Magnetic field sensor using AD22151

Magnetic field sensor project using AD22151 IC from Analog Devices, The AD22151 is a linear magnetic field transducer. The sensor output is a voltage proportional to a magnetic field applied perpendicularly to the package top surface. The sensor combines integrated bulk Hall cell technology and instrument technology to minimize temperature-related drifts associated with silicon Hall cell characteristics.

Features

  • Supply 5V DC @ 25mA
  • Power Led On Board
  • Header connector for supply and output
  • Normal Output 1.800V
  • South side Magnet Output 4.800V
  • North side Magnet Output 0.042V

Applications

  • Throttle Position Sensing
  • Pedal Position Sensing
  • Suspension Position Sensing
  • Valve Position Sensing
  • Absolute Position Sensing
  • Proximity Sensing

Sensitivity Adjustment and Zero Gauss

The sensitivity of the sensor can be adjusted by changing some of the resistors on the board. For more information on how to calculate the resistors refer to the datasheet page 5, paragraph GAIN and OFFSET. The operation of AD22151 can be either bipolar or the Zero Gauss point can be set to a different voltage level. The gain can be set by altering resistors R3 and R5. For example, if we want to set for bipolar operation we set R2 and R1 is not placed. For unipolar operation, R1 is set and R2 is not placed. If we want to set output gain to 1.4mV/G  with bipolar operation then we choose R5=R4=85k, R2= 18k, and R1=R3 =omit. This setting will give us a Zero Gauss output of 2.5V, so 2.5V/1.4mV gives us a ± 1785 Gauss output.

What is the thickness of the PCB?

Peng Peng

Thank you. Then what is the total thickness? I mean the top to bottom height. I am considering of placing this entire sensor in a 3.9 mm thickness space. Is it possible?
I need 5 pieces currently.

Peng Peng

How can I buy it?

Peng Peng

Thank you for replying. I would like to purchase 5 pieces of sensors. May I have your email for contact?

Giha

Is this sensor accurate to measure in -10uT-10uT range?
