Summary
Programmable Linear Hall Effect Sensors with Analog Output Available in a Miniature Thin Profile Surface Mount Package December 10, 2012
Description
New applications for linear output Hall effect sensors, such as displacement, angular position, and current measurement, require high accuracy in conjunction with small package size. The Allegro® A138x family of programmable linear Halleffect sensors was designed specifically to achieve both goals. These temperature-stable devices are available in a miniature surface mount package (SOT23-W) and an ultramini through hole single-in-line package. The accuracy of these devices is enhanced via programmability on the output pin for end-of-line optimization without the added complexity and cost of a fully programmable device.
