Sensing and Control
SS552MT Series
SS552MT is a digital position sensor in an SOT-89 style surface-mount
package with omnipolar magnetic action. The sensor has magnetoresistive
material integrated on silicon and encapsulated in a plastic package. The
integrated circuit provides a digital output in response to very low magnetic
fields. Though this signal is identical to our digital Hall effect sensors, it can
be achieved by magneto-resistive sensors at much greater sensor-tomagnet distances.
Surface-mount packages are mounted directly on the electrical traces on the
PC board and attached by an automatic solder reflow operation which
requires no holes, so it reduces the cost of the PC board. These packages
are supplied on tape and reel and can be automatically placed on PC boards
by use of pick-and-place equipment.
SS552MT Series is operated by magnetic fields (North or South) parallel to
the sensor package.
NOTE: Due to the inherent high sensitivity of these sensors, stray magnetic
fields which are parallel to the IC may affect operation.

*Absolute maximum ratings are the extreme limits
the device will withstand without damage to the
device. However, the electrical and mechanical
characteristics are not guaranteed as the maximum
limits (above recommended operating conditions) are
approached, nor will the device necessarily operate
at absolute maximum ratings.
