3.5 to 24 V operation
Description
The A1180, A1181, A1182, and A1183 devices are sensitive,
two-wire, unipolar, Hall effect switches. The operate point, B
OP
,
can be field-programmed, after final packaging of the sensor
and placement into the application. This advanced feature
allows the optimization of the sensor switching performance,
by effectively accounting for variations caused by mounting
tolerances for the device and the target magnet.
This family of devices are produced on the Allegro
MicroSystems advanced BiCMOS wafer fabrication process,
which implements a patented, high-frequency, chopper-
stabilization technique that achieves magnetic stability and
eliminates the offsets that are inherent in single-element devices
exposed to harsh application environments. Commonly found
in a number of automotive applications, the A1180-83 family of
devices are utilized to sense: seat track position, seat belt buckle
presence, hood/trunk latching, and shift selector position.
Two-wire unipolar switches are particularly advantageous
in price-sensitive applications, because they require one
less wire than the more traditional open-collector output
Packages: 3 pin SOT23W (suffix LH), and
3 pin SIP (suffix UA)
