoming weaker with rise
in temperature.
With latching magnetic characteristics, the output is
turned low or high respectively with a sufficiently strong
South or North pole facing the package top side. When
removing the magnetic field, the device keeps its previous
state.
