MICROPOWER, GENERAL-SENSITIVE HALL EFFECT
Description
The AH1888 micro power Omni-polar Hall Effect switch IC
designed for portable and battery powered equipment such
as cellular phones, PDA’ s and portable PC’ s. Based on
two sensitive Hall Effect plates and chopper stabilized
architecture the AH1888 provides a reliable solution over the
whole operating range. To support portable and battery
powered equipment the design has been optimized to
operate over the supply range of 1.65V to 3.3V and
consumes only 12.6µW with a supply of 1.8V.
The outputs are switched with either a north or south pole of
sufficient strength. When the magnetic flux density (B) is
larger than operate point (Bop) the output is switched on. The
output is turned off when B becomes lower than the release
point (Brp). The output will remain off when there is no
magnetic field. The AH1888-ZG has two outputs, output one
pulls low when switched on and output two is inverted. The
AH1888-FJG provides output one and AH1888-FJRG
provides output two.
