Hall Effect Switch from Diodes Incorporated Aids Portable Product Miniaturization

May 22, 2012

Plano, Texas – May 22nd, 2012 – Diodes Incorporated has introduced the world’s smallest programmable omnipolar Hall effect switch. The AH1892 is well-suited for proximity and position detection in space-constrained portable and battery-powered products, including tablets, smart phones and camcorders. Provided in the miniature 4-pin 0.7mm x 0.7mm x 0.5mm U-WLB0707-4 package, the micropower AH1892 is seventeen times smaller than the common 3-pin TSOT packaged alternatives.

The package’s space-saving advantage is further enhanced by the switch’s integrated pull-up resistors, which simplify the external circuit layout and save more PCB space. A simple band … Read More → "Hall Effect Switch from Diodes Incorporated Aids Portable Product Miniaturization"
