HAL 5xy
Unipolar Switching Sensors:
1.4. Operating Junction Temperature Range
The output turns low with the magnetic south pole on
the branded side of the package and turns high if the
magnetic field is removed. The sensor does not
respond to the magnetic north pole on the branded
side.
The Hall sensors from Micronas are specified to the
chip temperature (junction temperature TJ).
A: TJ = −40 °C to +170 °C
K: TJ = −40 °C to +140 °C
Unipolar Switching Sensors with Inverted Output:
Note: Due to the high power dissipation at high current
consumption, there is a difference between the
ambient temperature (TA) and junction tempera-
ture. Please refer to Section 5.1. on page 46 for
details.
The output turns high with the magnetic south pole on
the branded side of the package and turns low if the
magnetic field is removed. The sensor does not
respond to the magnetic north pole on the branded
side.
1.5. Hall Sensor Package Codes
Unipolar Switching Sensors with Inverted Output
Sensitive to North Pole:
HALXXXPA-T
The output turns high with the magnetic north pole on
the branded side of the package and turns low if the
magnetic field is removed. The sensor does not
respond to the magnetic south pole on the branded
side.
Temperature Range: A or K
Package: SF for SOT89B-1
UA for TO92UA
Type: 5xy
Example: HAL505UA-K
1.3. Marking Code
→ Type: 505
→ Package: TO92UA
→ Temperature Range: TJ = −40 °C to +140 °C
All Hall sensors have a marking on the package sur-
face (branded side). This marking includes the name
of the sensor and the temperature range.
Hall sensors are available in a wide variety of packag-
ing versions and quantities. For more detailed informa-
tion, please refer to the brochure: “Ordering Codes for
Hall Sensors”.
