Unlimited sinking and sourcing current • 4.5 V to 6.0 V operation • Responds equally to positive and negative magnetic field • Excellent temperature stability to operate in harsh environments • Robust package capable of withstanding harsh environments Description The ratiometric linear Hall effect sensor each contain a monolithic integrated circuit on a single chip. The circuit incorporates a quadratic Hall sensing element which minimizes the effects of mechanical and thermal stress on the Hall element and temperature compensating circuitry to compensate for the inherent Hall element sensitivity change over temperature current. These ratiometric linear Hall effect sensors provide an output voltage that varies in proportion to the applied magnetic field. The voltage output will increase in response to a south pole (positive) magnetic field applied perpendicular to the package symbolization face, and decrease in response to a north pole (negative) magnetic field. These 3150U & 3151U ratiometric linear Hall effect sensors can be used as contactless sensors for rotary and linear position sensing and for current sensing. The devices in this series are similar in performance except for their allowable quiescent voltage output change over the specified operating temperature range. Optek Technology, Inc.

The change in quiescent voltage output over temperature gives the device’s equivalent accuracy and is specified in Gauss by the calculation. ∆VOQ(T) = VOQ(TA) - VOQ(25o C) Sens (25o C) Sensitivity: A magnetic south pole at and perpendicular to the device’s symbolized package face will increase the voltage output above the quiescent value. Conversely a magnetic north pole will decrease the voltage output below the quiescent value. This change in voltage output with applied magnetic field is sensitivity and is specified in mV/G by the calculation. Sens = VO(500G) - VO(-500G) 1000 The change in sensitivity over temperature is specified in percent by the calculation Sens (TA) - Sens (25o C) X 100% Sens(25o C) ∆Sens(∆T) = Ratiometry: The quiescent voltage output and sensitivity of these ratiometric linear Hall effect devices are proportional to the supply voltage. The change in quiescent voltage output with supply voltage is specified in percent by the calculation. ∆VOQ(∆V) = VOQ(VCC) - VOQ(5 V) VCC/5 V X 100% The change in sensitivity with supply voltage is also specified in percent by the calculation ∆Sens (∆V) = Sens(VCC)/Sens (5 V) X 100% VCC/5 V Linearity and Symmetry: The ability of the voltage output to vary in constant proportion to the applied magnetic field is linearity and is specified in percent by the calculation + Lin = VO(500G) - VOQ 2(VO[250G] - VOQ) X 100% - Lin = VO(-500G) - VOQ 2(VO[-250G] - VOQ) X 100% The output symmetry is also specified in percent by the calculation Sym = Optek Technology, Inc. 1215 W.
