SS411A Honeywell Hall Effect Sensor

Description

SS411A Honeywell Hall Effect Sensor

The SS400 Series and SS500 Series are small and versatile digital Hall-effect devices that are operated by the magnetic field from a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, and
are designed to respond to alternating North and South poles, or to a South pole only. They are available in bipolar, latching or unipolar magnetics. On-board regulation provides stable operation over a 3.8 Vdc to 30 Vdc supply voltage range. These sensors are capable of continuous 20 mA sinking output and may be cycled as high as 50 mA max. The 3.8 V capability allows for use in many potential low voltage applications. The digital, open collector sinking-type output is easily interfaced with a wide variety of electronic circuits. To provide reliable products and consistent quality, the SS400 Series products are tested at both 25°C [75°F] and 125°C [257°F]. All catalog listings are qualified for operation up to 150°C [302°F]
