ADVANCE INFORMATION
5. Application Notes
5.1. Application Circuit
Figure 5–1 shows a simple application with a two-wire
sensor. The current consumption can be detected by
measuring the voltage over RL. For correct functioning
of the sensor, the voltage between pin 1 and 2 (VDD)
must be a minimum of 3.75 V. With the maximum current
consumption of 17 mA, the maximum RL can be calcu-
lated as:
RLmax

VSUPmin * 3.75

For applications with disturbances on the supply line or
radiated disturbances, a series resistor RV (ranging from
10 Ω to 30 Ω) and a capacitor both placed close to the
sensor are recommended (see figure 5–2). In this case,
the maximum RL can be calculated as:
RLmax +
VSUPmin * 3.75

5.2. Extended Operating Conditions
All sensors fulfill the electrical and magnetic characteris-
tics when operated within the Recommended Operating
Conditions (see page 7).
Typically, the sensors operate with supply voltages
above 3 V. However, below 3.75 V, the current consump-
tion and the magnetic characteristics may be outside the
specification.
Note: The functionality of the sensor below 3.75 V is not
tested on a regular base. For special test conditions,
please contact Micronas.
5.3. Start-up Behavior
Due to the active offset compensation, the sensors have
an initialization time (enable time ten(O)) after applying
the supply voltage. The parameter ten(O) is specified in
the Electrical Characteristics (see page 8). During the
initialization time, the current consumption is not defined
and can toggle between low and high.
HAL 57x:
After ten(O), the current consumption will be high if the
applied magnetic field B is above BON. The current con-
sumption will be low if B is below BOFF.
HAL 58x
In case of sensors with an inverted switching behavior,
the current consumption will be low if B > BOFF and high
if B < BON.
Note: For magnetic fields between BOFF and BON, the
current consumption of the HAL sensor will be either low
or high after applying VDD. In order to achieve a defined
current consumption, the applied magnetic field must be
above BON, respectively, below BOFF.
