DESCRIPTION

The IC contains a Hall sensor and the appropriate measurement system. It detects three levels of upright magnetic field: positive, near zero and negative. These information are provided at two binary coded outputs for any logic or uC. The sampling rate is about 10kHz (typ.) allowing fast movement detection.

FEATURES

? Supply voltage range 2.0V to 6.0V

? Hall Sensor with two magnetic switching thresholds

? Provides three field strength ranges: negative, near zero and positive

? Two binary coded outputs for the recognised field strength

? Extremely low integral current consumption of < 26μA in standard mode.

? High measuring rate of typically 10k samples per second in standard mode.

? Slow measuring mode and/ or increased sensitivity can be statically adjusted.

? – 40°C to + 125°C operating temperature

? SO8 package

APPLICATION

? Motor speed and postition control
