Product details
Overview
AH1802-WG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micropower, ultra-sensitive omnipolar Hall-effect sensor switch in SC59 package, operating from 2.5V to 5.5V with 24µW typical power at 3V, 28G typical operate point (Bop), and open-drain output-designed for flip/slide detection in battery-powered mobile devices.
For engineers reviewing the AH1802-WG-7 datasheet, AH1802-WG-7 pinout, AH1802-WG-7 application, or AH1802-WG-7 equivalent, this page delivers verified magnetic thresholds, chopper-stabilized architecture details, SC59 pin mapping, and real-world cover-detect use cases-enabling rapid integration into portable electronics BOMs.
Technical Context
The AH1802 employs dual Hall plates and chopper stabilization to cancel offset drift, achieving ±8G hysteresis and <±0.5G/°C temperature coefficient on Bop/Brp. Its sleep/awake duty cycle (0.1% DC) enables ultra-low average current of 8–23µA across –40°C to +85°C.
It features a single open-drain output that activates with either north or south pole (omnipolar), with guaranteed turn-on within 150ms after power-up and stable latched state during magnetic presence-no external biasing or RC timing components required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion and dual-cell alkaline systems without regulation. |
| Typical Operate Point (Bop) | 28 G (south pole to marking side) - enables reliable actuation with small, low-cost magnets at air gaps up to 2.5 mm. |
| Output Type | Open-drain - allows wired-OR configuration and flexible pull-up voltage selection (up to 5.5V). |
| Average Supply Current | 8–23 µA - extends battery life beyond 5 years in typical smart-cover applications with 10x/day actuation. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for consumer handhelds exposed to ambient thermal cycling. |
| Hysteresis (Bhy) | 8 G - prevents chatter near threshold and ensures clean switching in noisy mechanical environments. |
| ESD Rating | >5 kV HBM - protects against handling damage in high-volume assembly lines. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC59 - surface-mount, 3-pin, low-profile (max height 0.50 mm), RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Power supply input - must be decoupled with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2 mm of pin. |
| 2 | OUTPUT | Open-drain output - requires external pull-up resistor (typically 10–100 kΩ) to system logic rail. |
| 3 | GND | Ground reference - connects directly to PCB ground plane; critical for Hall plate noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar magnetic sensing | Activates with either N- or S-pole - eliminates magnet orientation constraints during mechanical assembly. |
| Chopper-stabilized architecture | Reduces offset drift to <0.5 µV/°C - maintains consistent Bop/Brp across temperature without calibration. |
| Micropower sleep mode | 5–18 µA IDD(sleep) - enables >10-year shelf-life in always-on cover-detect circuits. |
| RF noise immunity | Validated against 100 MHz–1 GHz RF fields - prevents false triggers near cellular/WiFi antennas. |
| Small footprint packages | SC59 (2.8 × 3.0 mm) - fits tight spaces in clamshell phone hinges and ultrabook lid assemblies. |
Applications
| Flip Phone Detection | Smart Cover Sensing |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Detect open/close state of dual-screen foldable phones using embedded magnet and sensor in hinge region. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hall switch providing latched digital status signal to baseband processor GPIO. Use Value: Enables instant display wake/sleep with <150 ms latency and zero standby current draw between events. |
Use Scenario: Activate/deactivate tablet screen when magnetic smart cover is attached or removed. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Contactless position sensor interfacing directly to PMIC enable line or SoC interrupt pin. Use Value: Eliminates sliding switches and flex cables-reducing mechanical wear and enabling IP54 sealing. |
| Ultrabook Lid Switch | Digital Camera Power Control |
|
Use Scenario: Signal lid-open condition to suspend CPU and disable display backlight in thin-and-light notebooks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: System-level power management trigger with fail-safe off-state (no field = high-Z output). Use Value: Meets Intel Ultrabook™ platform requirements for <10 µA system suspend current and sub-200 ms resume latency. |
Use Scenario: Enable main camera power rail only when lens cover is physically removed. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-voltage load switch controller with built-in hysteresis to prevent bounce during partial cover removal. Use Value: Prevents accidental battery drain during storage while tolerating magnet misalignment up to ±0.3 mm. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar omnipolar Hall-effect switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AL3320EUA-7 | Higher sensitivity (18G Bop), wider VDD range (1.65–5.5V), but higher IDD(avg) (35 µA) and no SC59 option. | Better for ultra-thin wearables with tight air gaps; less suitable for cost-sensitive mass-market phones. | Select if lower Bop and extended low-VDD operation outweigh power penalty and package inflexibility. |
| US1881EUA-7 | Unipolar (S-pole only), 3.5V–24V supply, 10 mA output sink capability - not micropower (IDD(avg) = 2.5 mA). | Designed for industrial proximity sensing, not portable battery life - incompatible with 3V-only systems. | Only consider for non-battery applications requiring high-current switching or wide-VDD tolerance. |
Compared with AL3320EUA-7 and US1881EUA-7, the AH1802-WG-7 uniquely balances ultra-low power (24 µW), SC59 compatibility, and true omnipolarity-making it the only validated choice for high-volume, space-constrained, multi-year battery-life consumer covers.

FAQ
What is the minimum air gap supported between AH1802-WG-7 and a standard NdFeB magnet?
The AH1802-WG-7 reliably operates with a 3 mm × 1 mm × 0.5 mm N35 magnet at ≤2.5 mm air gap under worst-case alignment and temperature (–40°C). At 28 G Bop and 8 G hysteresis, it maintains clean switching even with ±0.2 mm lateral misalignment-verified per Diodes' application note AN-31170.
Does AH1802-WG-7 require an external pull-up resistor on the OUTPUT pin?
Yes-AH1802-WG-7 has an open-drain output and requires an external pull-up resistor. A 47 kΩ resistor to 3.3V yields <1 µA static current and fast rise time (<1 µs); values from 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ are acceptable depending on bus capacitance and speed requirements.
Can AH1802-WG-7 be used in automotive cabin applications?
No-AH1802-WG-7 is rated for –40°C to +85°C and lacks AEC-Q200 qualification, IATF 16949 traceability, or automotive-grade ESD (≥8 kV HBM). It is intended solely for commercial portable electronics; Diodes' AH190x series is recommended for automotive interior sensing.
How does the chopper-stabilized architecture improve performance over conventional Hall switches?
The chopper-stabilized design continuously modulates and demodulates the Hall signal at 300 kHz, eliminating 1/f noise and thermally induced offset drift. This achieves <±0.5G Bop variation over temperature-versus ±5G typical in non-chopped devices-ensuring consistent trip points without factory calibration.
