Two-Wire Hall Effect Sensor Family
in CMOS technology
Release Notes: Revision bars indicate significant
changes to the previous edition.
1. Introduction
This sensor family consists of different two-wire Hall
switches produced in CMOS technology. All sensors
change the current consumption depending on the external magnetic field and require only two wires between
sensor and evaluation circuit. The sensors of this family
differ in the magnetic switching behavior and switching
points.
The sensors include a temperature-compensated Hall
plate with active offset compensation, a comparator, and
a current source. The comparator compares the actual
magnetic flux through the Hall plate (Hall voltage) with
the fixed reference values (switching points). Accordingly, the current source is switched on (high current
consumption) or off (low current consumption).
The active offset compensation leads to constant magnetic characteristics in the full supply voltage and tem-
perature range. In addition, the magnetic parameters
are robust against mechanical stress effects.
1.2. Family Overview
The types differ according to the mode of switching and
the magnetic switching points.

Unipolar Switching Sensors:
The sensor turns to high current consumption with the
magnetic south pole on the branded side of the package
and turns to low consumption if the magnetic field is
removed. The sensor does not respond to the magnetic
north pole on the branded side.

The sensors are designed for industrial and automotive
applications and operate with supply voltages from 4 V
to 24 V in the junction temperature range from –40 °C up
to 170 °C. All sensors are available in the SMD-package
SOT-89B and in the leaded version TO-92UA.
1.1. Features:
– current output for two-wire applications
– junction temperature range from –40 °C up to 170 °C.
– operates from 4 V to 24 V supply voltage
– operates with static magnetic fields and dynamic mag-
netic fields up to 10 kHz
– switching offset compensation at typically 145 kHz
– overvoltage and reverse-voltage protection
– magnetic characteristics are robust against mechani-
cal stress effects
– constant magnetic switching points over a wide supply
voltage range
– the decrease of magnetic flux density caused by rising
temperature in the sensor system is compensated by
a built-in negative temperature coefficient of the mag-
netic characteristics
The sensor turns to low current consumption with the
magnetic south pole on the branded side of the package
and turns to high consumption if the magnetic field is
removed. The sensor does not respond to the magnetic
north pole on the branded side.
– ideal sensor for applications in extreme automotive
and industrial environments
– EMC corresponding to DIN 40839

2. Functional Description
The HAL55x, HAL56x two-wire sensors are monolithic
integrated circuits which switch in response to magnetic
fields. If a magnetic field with flux lines perpendicular to
the sensitive area is applied to the sensor, the biased
Hall plate forces a Hall voltage proportional to this field.
The Hall voltage is compared with the actual threshold
level in the comparator. The temperature-dependent
bias increases the supply voltage of the Hall plates and
adjusts the switching points to the decreasing induction
of magnets at higher temperatures.
If the magnetic field exceeds the threshold levels, the
current source switches to the corresponding state. In
the low current consumption state, the current source is
switched off and the current consumption is caused only
by the current through the Hall sensor. In the high current
consumption state, the current source is switched on
and the current consumption is caused by the current
through the Hall sensor and the current source. The
built-in hysteresis eliminates oscillation and provides
switching behavior of the output signal without bouncing.
Magnetic offset caused by mechanical stress is compensated for by using the “switching offset compensation technique”. An internal oscillator provides a twophase clock. In each phase, the current is forced through
the Hall plate in a different direction, and the Hall voltage
is measured. At the end of the two phases, the Hall voltages are averaged and thereby the offset voltages are
eliminated. The average value is compared with the
fixed switching points. Subsequently, the current consumption switches to the corresponding state. The
amount of time elapsed from crossing the magnetic
switching level to switching of the current level can vary
between zero and 1/f

4.1. HAL556
The HAL556 is a very sensitive unipolar switching sensor (see Fig. 4–1).
The sensor turns to high current consumption with the
magnetic south pole on the branded side of the package
and turns to low current consumption if the magnetic

north pole on the branded side.
For correct functioning in the application, the sensor requires only the magnetic south pole on the branded side
of the package.
In the HAL55x, HAL56x two-wire sensor family, the
HAL566 is a sensor with the same magnetic characteristics but with an inverted output characteristic.
Magnetic Features:

Applications
The HAL556 is designed for applications with one magnetic polarity and weak magnetic amplitudes at the sensor position such as:
– applications with large airgap or weak magnets,
– solid state switches,
– contactless solutions to replace micro switches,
– position and end point detection, and
– rotating speed measurement.

HAL566
4.3. HAL566
The HAL566 is a very sensitive unipolar switching
sensor with an inverted output (see Fig. 4–9).
The sensor turns to low current consumption with the
magnetic south pole on the branded side of the package
and turns to high current consumption if the magnetic
field is removed. It does not respond to the magnetic
north pole on the branded side.
For correct functioning in the application, the sensor requires only the magnetic south pole on the branded side
of the package.
In the HAL55x, HAL56x two-wire sensor family, the
HAL556 is a sensor with the same magnetic characteristics but with a normal output characteristic.
Magnetic Features:
– switching type: unipolar inverted
– high sensitivity
– typical B
– typical B
: 4 mT at room temperature
ON
: 5.9 mT at room temperature
OFF
– operates with static magnetic fields and dynamic mag-
netic fields up to 10 kHz
Applications
The HAL566 is designed for applications with one magnetic polarity and weak magnetic amplitudes at the sensor position where an inverted output signal is required
such as:
– applications with large airgap or weak magnets,
– solid state switches,
– contactless solutions to replace micro switches,
– position and end point detection, and
– rotating speed measurement.

5. Application Notes
5.1. Application Circuit
Figure 5–1 shows a simple application with a two-wire
sensor. The current consumption can be detected by
measuring the voltage over R
of the sensor, the voltage between pin 1 and 2 (V
. For correct functioning
L

must be a minimum of 4 V. With the maximum current
consumption of 17 mA, the maximum R

5.2. Extended Operating Conditions
All sensors fulfill the electrical and magnetic characteristics when operated within the Recommended Operating
Conditions (see page 7).
Typically, the sensors operate with supply voltages
)
above 3 V. However, below 4 V, the current consumption
and the magnetic characteristics may be outside the
specification.
Note: The functionality of the sensor below 4 V is not
tested on a regular base. For special test conditions,
please contact Micronas.
5.3. Start-up Behavior
Due to the active offset compensation, the sensors have
an initialization time (enable time t

) after applying

en(O)
the Electrical Characteristics (see page 8). During the
initialization time, the current consumption is not defined
and can toggle between low and high.
For applications with disturbances on the supply line or
radiated disturbances, a series resistor R
10 Ω
to 30 Ω)and a capacitor both placed close to the
(ranging from

5.5. EMC and ESD
For applications with disturbances on the supply line or
radiated disturbances, a series resistor and a capacitor
are recommended (see Fig. 5–2). The series resistor
and the capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the HAL sensor.
Applications with this arrangement passed the EMC
tests according to the product standards DIN 40839.
Note: The international standard ISO 7637 is similar to
the product standard DIN 40839.

reports with the EMC and ESD results.
