LINEAR HALL EFFECT IC
AH49F
General Description
The AH49F is a small, versatile linear Hall-effect
device that is operated by the magnetic field from a
permanent magnet or an electromagnet. The output
voltage is set by the supply voltage and varies in
proportion to the strength of the magnetic field.
The integrated circuitry features low noise output,
which makes it unnecessary to use external filtering
components. It also includes precision resistors to
provide increased temperature stability and accuracy.
The operating temperature range of these linear Hall
sensors is -40°C to 105°C, appropriate for
commercial, consumer, and industrial environments.
The AH49F is available in standard TO-92S and
SOT-23-3 packages.

Transferring Characteristics (V
CC
=5V)
When there is no outside magnetic field (B=0Gauss),
the quiescent output voltage is one-half the supply
voltage in general.
For TO-92S package, if a south magnetic pole
approaches the front face (the side with marking ID)
of the Hall effect sensor, the circuit will drive the
output voltage higher. In contrary, a north magnetic
pole will drive the output voltage lower. The
variations of voltage level up or down are
symmetrical. Because the SOT-23-3 is reversed
packaging with TO-92S, so the magnetic
performance is also reversed. Therefore, if the
reversed magnetic pole approaches the front face, the
output is the same as TO-92S package. Greatest
magnetic sensitivity is obtained with a supply voltage
of 8V, but at the cost of increased supply current and
a slight loss of output symmetry. So, it is not
recommended to work in such condition unless the
South Pole
output voltage magnitude is a main issue. The output
signal can be capacitively coupled to a next-level
amplifier for further amplifying if the changing
frequency of the magnetic field is high.
