Product details
Overview
AH3572-P-A from Diodes Incorporated is a high-voltage, high-sensitivity Hall effect omnipolar switch IC designed for non-contact position and proximity sensing in consumer appliances, smart home systems, and industrial equipment. It operates from 3.0V to 28V, features ±20G typical operate point (BOP), ±10G typical release point (BRP), and delivers open-drain output with overcurrent limiting and Zener clamping on supply and output pins.
For engineers reviewing the AH3572-P-A datasheet, AH3572-P-A pinout, AH3572-P-A application, or AH3572-P-A equivalent, key selection considerations include its wide voltage range, chopper-stabilized architecture for temperature stability, omnidirectional magnetic polarity response, and dual-package availability (SOT23 and SIP-3) for mechanical integration flexibility.
Technical Context
The AH3572 employs chopper-stabilized architecture with dynamic offset cancellation to minimize switch-point drift across temperature and supply voltage. Its internal bandgap regulator provides temperature-compensated biasing for analog circuitry, enabling stable operation from −40°C to +125°C.
Magnetic sensing is implemented via a Hall element with bipolar threshold detection: output switches low when |B| exceeds BOP (±20G typ), remains latched until |B| falls below BRP (±10G typ), delivering 10G typical hysteresis. The single open-drain output supports external pull-up and includes integrated overcurrent limit (30–55 mA) and Zener clamps on VDD and OUTPUT pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3.0V to 28V - enables direct interface with 12V/24V industrial and appliance rails without LDO pre-regulation |
| Operate Point (BOP) | ±20G typical - detects weak magnetic fields from small or distant magnets in space-constrained designs |
| Release Point (BRP) | ±10G typical - ensures reliable hysteresis (10G) to prevent chatter near switching thresholds |
| Output Type | Open-drain with 60mA continuous rating - supports flexible pull-up configurations and direct interfacing with MCU GPIOs or logic inputs |
| Start-up Time | 10µs typical - guarantees valid output state within microseconds after VDD reaches 3V, critical for fast-response sensing |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 6kV - provides robust handling during assembly and field operation in unshielded environments |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive-adjacent, industrial control, and HVAC applications |
Pinout & Package
Available in industry-standard SOT23 (3-pin) and SIP-3 (3-pin straight/spread lead) packages. Both packages expose identical pin functions: Pin 1 = VDD (power input), Pin 2 = GND (ground reference), Pin 3 = OUTPUT (open-drain output).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VDD) | Positive supply input | Accepts 3.0–28V DC; includes reverse-blocking diode and Zener clamp for transient protection up to −32V |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for internal circuits and output load current; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 3 (OUTPUT) | Open-drain output | Sinks up to 60mA; requires external pull-up; includes Zener clamp (28V) and current limiting (30–55mA) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar magnetic response | Detects both North and South poles with identical BOP/BRP thresholds - eliminates magnet orientation constraints in mechanical assemblies |
| Chopper-stabilized architecture | Reduces offset drift to <1G/°C - maintains consistent switching points across full temperature range without calibration |
| Integrated supply protection | Reverse-blocking diode + Zener clamp on VDD - withstands −32V reverse battery conditions and 32V transients |
| Noise-immune design | 800kHz chopping frequency + low-pass filtering - rejects RF interference and EMI common in motor-driven appliances |
| Lead-free & green compliance | RoHS 3, halogen- and antimony-free (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb) - meets global environmental and safety standards |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall effect omnipolar switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AL3505W-7 | Narrower voltage range (2.5–24V); lower BOP (±15G typ); no reverse-battery protection | Limited to 24V systems; less suitable for 28V industrial rails or reverse-polarity-prone installations | Select if cost-sensitive and operating strictly within 24V with controlled power architecture |
| US1881EUA-AM | Higher BOP (±30G typ); wider hysteresis (15G); no Zener clamp on output | Better for strong-field environments but less sensitive to weak magnets; lacks output overvoltage protection | Choose when detecting large neodymium magnets at larger air gaps where higher trip thresholds are acceptable |
Compared with AL3505W-7 and US1881EUA-AM, the AH3572-P-A uniquely combines 28V operation, reverse-battery tolerance, and ±20G sensitivity-making it optimal for 24V+ industrial controls and compact consumer devices requiring robustness and fine magnetic resolution.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for continuous operation?
The AH3572-P-A is rated for continuous operation from 3.0V to 28V. While its absolute maximum VDD is 32V, this is a transient stress rating only-not intended for sustained use. Operating above 28V risks premature degradation or failure, especially at elevated temperatures.
Does the device require an external capacitor on VDD?
Yes, a 10nF–100nF ceramic decoupling capacitor (CIN) is recommended between VDD and GND. This stabilizes the internal bandgap regulator, suppresses supply noise, and improves RF immunity-particularly critical in motor-driven or switching-power-supply environments.
Can the AH3572-P-A directly drive an LED or relay coil?
No-it provides only an open-drain output with 60mA continuous sink capability. Driving LEDs or relays requires an external pull-up resistor and often a buffer transistor or driver IC, especially for inductive loads. Its output is optimized for interfacing with microcontrollers or logic gates.
How does the omnipolar functionality affect magnet placement in mechanical designs?
Omnipolar operation means the AH3572-P-A activates with either North or South pole facing the marked side of the package-eliminating need to orient magnets directionally. This simplifies assembly, reduces BOM variants, and increases tolerance to magnet misalignment in rotating or sliding mechanisms.
