Overview

The SS49E is a high-performance, linear Hall effect sensor that provides a ratiometric analog voltage output proportional to magnetic flux density. It features a thin-film resistor design to maintain temperature stability and can detect both positive and negative Gauss across a typical range of +/-1000 Gauss.

Why Choose This Part

The sensor operates across a wide supply voltage range of 2.7V to 6.5V and offers low-noise output for high-precision measurements. Its linear sourcing output and thermal balancing ensure reliable performance even in environments with varying temperatures up to 85 degrees Celsius.

Applications

Current Sensing
Monitoring current in power distribution units by measuring the magnetic field generated by a conductor.
Position Detection
Detecting the linear or angular position of mechanical components in robotics and industrial machinery.
Magnetic Pole Detection
Determining the proximity and polarity of permanent magnets in brushless DC motor commutation.
Fluid Level Sensing
Using a floating magnet to provide a continuous analog level measurement in tanks.

Getting Started

Interface the SS49E by connecting the supply pins to a stable 3.0V or 5V source and routing the analog output pin to an ADC channel on your microcontroller. Calibrate the zero-Gauss point at half the supply voltage (Vcc/2) and use the sensitivity of 1.4 mV/Gauss to calculate magnetic field strength in your firmware.
