OCH168B
Micro Power Omnipolar Hall-effect Sensor Switch
◼ General Description
◼ Features
The OCH168B Omnipolar Hall effect sensor IC is
⚫ Micro power consumption ideal for battery-powered
fabricated from mixed signal CMOS technology. It is
applications
comprised of two Hall plates and a OD output driver,
⚫ Omnipolar (operation with magnetic field of either
mainly designed for battery-operation, hand-held
north or south pole), easy to use as output switches with
equipment (such as Cellular and Cordless Phone,
both North and South pole
PDA). The total power consumption in normal
⚫ Input Voltage Range: 2.4V to 5.5V
operation is typically 24μW with a 3V power source. Either north or south poles of sufficient strength will turn the output on.
