SS361CT and SS461C Digital Position Sensor ICs

Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions SS361CT/SS461C high sensitivity bipolar latching digital sensor ICs are small, versatile digital Hall effect devices that are operated by the magnetic field from a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. They are designed to respond to alternating north and south poles. These bipolar sensor ICs have enhanced sensitivity, which often allows for the use of less expensive magnets. These ICs offer reverse polarity protection and deliver a stable output over a -40°C to 125°C [-40°F to 257°F] temperature range. Operation from any dc supply voltage from 4 V_dc to 24 V_dc is acceptable.

The SS361CT/SS461C devices have enhanced sensitivity. They will typically operate from only 50 Gauss at 25°C [77°F] with 80 Gauss maximum at -40°C to 85°C [-40°F to 185°F] and 95 Gauss over the full temperature.

These Hall-effect devices are available in two package styles: SS361CT: subminiature SOT-23 SMD and SS461C: leaded flat TO-92 style.
