AH3776
HIGH-VOLTAGE, HIGH-SENSITIVITY HALL EFFECT LATCH
Description
The AH3776 is a high-voltage, medium-sensitivity Hall Effect latch IC designed for commutation of brushless DC motors, flow meters, linear encoders and position sensors in industrial and consumer home appliances and personal care applications. To support a wide range of demanding applications, the design is optimized to operate over the supply range of 3.0V to 28V. With chopper stabilized architecture and an internal bandgap regulator to provide temperature compensated supply for internal circuits, the AH3776 provides a reliable solution over the whole operating range. For robustness and protection, the device has a reverse blocking diode with a Zener clamp on the supply.
