HIGH SENSITIVITY MICROPOWER
OMNIPLOAR HALL-EFFECT SWITCH
Description
The AH1902 is a high sensitivity micropower Omnipolar Hall effect
switch IC with internal pull up and pull down capability. Designed for
portable and battery powered consumer equipment such as cellular
phones and portable PCs to office equipment, home appliances and
industrial applications, the average supply current is only 4.3uA at
1.8V. To support potable equipment the AH1902 can operate over the
supply range of 1.6V to 3.6V and uses a hibernating clocking system
to minimize the power consumption. To minimize PCB space the
AH1902 is available in small low profile X1-DFN1216-4 and X2-
DFN2015-6 packages.
The output is activated with either a north or south pole of sufficient
magnetic field strength. When the magnetic flux density (B)
perpendicular to the package is larger than operate point (Bop), the
output will be turned on (pulled low) and held until B is lower than
release point (Brp).
