Honeywell Technologies Through Hole Hall Effect Sensor 2.7 V 6.5V, IC, TO-92, 3-Pin

Honeywell SS49E Series Hall Effect Sensor, 2.7V Minimum Supply Voltage, 6.5V Maximum Supply Voltage - SS49E

This Hall effect sensor is a three-pin linear magnetic IC supplied in a TO-92 through-hole package, designed to convert magnetic field variations into an electrical signal for electronic and automation systems. It operates across a modest supply range and is intended for incorporation into circuit designs where compact, interface-ready sensing is required.

Features and Benefits:

• Operates from 2.7V to 6.5V enabling flexible power arrangements Low supply current of 6 mA minimises system power draw Linear output response time of 3 s supports steady-state measurements Sensitive to magnetic field changes with 25% sensitivity for responsive detection Wide ambient range from -40 °C to 100 °C suits varied environmental conditions

Applications

• Suitable for position sensing in linear actuators and slides Ideal for current sensing in power-control circuits Used with motion-detection systems in factory automation Can be used for proximity detection in mechanical assemblies

What mounting method is required for integration into a prototype board?

It uses a through-hole mounting style compatible with standard drilled boards and hand-solder assembly, simplifying mechanical securing and connection.

How Compact is the component for dense board layouts?

The package footprint is small with a body width of around 3mm and length close to 4.06mm, allowing placement in tight spaces between other components.

What Interface type does it present to system electronics?

The device is an IC-type Interface requiring three electrical connections for supply, ground and output, which suits straightforward analogue or digital conditioning stages.

What technology underpins the sensing mechanism?

It employs Hall-effect technology to produce an electrical signal proportional to the applied magnetic field, enabling linear magnetic field measurements.
