3 Description

The TMAG5231 is a 2nd-generation, low-power Halleffect switch sensor, specifically designed to optimize 

the total system cost for compact, battery-operated 

consumer and industrial applications.

When the applied magnetic flux density exceeds the 

operating point (BOP) threshold, the device outputs a 

low voltage. The output stays low until the flux density 

decreases to less than the release point (BRP), and

then the device outputs a high voltage. Omnipolar 

magnetic response allows the output to be sensitive 

to both north and south magnetic fields.

The TMAG5231 is able to operate at very low current 

consumption. To achieve 2 μA of current consumption 

the device is internally power cycled at a 20-Hz rate.

The TMAG5231 is available in the industry-standard 

package and pinout SOT-23 as well as X2SON.

The device operates at a VCC range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V 

as well as an extended temperature range of –40°C to 

125°C
