Diodes' AH1389 is a miniature, micropower, unipolar Hall-effect switch IC with dual outputs. It is ideally suited for portable and battery-powered consumer equipment, home appliances, and industrial applications.
Its 1.6 V to 3.6 V supply voltage supports battery-powered equipment and low-voltage microcontrollers and with the sleep function the average supply current is only 4 µA. A north pole of sufficient strength turns OUTPUT1 on (pulled low), and a south pole of sufficient strength turns OUTPUT2 on (pulled low). Output1 remains on until the magnetic flux density (B) rises above the north field release point BRPN (-20 G typical) while Output2 remains low until B falls below the south field release point BRPS (+20 G typical). The AH1389 has an 8 kV ESD rating on the supply and output pins. The AH1389 is packaged in the tiny-footprint, low-profile X2-DFN1410-4.
