HALL-EFFECT SWITCH
FOR 2-WIRE APPLICATIONS
X
This Hall-effect switch is a monolithic integrated circuit designed to
operate continuously over extended temperatures to +85°C. The unipolar switching characteristic makes this device ideal for use with a simple
bar or rod magnet. The A3161ELT and A3161EUA are identical except
for package.

Two package styles provide a magnetically optimized package for
most applications. Suffix ‘LT’ is a miniature SOT-89/TO-243AA
transistor package for surface-mount applications; suffix ‘UA’ is a threelead ultra-mini SIP for through-hole mounting.

Each device includes a voltage regulator for operation with supply
voltages of 3.5 to 25 volts, reverse battery protection diode, quadratic
Hall-voltage generator, temperature compensation circuitry, small-signal
amplifier, Schmitt trigger, and a constant-current open-collector output.
Noise radiation is limited by control of the output current slew rate.

ELEMENT LOCATIONS
OPERATION
The output of these devices (pin 3) switches OFF when the magnetic
field at the Hall element exceeds the operate point threshold (B
OP). When the
magnetic field is reduced to below the release point threshold (BRP), the
device output switches ON. The difference in the magnetic operate and
release points is called the hysteresis (Bhys) of the device. This built-in
hysteresis allows clean switching of the output even in the presence of
external mechanical vibration and electrical noise.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
These devices are normally operated in a 2-wire mode, where the supply
terminal and the output terminal are tied together. An external comparator
detects the change in total supply current by the addition (output off, B > BOP)
or subtraction (output on, B < BRP) of IOUT.
Hall effect applications information is available in the “Hall-Effect IC
Applications Guide”, which can be found in the latest issue of the Allegro
MicroSystems Electronic Data Book, AMS-702 or Application Note 27701,
