The UGQ5140K unipolar Hall effect switch is a monolithic
integrated circuit designed for magnetic actuation of low-power
incandescent lamps or inductive loads such as relays or solenoids.
Included on chip is a Darlington power output that is capable of continuously sinking in excess of 300 mA. Internal protection circuitry
limits surge (lamp turn-ON) or fault currents to approximately 900 mA.
A sensitive magnetic threshold allows the device to be used in conjunction with inexpensive magnets or in applications that require
relatively large operating distances.

Each sensor/driver includes a magnetic sensing Hall voltage
generator, operational amplifier, Schmitt trigger, voltage regulator, and
an open-collector, high-gain Darlington power output stage. The
regulator allows use of the device with supply voltages of 4.5 V to
28 V. On-chip compensation circuitry stabilizes switch-point performance over temperature. The magnetic operation of this device is
similar to that of the A3141E— Hall-effect switch.
The sensitive magnetic switch point coupled with the power output,
current limiting, and thermal limiting circuitry allow the UGQ5140K to
magnetically actuate various loads without requiring any external
components.
The UGQ5140K is rated for operation over an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. It is supplied in a four-pin mini-SIP
plastic package, 0.200" (5.08 mm) wide, 0.130" (3.30 mm) high, and
0.060" (1.54 mm) thick.

TYPICAL TRANSFER CHARACTERISTICS
at TA = +25°C
The UGQ5140K merges state-of-the-art
Hall effect sensing and power driving technologies to allow precision non-contact
actuation of incandescent lamps or inductive
loads. It is rated for operation over an
extended temperature range as typically
required in automotive applications.

MAGNETIC FLUX DENSITY IN GAUSS
Dwg. GH-007
As shown in the Transfer Characteristics
graph, the output of the device (pin 2)
switches low when the magnetic field at the
Hall sensor exceeds the operate point
threshold (BOP). At this point, the output
voltage is VOUT(SAT). When the magnetic field
is reduced to below the release point threshold (BRP), the device output goes high. The
difference in the magnetic operate and
release points is called the hysteresis (BH) of
the part. This built-in hysteresis allows clean
switching of the output even in the presence
of external mechanical vibration and electrical noise.
CURRENT AND THERMAL
LIMITING
Output short circuits may be caused by
faulty connectors, crimped wiring harnesses,
or blown loads. In such cases, current and
thermal limit circuitry will protect the output
transistor against destruction.
Current through the output transistor is
sensed with a low-value on-chip aluminum
resistor. The voltage drop across this
resistor is fed back to control the base drive
of the output stage. This feedback prevents
the output transistor from exceeding its
maximum current density rating by limiting
the output current to approximately 900 mA.
It may also cause the output voltage to
increase (VOUT = VBB - [I LIMIT x RL]). In this
mode, the device will dissipate an increased
amount of power (PD = VOUT x ILIMIT) and the
output transistor will be thermally stressed.

This stress, unless protected against (as in the
UGQ5140K), will cause the device junction temperature to rise until it fails catastrophically.

PEAK CURRENT LIMIT
OUTPUT CURRENT
When thermal stresses cause the junction temperature to reach approximately +165°C, a linear
thermal limiting circuit is activated. This circuit linearly
reduces the base drive of the output transistor to
maintain a constant junction temperature of 165°C. In
this mode, the output current will be a function of the
heat dissipating characteristics of the package and its
environment. Linear thermal limiting eliminates the
low-frequency thermal oscillation problems experienced by thermal shutdown (ON-OFF) schemes.
When the fault condition that caused the output
overload is corrected, the device returns to normal
operating mode.

The output characteristics are shown in Figures 1
and 2. Note the three distinct operating regions: peak
limit, delta limit, and thermal limit. In practice the
output voltage and current may exhibit some oscillations during peak current limiting due to output load
characteristics. These oscillations are of very-short
duration (typically 50 ms) and may be damped with an
external capacitor between pins 2 and 4.

Thermal stress protection is provided in two
manners; delta temperature protection, and junction
temperature protection. Under worst-case conditions
(see Figures 1 and 2), if the output is shorted to
supply, the output transistor will heat up much faster
than the rest of the integrated circuit. This condition
could cause localized failure in the output transistor.
To prevent damage, a delta temperature limiting
scheme is used. If a large thermal gradient is sensed
across the device, the output transistor base drive is
reduced to lower the output current. This reduces the
power (heat) generated by the output transistor.

TYPICAL LAMP DRIVER APPLICATION
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
INCANDESCENT LAMP DRIVER
High incandescent lamp turn-ON currents (commonly called in-rush currents) can contribute to poor lamp
reliability and destroy semiconductor lamp drivers. Warming resistors protect both driver and lamp but use significant power when the lamp is OFF while current-limiting
resistors waste power when the lamp is ON. Lamps with
steady-state current ratings to 300 mA can be driven by
the UGQ5140K (Figure 3) without the need for warming or
current limiting resistors. In applications using several
sensor/drivers to control multiple lamps, the internal clamp
diodes may be connected together to an appropriate
current-limiting resistor and simple “lamp test” switch.

LAMP CURRENT vs TIME
NORMAL LAMP IN-RUSH CURRENT
As shown in Figure 4, when an incandescent lamp is
initially turned ON, the cold filament is at minimum resistance and will normally allow a 10x to12x peak in-rush
current. As the lamp warms up, the filament resistance
increases to its rated value and the lamp current is
reduced to its steady-state rating. When switching a lamp
with the UGQ5140K, the internal current-limiting circuitry
limits the peak current to approximately 900 mA. The
device will stay in the current limit and delta temperature
limit modes until the lamp resistance increases to its rated
steady-state value (Figure 4). A side-effect of this currentlimiting feature is that lamp turn-on times will increase.
Typical lamp turn-on times are shown in Figure 5.

Connecting the internal clamp diode (pin 3) to the
positive supply allows relays or other inductive loads to be
driven directly, as shown in Figure 6. The internal diode
prevents damage to the output transistor by clamping the
high-voltage spikes which occur when turning OFF an
inductive load. An optional external Zener diode can be
used to increase the flyback voltage, providing a much
faster inductive load turn-OFF current decay, resulting in
faster dropout (reduced relay contact arcing), and improved performance. The maximum Zener voltage, plus
the load supply voltage, plus the clamp diode forward
voltage should not exceed 35 volts.
