Linear Hall-Effect Sensor Family in SOT89B Pack-
age
Release Note: Revision bars indicate significant
changes to the previous edition.
1. Introduction
The HAL182x is a new family of linear Hall-effect sen-
sors. It is a universal magnetic field sensor with a ratio-
metric, linear analog output. This sensor family can be
used for magnetic field measurements, current mea-
surements and detection of mechanical movements.
Very accurate angle measurements or distance mea-
surements can also be done. The sensors are very
robust and can be used in harsh environments.
The output voltage is proportional to the magnetic flux
density through the hall plate. The choppered offset
compensation leads to stable magnetic characteristics
over supply voltage and temperature.
The different family members vary by sensitivity
(25 mV/mT, 31.25 mV/mT and 50 mV/mT). The quies-
cent output voltage (offset) is for all family members
50% of supply voltage.
The sensor is designed for industrial applications and
operates in the junction temperature range from –40 °C
up to 170 °C.
1.1. Major Applications
Due to the sensor’s robust characteristics, the
HAL182x is the optimal system solution for applica-
tions such as:
– linear position measurements,
– angle sensors,
– distance measurements,
– magnetic field and current measurement.
1.2. Features
