Small magnetic sensor IC with a super-low operating current consumption of a mere 160nA and high magnetic sensitivity

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ABLIC Inc. (President: Nobumasa Ishiai, head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo, hereinafter �ABLIC�) today launched the �S-5701 B Series� surface mount TMR (Tunnel Magneto Resistance) sensor IC, a magnetic sensor IC with super-low current consumption, high magnetic sensitivity, long life and an operating current consumption of a mere 160nA.

The �S-5701 B Series� is a TMR sensor IC. However, unlike other MR sensor ICs such as Anisotropic Magneto Resistive (AMR) or Giant Magneto Resistive (GMR) sensor ICs, it features high sensitivity and super-low current consumption (160nA) making it an innovative product that solves the limitations of a conventional reed switch.

Reed Switch Limitations and the TMR Sensor IC Advantages that Solve Them

ABLIC has now added a new product, the �S-5701 B Series,� a TMR sensor IC in a �Small, Smart and Simple� product lineup that detects horizontal magnetic fields allowing us to further broaden our customer base by proposing it to customers who are seeking a replacement for the reed switch.

Major Features of the S-5701 B Series

1. The IC�s average current consumption is 160nA when using a power supply voltage of 3.3V. About 1/6th of the current consumption of a regular AMR IC
2. Operating voltage range: 1.7 to 5.5V, operation temperature range -40 to 125�C and satisfies a wide operating environment
3. Employs a super-thin TSOT-23-3S package
4. High magnetic sensitivity B_OP = 1.0mT products available

Applications

• A reed switch replacement

Examples of products using this IC

• Window open/close sensors, electronic keys, smoke detectors
• Gas meters, water meters, smart meters
