AH180N

MICROPOWER OMNIPOLAR HALL-EFFECT SWITCH

Description

The AH180N is a high sensitivity, micro power Omnipolar Hall Effect

switch IC designed for portable and battery powered equipment such

as cellular phones, PDA’ s and portable PC’ s. Based on two sensitive

Hall Effect plates and a chopper stabilized architecture the AH180N

provides a reliable solution over the whole operating range. To

support portable and battery powered equipment the design has been

optimized to operate over the supply range of 2.5V to 5.5V and

consumes only 24µA with a supply of 3V.

The single open drain output can switched on with either a North or

South pole of sufficient strength. When the magnetic flux density (B)

is larger than operate point (Bop) the output is switched on (pulled

low). The output is turned off when B becomes lower than the release

point (Brp). The output will remain off when there is no magnetic field.
