The HAL 28xy family is a new generation of programmable Hall-effect sensors.

It consists of members with different digital interfaces, like LIN, PWM, and SENT (SAE J2716). Due to its internal structure, it is possible to easily generate new family members. The built-in RISC processor allows a fast implementation of new output formats or customer-specific signal processing. All members within this family can be programmed without any additional programming pin. Programming is done via LIN frames or BiPhase-M telegrams depending on the family member.
