Si720x Switch/Latch Hall Effect Magnetic
Position Sensor Data Sheet
The Si7201/2/3/4/5/6 family of Hall effect magnetic sensors and latches from Silicon
Labs combines a chopper-stabilized Hall element with a low-noise analog amplifier, 13-
FEATURES
bit analog-to-digital converter, and a flexible comparator circuit. Leveraging Silicon Labs'
proven CMOS design techniques, the Si720x family incorporates digital signal process-
ing to provide precise compensation for temperature and offset drift.
• High-Sensitivity Hall Effect Sensor
• Maximum B operating point/minimum
OP
field strength of <1.1 mT
Compared with existing Hall effect sensors, the Si720x family offers industry-leading
sensitivity, which enables use with larger air gaps and smaller magnets. For battery-
powered applications, the Si720x family offers very low power consumption to improve
operating life. For automotive applications, the Si720x family in SOT23 packages is
AEC-Q100 qualified.
• Omnipolar or unipolar operation
• Integrated digital signal processing for
temperature and offset drift
compensation
• Low 400 nA Typical Current Consumption
at 5 samples per second
The Si720x devices are offered in 3-pin SOT23 and TO-92 packages, with power,
ground, and a single output pin that goes high or low as the magnetic field increases.
With the three-pin package, tamper indication is by the pin going back to its zero field
level at high magnetic field.
• Selectable / Programmable Sensitivity,
Hysteresis, Output Polarity and Sample
Rate
• Sensitivity Drift < ±3% over Temperature
In the 5-pin SOT23 and 8-pin DFN(coming soon) packages, pins are available for both
sleep mode activation and separate tamper indication.
• Wide Power Supply Voltage
• 1.71 to 5.5 V
• 3.3 to 26.5 V
Applications:
• AEC-Q100 Qualified for Automotive
Applications
