Description
The A3245 integrated circuit is an omnipolar, ultrasensitive
Hall-effect switch with a digital output. This device has an
integrated regulator permitting operation to 24 V, making
it the first omnipolar switch available for operation to 24 V.
This device is especially suited for operation over extended
temperature ranges, up to +150°C. Superior high-temperature
performance is made possible through an Allegro
®
patented
dynamic offset cancellation, which reduces the residual offset
voltage normally caused by device overmolding, temperature
excursions, and thermal stress.
The A3245 Hall-effect switch includes the following on a
single silicon chip: voltage regulator, Hall-voltage generator,
small-signal amplifier, chopper stabilization, Schmitt trigger,
and a short circuit protected open-drain output. Advanced
BiCMOS wafer fabrication processing is used to take advantage
of low-voltage requirements, component matching, very low
input-offset errors, and small component geometries.
The omnipolar operation of the A3245 allows activation with
either a north
or
a south polarity field of sufficient strength.
In the absence of a magnetic field, the output is off. This
Packages: 3 pin SOT23W (suffix LH)

A3245
Chopper-Stabilized Omnipolar Hall Effect Switches
Description (continued)
patented magnetic-polarity-independence feature makes this device
an excellent replacement for reed switches, with improved ease of
manufacturing, because the A3245 does not require manufacturers
to orient their magnets. These devices allow simple on/off switching
in industrial, consumer, and automotive applications.
The A3245 is rated for operation between the ambient temperatures
–40°C and 85°C for the E temperature range, and –40°C to 150°C
for the L temperature range. The small geometries of the BiCMOS
process allow these devices to be provided in ultrasmall packages.
Package LH is an SOT23W, a miniature low-profile surface-
mount package. It is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte tin plated
leadframe.

Magnetic
fl
ux density, B, is indicated as a negative value for north-polarity magnetic
fi
elds, and as a positive value for south-polarity magnetic
fi
elds.
This so-called algebraic convention supports arithmetic comparison of north and south polarity values, where the relative strength of the
fi
eld is indicated
by the absolute value of B, and the sign indicates the polarity of the
fi
eld (for example, a –100 G
fi
eld and a 100 G
fi
eld have equivalent strength, but
opposite polarity).
