AS1918
Unipolar Detection High
Performance Low Power
Hall-Effect Sensor IC
General Description
Using low power CMOS process, the AS1918 is
designed for low power, high performance unipolar
detection hall-effect application, such as cover switch,
contactless switch, solid state switch and lid close
sensor etc battery operation. The hall IC integrated an
on-chip hall voltage generator for magnetic sensing, a
comparator that amplifiers the hall voltage, a Chopper
amplifier, a Schmitt trigger to provide switching
hysteresis for noise rejection, and a complementary
output.
The total power consumption of AS1918 is
typically less than 2.0uA at 3.3V power supply. AS1918
is designed to respond to alternating South pole. When
the magnetic flux density (B) is larger than operate
point (B
OPS
), the output will be turned on (low), the
output is held until the magnetic flux density (B) is
lower than release point (B
RPS
), then turn off (high).
The device is available in SIP-3L, SSOT23-3L,
SOT23-3L, DFN1216-4L, DFN1010-4L and SOT553
Packages and is rated over the -40°C to 85°C. The
package is RoHS compliant.
