Product details
Overview
AH1807-P-B from Diodes Incorporated is a medium sensitivity, micropower omnipolar Hall-effect switch IC designed for magnetic tamper detection in smart electricity meters and low-power industrial position sensing. It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V, consumes only 8–16 µA average supply current at 3V, features open-drain output with 0.1–0.3V on-state voltage at 1mA, and functions across –40°C to +125°C.
For engineers reviewing the AH1807 datasheet, AH1807 pinout, AH1807 application, or AH1807 equivalent, this device is selected for battery-powered proximity switching where polarity-agnostic magnetic actuation, chopper-stabilized thermal stability, and SIP-3L package compatibility with through-hole assembly are critical design requirements.
Technical Context
The AH1807 uses dual Hall plates and chopper stabilization to cancel offset drift and achieve ±15 Gauss operate point tolerance over temperature. Its sleep/awake duty cycle (0.1% typical) enables ultra-low average power consumption while maintaining 75–125 µs response latency after magnetic field change.
It delivers true omnipolar operation: output switches low for either North or South pole exposure above Bop (±60–105 Gauss), releases below Brp (±40–100 Gauss), and remains off with zero field-enabling single-sensor position detection without magnet orientation constraints.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports direct connection to Li-ion, 3.3V, or 5V rails without regulation. |
| Average Supply Current | 8–16 µA @ 3V, 25°C - enables >10-year battery life in meter tamper detection. |
| Output Type | Open-drain - allows flexible pull-up to any logic rail up to 5.5V and wired-OR interfacing. |
| Operate Point (Bop) | ±60–105 Gauss - medium sensitivity balances noise immunity and reliable actuation distance. |
| Hysteresis (Bhy) | 10–20 Gauss - prevents chatter near threshold in vibrating or noisy mechanical environments. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for outdoor smart meter enclosures and industrial control panels. |
| ESD Rating | 6 kV HBM - withstands handling and field-level electrostatic discharge without protection circuitry. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SIP-3L (Straight Lead, Bulk Pack). Compact 3-pin through-hole package with 1.55 mm pitch, 4.1 mm height, and 14 mm body length-optimized for automated insertion and high-density PCB layouts in utility meter modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Power input - must be decoupled with 10–100 nF capacitor per datasheet recommendation. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference - shared return path for Hall sensor, logic, and output driver. |
| 3 | OUTPUT | Open-drain output - sinks up to 2.5 mA; requires external pull-up (10–100 kΩ) to define logic-high level. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar magnetic actuation | Responds identically to North or South pole - eliminates magnet orientation dependency in mechanical assemblies. |
| Chopper-stabilized architecture | Reduces temperature-induced switch point drift to <±15 Gauss over full range - ensures consistent trip thresholds in unregulated environments. |
| Micropower sleep mode | 5–28 µA sleep current - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in tamper-detection circuits. |
| RF noise immunity | Validated against common industrial EMI sources - maintains stable output without additional filtering in noisy meter cabinets. |
| High ESD robustness | 6 kV HBM rating - survives handling and field installation without external TVS diodes. |
Applications
| Smart Electricity Meter Tamper Detection | Industrial Door/Tray Position Sensing |
|---|---|
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Threshold-based proximity sensor triggering at fixed vertical positions. Use Value: 10–20 Gauss hysteresis prevents false toggling due to fluid slosh or mechanical oscillation near trip point. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall-effect switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Melexis US1881 | Higher sensitivity (Bop ±30G), higher IDD(avg) (25 µA), SOT23-3 package | Better for weak-field or short-gap sensing; less suitable for long-life battery use | Select when magnetic air gap is constrained and power budget allows >2× current draw |
| Allegro A1120EUA-T | Bipolar-only (South pole only), wider VDD range (3–24V), TO-92 package | Requires magnet polarity control; suited for high-voltage industrial controls | Select when system uses strong magnets and needs extended voltage headroom beyond 5.5V |
Compared with US1881 and A1120EUA-T, the AH1807-P-B uniquely balances medium sensitivity, sub-20 µA average current, omnipolar operation, and SIP-3L through-hole compatibility-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, long-life, mechanically flexible tamper and position sensing in utility and industrial hardware.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended pull-up resistor value for the AH1807-P-B open-drain output?
The datasheet specifies a recommended pull-up resistance range of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ. Using 100 kΩ maximizes current savings but increases rise time; 10 kΩ ensures fast edge transitions (<1 µs) while drawing ≤0.5 mA from the pull-up rail. Selection depends on required signal slew rate and system power budget.
Does the AH1807-P-B require an external bypass capacitor?
Yes - a 10 nF to 100 nF ceramic capacitor between VDD and GND is required per the datasheet to stabilize the internal regulator and enhance RF noise immunity. Omitting it may cause erratic switching or increased susceptibility to EMI in electrically noisy environments like smart meter enclosures.
Can the AH1807-P-B operate reliably at 2.5V supply with full magnetic specification?
Yes - all magnetic characteristics (Bop, Brp, Bhy) and electrical parameters (IDD, VOUT_ON) are guaranteed across the full 2.5V–5.5V range, including at 2.5V. The chopper-stabilized design maintains performance down to minimum VDD without calibration or adjustment.
Is the SIP-3L package of AH1807-P-B compatible with wave soldering processes?
Yes - the SIP-3L package is rated for standard wave soldering profiles per JEDEC J-STD-020. Its lead finish is matte tin, and thermal performance data confirms safe operation up to 230 mW at 25°C ambient, supporting typical industrial reflow and wave soldering cycles without derating.
