Silicon Labs' proven CMOS design techniques, the Si720x family
incorporates digital signal processing to provide precise compen-

• Omnipolar or unipolar operation
• Integrated digital signal processing for
temperature and offset drift
compensation
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.
• Low 400 nA Typical Current Consumption
at 5 samples per second
• Selectable Sensitivity, Hysteresis, Output
Polarity and Sample Rate
• Sensitivity Drift < ±3% over Temperature
The Si720x devices are offered in 3-pin SOT23, 5-pin SOT23, and TO-92 packages,
with power, ground, a single output pin that goes high or low as the magnetic field in-
creases, and with the 5-pin parts a disable(sleep) pin, and a tamper output pin. With the
three-pin package, tamper indication is by the pin going back to its zero field level at
high magnetic field.
• Wide Power Supply Voltage
