ZMY20 MAGNETIC FIELD SENSOR DESCRIPTION The ZMY20 is an extremely sensitive magnetic sensor employing the magneto-resistive effect of thin film permalloy. It allows the measurement of magnetic fields or the detection of magnetic parts. The highly sensitive and small size magnetoresistive sensors consist of a chip covered with thin film permalloy stripes. These stripes form a Wheatstone bridge, whose output voltage is proportional to the magnetic field component Hy. A perpendicular field Hx is necessary to stabilize sensor operation. This can be done by using a small permanent magnet. Hy Hx -VB +VB -VO +VO FEATURES • Output voltage proportional to magnetic field Hy SOT223S • Adjustment of sensitivity and suppression of hysteresis by the auxiliary magnetic field Hx • Magnetic fields vertical to the chip level are not effective APPLICATIONS • Linear position sensors for process control, door interlocks, proximity detectors, machine tool sensing • Scalar measurement for compassing • Automotive – door switches, engine position & speed sensing PINOUT • Metering of fluids by sensing rotation of impeller -VB • Traffic counting & vehicle-type sensing ORDERING INFORMATION DEVICE REEL SIZE TAPE WIDTH QUANTITY PER REEL ZMY20TA 7” 12mm 1000 units ZMY20TC 13” 12mm 4000 units +VO -VO +VB VB = SUPPLY VOLTAGE VO = OUTPUT VOLTAGE Top View • Measurement of current in a conductor without connection DEVICE MARKING • ZMY20 ISSUE 3 - JUNE 2007 1 SEMICONDUCTORS ZMY20 ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS.
