Unique Features
Based on mixed signal CMOS technology, the SS579 is a Hall-effect device with high magnetic sensitivity. This
multi-purpose latch meets most of the application requirements.
The chopper-stabilized amplifier uses switched capacitor technique to suppress the offset generally observed with
Hall sensors and amplifiers. The CMOS technology makes this advanced technique possible and contributes to
smaller chip size and lower current consumption than bipolar technology. The small chip size is also an important
factor to minimize the effect of physical stress. This combination results in more stable magnetic characteristics
and enables faster and more precise design.
The wide operating voltage from 3.5V to 24V, low current consumption and large choice of operating temperature
range according to “E”, “K” and “L” specification make this device suitable for automotive, industrial and consumer applications.

The SOT-23 device is reversed from the UA package. The SOT-23 output transistor will be turned on(drops low) in the presence of a
sufficiently strong North pole magnetic field applied to the marked face and turned off(hoists high) in the presence of a sufficiently
strong South pole magnetic field.
Detailed General Description
The SS579 exhibits latch magnetic switching characteristics. Therefore, it requires both south and north poles to
operate properly.
The OUT pin of these devices switches low (turns on) when a magnetic field perpendicular to the Hall sensor exceeds the operate point threshold, BOP. After turn-on, the output voltage is VDSon. Note that the device latches, that
is, a south pole of sufficient strength towards the branded surface of the device turns the device on. The device remains on if the south pole is removed (B→0). This latching property defines the device as a magnetic memory.
When the magnetic field is reduced below the release point, BRP, the OUT pin turns off (goes high). The difference
in the magnetic operating and release points is the hysteresis, BHYST, of the device. This built-in hysteresis prevents
output oscillation near the switching point, and allows clean switching of the output even in the presence of external mechanical vibration and electrical noise.
The device behaves as a latch with symmetric operating and release switching points (BOP=|BRP|). This means
magnetic fields with equivalent strength and opposite direction drive the output high and low.
Powering-on the device in the hysteresis region (less than BOP and higher than BRP) allows an indeterminate output

state. The correct state is attained after the first excursion beyond BOP or BRP.
The SOT-23 device is reversed from the UA package. The SOT-23 output transistor will be latched on in the presence of a sufficiently strong North pole magnetic field applied to the marked face.
Application Information
It is strongly recommended that an external bypass capacitor be connected (in close proximity to the Hall sensor)
between the supply (VDD Pin) and ground (GND Pin) of the device to reduce both external noise and noise generated by the chopper stabilization technique. As is shown in the following two figures, a 0.1μF capacitor is typical.

For reverse voltage protection, it is recommended to connect a resistor or a diode in series with the VDD pin. When
using a resistor, three points are important:
- the resistor has to limit the reverse current to 50mA maximum (VCC / R1 ≤ 50mA)
- the resulting device supply voltage VDD has to be higher than VDD min (VDD = VCC – R1*IDD)
- the resistor has to withstand the power dissipated in reverse voltage condition (PD = VCC2/R1)
When using a diode, a reverse current cannot flow and the voltage drop is almost constant (≈0.7V).
Therefore, a 100Ω/0.25W resistor for 5V application and a diode for higher supply voltage are recommended. Both
solutions provide the required reverse voltage protection.
When a weak power supply is used or when the device is intended to be used in noisy environment, it is recommended the following figure is used.
The low-pass filter formed by R1 and C1 and the Zener diode Z1 bypass the disturbances or voltage spikes occurring on the device supply voltage VDD. The diode D1 provides additional reverse voltage protection.
