HAL 546
4.3. HAL546
The HAL546 is a quite sensitive unipolar sensor (see
Fig. 4–7).
The output turns low with the magnetic south pole on
the branded side of the package and turns high if the
magnetic field is removed. The sensor does not
respond to the magnetic north pole on the branded
side.
Magnetic Features:
– switching type: unipolar
– high sensitivity
– typical BON: 5.5 mT at room temperature
– typical BOFF: 3.5 mT at room temperature
– operates with static magnetic fields and dynamic
magnetic fields up to 10 kHz
– typical temperature coefficient of magnetic switching
points is −1000 ppm/K.
Applications
The HAL546 is the optimal sensor for applications with
one magnetic polarity such as:
– solid state switches,
– contactless solution to replace micro-switches, and
– rotating speed measurement.

The hysteresis is the difference between the switching points BHYS = BON − BOFF
The magnetic offset is the mean value of the switching points BOFFSET = (BON + BOFF) / 2
