DESCRIPTION The open-collector sinking output voltage is easily interfaced The SS41F/SS41G Series are small, versatile digital Hall-effect with a wide variety of electronic circuits. devices that are operated by the magnetic field from a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, and are designed to The SS41F is factory tested at 25 C [77 F] and the SS41G is respond to alternating North and South poles. factory tested at both 25 C [77 F] and 125 C [257 F]. A built-in regulator provides enhanced stability of operation Both products are designed for high volume applications. over 4.5 Vdc to 24 Vdc supply voltage range, and internal circuitry is designed to prevent sensor damage in case the supply voltage polarity is accidentally reversed. FEATURES AND BENEFITS Small, leaded, flat TO-92-style package allows for a POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS Transportation compact PCB layout Speed and RPM sensing Wide operating voltage range of 4.5 Vdc to 24 Vdc makes Commutation and control of electric motors used in these sensors useable in a variety of applications transportation Current consumption of only 5 mA max. at 4.5 Vdc for energy efficiency Industrial and Commercial Bipolar magnetics for ring magnet applications with Flow-rate sensing for appliances alternating North and South poles Tachometer, counter pickup Robust design: will operate up to 150 C [302 F] Brushless dc motor commutation RoHS-compliant materials meet Directive 2002/95/EC Motor and fan control for commercial, consumer or industrial equipment Medical Any medical equipment or instruments using electric motors Table 1.
