Detailed General Description
The S732 exhibits latch magnetic switching characteristics. Therefore, it requires both south and north poles to operate properly.
The OUT pin of these devices switches low (turns on) when a magnetic field perpendicular to the Hall sensor exceeds the operate point
threshold, BOP. After turn-on, the output voltage is VDSon. Note that the device latches, that is, a south pole of sufficient strength
towards the branded surface of the device turns the device on. The device remains on if the south pole is removed (B→0). This
latching property defines the device as a magnetic memory.
When the magnetic field is reduced below the release point, B , the OUT pin turns off (goes high). The difference in the magnetic
RP
operate and release points is the hysteresis, BHYS , of the device. This built-in hysteresis prevents output oscillation near the switching
point, and allows clean switching of the output even in the presence of external mechanical vibration and electrical noise.
The device behaves as a latch with symmetric operating and release switching points (B =|B |). This means magnetic fields with
OP RP
equivalent strength and opposite direction drive the output high and low.
Powering-on the device in the hysteresis region (less than BOP and higher than BRP) allows an indeterminate output state. The correct
state is attained after the first excursion beyond BOP or BRP
.
The SOT-23 device is reversed from the UA package. The SOT-23 output transistor will be latched on in the presence of a sufficiently
strong North pole magnetic field applied to the marked face.
