3503
The UGN3503LT, UGN3503U, and UGN3503UA Hall-effect
sensors accurately track extremely small changes in magnetic flux
density—changes generally too small to operate Hall-effect switches.
RATIOMETRIC, LINEAR
HALL-EFFECT SENSORS
As motion detectors, gear tooth sensors, and proximity detectors,
they are magnetically driven mirrors of mechanical events. As sensitive
monitors of electromagnets, they can effectively measure a system's
performance with negligible system loading while providing isolation
from contaminated and electrically noisy environments.
Each Hall-effect integrated circuit includes a Hall sensing element,
linear amplifier, and emitter-follower output stage. Problems associated
with handling tiny analog signals are minimized by having the Hall cell
and amplifier on a single chip.

Three package styles provide a magnetically optimized package for
most applications. Package suffix ‘LT’ is a miniature SOT-89/TO-
243AA transistor package for surface-mount applications; suffix ‘U’ is a
miniature three-lead plastic SIP, while ‘UA’ is a three-lead ultra-mini-
SIP. All devices are rated for continuous operation over the temperature
range of -20°C to +85°C.

All output-voltage measurements are made with a voltmeter having an input impedance of at least 10 kΩ.
Magnetic flux density is measured at most sensitive area of device located 0.0165" (0.42 mm) below the branded face of the ‘U’
package; 0.0195" (0.50 mm) below the branded face of the ‘UA’ package; and 0.0305" (0.775 mm) below the branded face of the
‘LT’ package.

HALL-EFFECT SENSORS
OPERATION
NOTCH SENSOR
The output null voltage (B = 0 G) is nominally one-half the supply
voltage. A south magnetic pole, presented to the branded face of the Hall-
effect sensor will drive the output higher than the null voltage level. A north
magnetic pole will drive the output below the null level.
In operation, instantaneous and proportional output-voltage levels are
dependent on magnetic flux density at the most sensitive area of the device.
Greatest sensitivity is obtained with a supply voltage of 6 V, but at the cost of
increased supply current and a slight loss of output symmetry. The sensor's
output is usually capacitively coupled to an amplifier that boosts the output
above the millivolt level.
In two applications shown, a permanent bias magnet is attached with
epoxy glue to the back of the epoxy package. The presence of ferrous material
at the face of the package acts as a flux concentrator.
Dwg. A-12,574
GEAR TOOTH SENSOR
The south pole of a magnet is attached to the back of the package if the
Hall-effect IC is to sense the presence of ferrous material. The north pole of a
magnet is attached to the back surface if the integrated circuit is to sense the
absence of ferrous matrial.
Calibrated linear Hall devices, which can be used to determine the actual
flux density presented to the sensor in a particular application, are available.
