Introduction
The HAL114 is a Hall switch produced in CMOS technol-
ogy. The sensor includes a temperature-compensated
Hall plate, a Schmitt trigger, and an open-drain output
transistor (see Fig. 2).
The HAL114 has a unipolar behavior: The output turns
low with a magnetic south pole on the branded side of
the package (see figures 3 and 4). The output turns high
if the magnetic field is removed. The output signal re-
mains high if the magnetic north pole approaches the
branded side of the package.
The sensor is designed for industrial and automotive ap-
plications and operates with supply voltages from 4.5 V
to 24 V in the ambient temperature range from –40°C up
to 150 °C.
The HAL114 is available in a SMD-package (SOT -89A)
and in a leaded version (TO-92UA).
Features:
operates from 4.5 V to 24 V supply voltage
overvoltage protection
reverse-voltage protection at VDD-pin
short-circuit protected open-drain output by thermal
shutdown
operates with magnetic fields from DC to 20 kHz
stable magnetic switching points over a wide supply
voltage range
the decrease of magnetic flux density caused by rising
temperature in the sensor system is compensated by
a built-in negative temperature coefficient of the mag-
netic switching points
ideal sensor for contactless switches and speed mea-
surement in hostile automotive and industrial environ-
ments

Functional Description
The HAL114 is a CMOS integrated circuit with a switch-
ing output in response to magnetic fields. It processes
the “Hall Voltage” internally: The Hall Voltage is propor-
tional to the magnetic flux component Bz orthogonal to
an integrated Hall Plate, in case an electric current is im-
posed to the plate. The HAL1 14 compares the Hall V olt-
age with a predefined threshold and generates the out-
put signal dependent of the direction of the magnetic
field. A special circuit compensates for the temperature
dependent effects of the IC, as well as the external mag-
net. A built-in hysteresis eliminates possible oscillations
of the output signal adjacent to its switching point so that
“output bouncing” is avoided. The output is short-circuit
protected by limiting high currents and by sensing ex-
cess temperature. Shunt protection devices clamp
voltage peaks at the Output-Pin and VDD-Pin together
with external series resistors. Reverse current is limited
at the VDD-Pin by an internal series resistor up to –15 V.
No external reverse protection diode is needed at the
VDD-Pin for values ranging from 0 V to –15 V.

Application Note
For electromagnetic immunity , it is recommended to ap-
ply a 330 pF minimum capacitor between VDD (pin 1)
and Ground (pin 2).
For applications requiring robustness to conducted dis-
turbances (transients), a 220 series resistor to pin 1
and a 4.7 nF capacitor between VDD (pin1) and Ground
(pin 2) is recommended. The series resistor and the ca-
pacitor should be placed as close as possible to the IC.

Ambient Temperature
Due to the internal power dissipation, the temperature
on the silicon chip (junction temperature TJ) is higher
than the temperature outside the package (ambient tem-
perature TA).
TJ = TA + T
At static conditions, the following equations are valid:
for SOT-89A: T = IDD * VDD * RthJSB
for TO-92UA: T = IDD * VDD * RthJA
For typical values, use the typical parameters. For worst
case calculation, use the max. parameters for IDD and
Rth, and the max. value for VDD from the application.
