2 General Description
n
The Melexis US3881 is a Hall-effect latch
designed in mixed signal CMO technology.
OS
The device integrates a volt
tage regulator, Hall
sensor with dynamic offset cancellation system,
c
Schmitt trigger and an open-dr
rain output driver, all
in a single package.
The low operating voltage and extended choice of
d
temperature range make it suitable for use in
t s
automotive, industrial and con
nsumer low voltage
applications.
The devices are delivered in a Thin Small Outline
Transistor (TSOT) for surface mount process and
in a Plastic Single In Line (TO-92 flat) for through-
hole mount.
Both 3-lead packages are RoHS compliant.

9 Detailed General Desc
scription
Based on mixed signal CMOS tech
hnology, Melexis US3881 is a Hall-effect device with high magnetic
h
sensitivity. This multi-purpose latch suits most of the application requirements.
ch
The chopper-stabilized amplifier us switched capacitor techniques to suppress the offset generally
ses
t
observed with Hall sensors and am
mplifiers. The CMOS technology makes this advanced te
echnique possible
and contributes to smaller chip size and lower current consumption than bipolar technology The small chip
e
y.
size is also an important factor to m
minimize the effect of physical stress.
This combination results in more st
table magnetic characteristics and enables faster and more precise design.
m
The operating voltage from 2.2V to 18V, low current consumption and large choice of opera
o
ating temperature
range according to “L”, “K” and “E” specification make this device suitable for automotive, industrial and
in
consumer low voltage applications.
.
The output signal is open-drain type Such output allows simple connectivity with TTL or CM
e.
MOS logic by using
a pull-up resistor tied between a pu
pull-up voltage and the device output.
10 Unique Features
The US3881 exhibits latch magneti switching characteristics. Therefore, it requires both south and north
ic
s
poles to operate properly.
SE package - Latch charact
cteristic
UA package - Latch chara
acteristic
The device behaves as a latch with symmetric operating and release switching points (B
OP
=|B
RP
|). This
h
means magnetic fields with equival
lent strength and opposite direction drive the output high and low.
h
Removing the magnetic field (B→0) keeps the output in its previous state. This latching prop
)
operty defines the
device as a magnetic memory.
A magnetic hysteresis B
HYST
keeps B
OP
and B
RP
separated by a minimal value. This hystere
esis prevents
output oscillation near the switching point.
