Chopper-stabilized Hall-effect sensor offers superior sensitivity

This post is sponsored by Texas Instruments. Offering superior sensitivity stability over temperature and integrated protection features, Texas Instruments has introduced the DRV5013-Q1, a chopper-stabilized Hall-effect magnetic sensor. The magnetic field is indicated via a digital bipolar latch output. The IC has an open drain output stage with 30mA current sink capability. A wide operating voltage range from 2.7V to 38V with reverse polarity protection up to -22V makes the device suitable for a wide range of automotive applications. Internal protection functions are provided for reverse supply conditions, load dump, and output short circuit or over current.
