Product details
Overview
APS11760LLHALX-0PL from Allegro MicroSystems is an AEC-Q100 qualified, ASIL A-capable micropower vertical Hall-effect switch optimized for automotive position sensing. It features omnipolar magnetic sensitivity (±40 G operate/release), 6 µA average supply current at 12 V, open-drain output, and operation from –40°C to 150°C ambient temperature. It is used in gear shift selectors, door/lid open/close detection, and clutch/brake position sensing where ultra-low power and high-temperature reliability are critical.
For engineers reviewing the APS11760LLHALX-0PL datasheet, APS11760LLHALX-0PL pinout, APS11760LLHALX-0PL application, or APS11760LLHALX-0PL equivalent, key selection criteria include its X-axis (parallel-to-package-face) vertical Hall sensing orientation, 3-pin SOT23W package, 6 µA micropower sleep mode, ±40 G omnipolar threshold, and compliance with ISO 26262 SEooC requirements for ASIL A safety integration.
Technical Context
The APS11760LLHALX-0PL implements a chopper-stabilized vertical Hall sensor with dynamic offset cancellation and low-pass filtering, enabling stable operation under thermal drift and EMI. Its micropower architecture cycles between 50 µs awake time and ~160 ms sleep period, achieving 0.03% duty cycle and 6 µA average ICC at 12 V and 25°C.
It integrates on-chip protection including 40 V load dump tolerance, reverse-battery protection (–18 V), output short-circuit current limiting (25 mA typ), and ±11 kV HBM ESD immunity. The open-drain NMOS output delivers ≤500 mV saturation voltage at 5 mA and supports pull-up voltages up to 24 V.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall-effect switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APS11760LLHALT-0PL | Same specs, but supplied in 7-in. reel (3,000 pcs) vs. 13-in. reel (10,000 pcs); identical electrical and thermal performance | No functional difference; choice depends on production volume and reel handling infrastructure | Select APS11760LLHALT-0PL for pilot builds or lower-volume SMT lines with 7-in. feeder compatibility |
| TLE4913-2K | Unipolar South-only (40 G BOP), 3.5–24 V, 3.5 mA typical ICC - higher power, no micropower mode; SOIC-8 package | Lacks omnipolar capability and ultra-low power; suited for non-battery-powered, high-speed applications requiring faster response | Choose TLE4913-2K only when >10 kHz switching or legacy SOIC-8 footprint is mandatory; not drop-in compatible |
Compared with APS11760LLHALX-0PL, APS11760LLHALT-0PL offers identical functionality in a smaller reel format, while TLE4913-2K trades micropower and omnipolarity for higher speed and legacy packaging-making APS11760LLHALX-0PL optimal for battery-sensitive, magnet-orientation-flexible automotive sensing.

FAQ
What is the sensing orientation of APS11760LLHALX-0PL?
The APS11760LLHALX-0PL uses a vertical Hall-effect element sensitive to magnetic flux parallel to the face of the IC package (X-axis orientation). This differs from planar (Z-axis) devices like the APS11700 series and enables side-approach magnet placement-ideal for compact gear selector or pedal position sensing where space above the IC is constrained. The branded top surface defines the reference plane for field direction.
Does APS11760LLHALX-0PL support both north and south magnetic poles?
Yes, APS11760LLHALX-0PL is an omnipolar device with specified operate points of ±40 G and release points of ±22.5 G (typ.). It activates for either north- or south-polarity fields exceeding its thresholds, eliminating magnet polarity alignment constraints during assembly-a key advantage over unipolar alternatives like APS11760LLHALX-0SL in applications such as lid open/close detection.
What protection features are integrated into APS11760LLHALX-0PL?
APS11760LLHALX-0PL integrates load dump (40 V), reverse-battery (–18 V), output short-circuit current limiting (25 mA typ), and ±11 kV HBM ESD protection. These eliminate the need for external TVS diodes, reverse-polarity diodes, or current-limiting resistors-reducing BOM cost and PCB area while ensuring robustness in automotive 12 V/24 V environments per AEC-Q100 requirements.
How does the micropower operation of APS11760LLHALX-0PL work?
APS11760LLHALX-0PL operates in a periodic micropower mode: it wakes for 50 µs every ~160 ms to sample the Hall signal, then sleeps. This yields 0.03% duty cycle and 6 µA average supply current at 12 V/25°C. The output is latched on the falling edge of the timing pulse and held during sleep-enabling multi-year battery life in always-on vehicle subsystems without compromising magnetic detection fidelity.
Is APS11760LLHALX-0PL qualified for automotive safety applications?
Yes, APS11760LLHALX-0PL is AEC-Q100 qualified and developed as a hardware Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) with ASIL A capability per ISO 26262. It is intended for use in automotive safety-related systems when integrated per the safety manual and datasheet-enabling efficient reuse in higher-ASIL designs (e.g., ASIL B/D) with external diagnostics or redundant architectures.
