Allegro MicroSystems A1391/A1392 Micro Power 3V Linear Hall Effect Sensor Datasheet

A1391-DS is the datasheet of A1391 and A1392, it is a micro power 3V linear hall effect sensor with tri-state output and user-selectable sleep mode. This integrated circuit (IC) provides a voltage output that is directly proportional to an applied magnetic field. In many applications, it is difficult to achieve sufficient sensitivity levels with a Hall effect sensor IC without consuming more than 3 mA of current. The A1391 and A1392 minimize current consumption to less than 25 μA through the addition of a user-selectable sleep mode.

About this manual

The Allegro MicroSystems A1391 and A1392 are Micro Power 3V Linear Hall Effect Sensors with Tri-State Output and User-Selectable Sleep Mode. These integrated circuits provide a voltage output directly proportional to an applied magnetic field while minimizing current consumption to less than 25 µA in sleep mode, making them ideal for battery-operated applications such as cellular phones and digital cameras.

The devices are available in a miniature 6-pin MLP/DFN package and are compatible with 2.5 to 3.5 V power supplies. Key features include a ratiometric output that scales with the VREF pin, temperature-stable quiescent output voltage, and preset sensitivity and offset at final test. The sensors operate over a wide ambient temperature range of -20°C to 85°C.

Frequently asked questions

What is the operating supply voltage range for the A1391 and A1392?

The devices are compatible with 2.5 to 3.5 V power supplies.

How does the user control current consumption?

End users can control current consumption by applying a logic level signal to the SLEEP pin to enter sleep mode.

What is the output state during sleep mode?

The outputs are not valid and enter high-impedance mode during sleep mode.

Is the output voltage ratiometric with the supply voltage?

No, the output voltage is not ratiometric with respect to the SUPPLY pin, but it scales with the ratiometric supply reference voltage (VREF pin).
