CT511 Series
Unipolar Switch for Consumer &
Industrial Applica ons
Product Descrip on
The CT511 Series is an integrated magne c sensor especially designed for con-
sumer switching applica ons based on Crocus Technology’s patented Magne c
Logic Unit (MLU) technology with integrated CMOS process. The CT511 Series
operates with low power consump on in low magne c fields and large air gaps
with industry leading high frequency performance. The open drain output can
interface with a system voltage up to 6V for added design flexibility.
The CT511 Series provides high sensi vity in a small footprint SOT-23 package
and is cost compe ve for high volume manufacturing. Custom solu ons are
available.
