SS500 Series Temperature Compensated
Hall Effect Sensors
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY
DO NOT USE these products as safety or
emergency stop devices or in any other application
where failure of the product could result in personal
injury.
Failure to comply with these instructions could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE DAMAGE
This component is sensitive to electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Take normal ESD precautions in handling this
product to prevent ESD-induced damage and/or
degradation.
Failure to comply with these instructions will
result in product damage.
CAUTION
WAVE SOLDER DAMAGE
DO NOT wave solder this product. Wave soldering
may negatively affect the sensor performance and
reliability. Subjecting the sensor to wave soldering
will void Honeywell’s warranty.
Failure to comply with these instructions will
result in product damage.

* Absolute maximum ratings are the extreme limits that the
device will withstand without damage to the device.
However, the electrical and mechanical characteristics are
not guaranteed as the maximum limits (above
recommended operating conditions) are approached, nor
will the device necessarily operate at absolute maximum
ratings.
SOLDERING INSTRUCTIONS
Honeywell recommends an infrared reflow process
with peak temperatures not to exceed 245°C (473°F)
for 10 seconds maximum.

NOTICE
Bipolar Hall effect sensors may have an initial output in either the On or Off state if powered up with an
applied magnetic field in the differential zone (applied magnetic field > Brp and < Bop). Honeywell
recommends allowing 10 µsec for output voltage to stabilize after supply voltage has reached 5 volts.
