SS496A1

SS496A1 is a SS490 series linear hall-effect sensor IC. It is a small, versatile linear hall effect device which are operated by the magnetic field from a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. The ratiometric output voltage is set by the supply voltage and varies in proportion to the strength of the magnetic field. The integrated circuitry provides increased temperature stability and sensitivity. Laser-trimmed thin film resistors provide high accuracy (null to ±3%, sensitivity up to ±3%) and temperature compensation. It responds to either positive or negative gauss, monitoring either or both magnetic poles. The quad Hall sensing element minimizes the effects of mechanical or thermal stress on the output. Applications include current sensing, motor control, position sensing, magnetic code reading, rotary encoder, ferrous metal detector, vibration sensing, liquid level sensing, weight sensing.

• Power consumption of 7mA at 5VDC for energy efficiency
• Single current sinking or current sourcing output
• Linear output for circuit design flexibility
• ±840Gauss B limits for linear operation
• Rail-to-rail operation provides more useable signal for higher accuracy
• Responds to either positive or negative gauss
• Quad Hall sensing element for stable output
• 4.5 to 10.5VDC supply voltage
• Operating temperature range from -40 to 150°C
