3421 AND 3422
PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
(subject to change without notice)
September 6, 2000
HALL-EFFECT, DIRECTION-DETECTION SENSORS
The A3421xKA and A3422xKA Hall-effect, direction-detection sensors are a new generation of special-function integrated sensors that are capable of sensing the direction of rotation of a ring magnet. These transducers provide separate digital outputs that provide information on magnet rotation speed, direction, and magnet pole count. These devices eliminate the major manufacturing hurdles encountered in fine-pitch direction-detection applications, namely maintaining accurate mechanical location between the two active Hall elements.
