A1245 Chopper-Stabilized, Two Wire Hall-Effect Latch
A1245 latch, produced through the advanced BiCMOS wafer fabrication process, implements high frequency, 4-phase, chopper-stabilization techniques to achieve magnetic stability over the full operating temperature range of -40 to 150ºC. A Hall-effect latch will be in the high output current state in the presence of a magnetic south polarity field of sufficient magnitude and will remain in this state until a sufficient north polarity field is present.
Designed for speed and position sensing of ring magnets or other moving/rotating assemblies, they can be used in applications that are safety-critical and/or have long wiring harnesses. Examples include automotive applications such as internal mode switch (IMS) transmissions and transmission range switch (TRS)/manual level position sensor (MLPS) shift selectors; electronic parking brake motors; electronic power steering (EPS); and sunroof, tailgate, and other motors; industrial/consumer applications include white goods, industrial/factory automation, and automatic doors.
