Product details
Overview
AH3326-W-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a high-voltage, high-sensitivity Hall-effect unipolar switch IC in SC59 package, designed for proximity and position sensing in industrial appliances and personal care devices. It operates from 3.0V to 28V, features BOP = 100 G (typ), BRP = 85 G (typ), and delivers open-drain output with 60 mA continuous current capability and 0.2 V typical on-state voltage at 20 mA.
For engineers reviewing the AH3326-W-7 datasheet, AH3326-W-7 pinout, AH3326-W-7 application, or AH3326-W-7 equivalent, this page provides verified magnetic thresholds, thermal derating curves, chopper-stabilized architecture details, and SC59-specific polarity orientation - critical for contactless switch design in high-temperature, high-noise environments.
Technical Context
The AH3326-W-7 uses chopper-stabilized architecture with dynamic offset cancellation to achieve minimal switch-point drift (<±10 G over –40°C to +125°C) and superior temperature stability. Its internal bandgap regulator supplies temperature-compensated bias to all subcircuits, enabling reliable operation across the full 3.0V–28V supply range.
It implements unipolar switching logic: South-pole activation (to non-marking side for SC59), with hysteresis of 15 G (typ). The single open-drain output includes overcurrent limiting (30–55 mA), zener clamps on VDD and OUTPUT pins, and reverse-blocking diode protection - eliminating need for external protection components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| BOP (Operate Point) | 100 G typical - triggers output low when South pole exceeds this flux density at non-marking side of SC59 package |
| BRP (Release Point) | 85 G typical - releases output (high-Z) only after flux drops below this level, providing noise-immune hysteresis |
| VDD Range | 3.0 V to 28 V - supports direct connection to 24 V industrial rails without external regulation |
| VOUT_ON | 0.2 V typical at 20 mA - ensures low power dissipation and compatible with 3.3 V/5 V logic pull-ups |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - validated for use in sealed motor housings and heated appliance enclosures |
| ESD HBM | 8 kV - withstands handling and assembly stress without latch-up or parametric shift |
| Response Time | 4 µs typical - enables detection of fast-moving targets (e.g., rotating blades, actuator arms) |
Pinout & Package
SC59 package: 3-pin surface-mount, 3.0 mm × 2.9 mm body, 0.95 mm height, lead-free and RoHS-compliant. Pin 1 (VDD) and Pin 2 (GND) are adjacent; Pin 3 (OUTPUT) is diagonally opposite.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Power input with integrated reverse-blocking diode and zener clamp (–18 V reverse, 32 V transient) |
| 2 | GND | Reference ground for internal regulator and Hall sensor - requires low-impedance PCB return path |
| 3 | OUTPUT | Open-drain output with 60 mA continuous rating, 30–55 mA current limit, and 28 V zener clamp |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Chopper stabilization | Reduces thermal drift to <±0.05 G/°C and eliminates mechanical stress-induced offset shifts |
| Unipolar South-pole activation (SC59) | Requires magnet on non-part-marking side - simplifies mechanical mounting vs. bipolar alternatives |
| Integrated protection | Eliminates need for external TVS, reverse-polarity diode, or output current-limiting resistor |
| RF noise immunity | Validated against 100 MHz–1 GHz radiated fields per IEC 61000-4-3 - no external filtering required |
| Low startup time | 10 µs typical power-on delay - enables rapid system wake-up in battery-powered devices |
Applications
| Washing Machine Lid Detection | Cordless Power Tool Trigger Sensing |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Detect lid closure in top-load washing machines using a magnet embedded in the lid hinge. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unipolar Hall switch activates output when lid closes (South pole approaches non-marking side of SC59). Use Value: Eliminates mechanical microswitch wear; operates reliably at 90°C ambient inside sealed control panel. |
Use Scenario: Sense trigger pull in cordless drills via magnet mounted on moving trigger lever. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides immediate, bounce-free digital signal to MCU upon trigger actuation (4 µs response). Use Value: Enables precise PWM control of motor speed; survives repeated 24 V battery transients due to integrated zener clamps. |
| Smart Thermostat Fan Speed Control | Industrial Flow Meter Rotor Position |
|
Use Scenario: Monitor fan rotation in HVAC systems using magnet on fan hub and AH3326-W-7 mounted on PCB. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Generates tachometer pulses via open-drain output pulled up to 5 V MCU rail. Use Value: 100 G operate point rejects stray field interference from nearby motors; operates down to 3.0 V during brownout conditions. |
Use Scenario: Detect rotor vane passage in water/gas flow meters with magnets embedded in impeller blades. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Outputs clean, hysteresis-filtered pulse train synchronized to rotor position (BOP/BRP = 100/85 G). Use Value: Chopper stabilization maintains ±5% pulse timing accuracy across –40°C to +125°C - critical for volumetric calibration. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall-effect unipolar switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AL3326EUA-7 | Same BOP/BRP specs but SOT23-3 package; lacks reverse-blocking diode and zener clamp on VDD | Requires external reverse-protection diode and VDD TVS - increases BOM count and board area | Select if footprint space is constrained and external protection is already present |
| US1881LUA-7 | Lower sensitivity (BOP = 35 G typ); no chopper stabilization; 30 V abs max VDD | Higher susceptibility to thermal drift (>±0.2 G/°C) and mechanical stress - unsuitable for sealed motor assemblies | Select only for cost-sensitive, room-temperature consumer applications with stable magnetic fields |
Compared with AL3326EUA-7 and US1881LUA-7, the AH3326-W-7 delivers integrated protection, superior thermal stability, and SC59's higher power dissipation (230 mW at 25°C), making it optimal for industrial-grade contactless switching where reliability and reduced component count are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the correct magnet orientation for AH3326-W-7 in SC59 package?
The AH3326-W-7 in SC59 package requires the South pole to be applied to the non-part-marking side of the package to activate the output. This is explicitly defined in the datasheet's magnetic characteristics table and differs from SOT23/SIP-3 variants, which require South pole on the marking side. Mounting orientation must follow this polarity to ensure reliable switching.
Does AH3326-W-7 require an external pull-up resistor?
Yes - the AH3326-W-7 has an open-drain output and requires an external pull-up resistor (RL) connected between VDD and the OUTPUT pin. The recommended value is 1 kΩ for standard logic interfacing; values from 1 kΩ to 10 kΩ are acceptable depending on rise time and power requirements. No internal pull-up is provided.
Can AH3326-W-7 operate directly from a 24 V industrial supply?
Yes - the AH3326-W-7 is rated for continuous operation from 3.0 V to 28 V, making it fully compatible with nominal 24 V DC industrial rails. Its internal bandgap regulator and chopper-stabilized architecture maintain stable switching thresholds across this full range without external regulation.
How does the chopper stabilization improve performance over conventional Hall switches?
Chopper stabilization in the AH3326-W-7 actively cancels offset voltage drift caused by temperature gradients and mechanical stress, reducing BOP/BRP variation to <±10 G over –40°C to +125°C. This eliminates false triggering in thermally cycling environments and removes the need for system-level calibration during production.
