* Absolute maximum ratings are the extreme limits that the device will withstand without damage to the device.
However, the electrical and magnetic characteristics are not guaranteed as the maximum limits (above recommended
operating conditions) are approached, nor will the device necessarily operate at absolute maximum rating.
** Vs is the unregulated supply voltage.

* Unipolar: sensor has plus maximum operate point, plus minimum release point. One magnetic pole (south) is
required to operate and release a unipolar sensor.
Bipolar sensor has plus (south pole) operate point and minus (north pole) minimum release point. Operate and
release points can be both positive or both negative. Latching cannot be guaranteed. Ring magnets are usually
used with bipolar sensors.
Bipolar latching sensor is guaranteed to switch on with plus (south pole) gauss only, and switch off with negative
(north pole) gauss only.

INTERFACING SENSING AND CONTROL HALL EFFECT SENSORS
The schematics shown are typical of the outputs
with which Sensing and Control Hall effect sensors
can be interfaced. Values shown are representative
only.
CURRENT SINKING OUTPUTS
(Current flows through load into sensor.) Output
terminal is open collector. In the unoperated
condition (IL = 0), the output voltage is normally
high.
For application help: call 1-800-537-6945
CURRENT SOURCING OUTPUTS
(Current flows from sensor through load.) Output
terminal is open emitter. In the unoperated condition
(IL = 0), the output voltage is normally low.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If sensor does not operate, follow these steps:
1. Assure wiring is correct. Load must be connected.
2. Measure supply voltage across Red (+) and Black
(-) leads to verify presence of proper voltage.
3. Connect positive voltmeter lead to Green (output)
lead, and negative voltmeter lead to Black
(ground). With magnet removed (or north pole
present), reading should be:
