Product details
Overview
AH3572-SA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a high-voltage, high-sensitivity Hall effect omnipolar switch IC in SOT23 package, designed for proximity and position sensing in consumer appliances and industrial systems. It operates from 3.0V to 28V, features ±20G typical operate point (BOP), ±10G typical release point (BRP), and delivers open-drain output with 30–55mA current limit and <0.4V ON-state voltage at 20mA.
For engineers reviewing the AH3572-SA-7 datasheet, AH3572-SA-7 pinout, AH3572-SA-7 application, or AH3572-SA-7 equivalent, key selection considerations include its wide supply range, chopper-stabilized architecture for temperature stability, reverse battery protection, Zener clamps on VDD/output, and -40°C to +125°C operation in SOT23 footprint.
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 blocks, enabling stable BOP/BRP thresholds over -40°C to +125°C.
It integrates reverse-blocking diode and Zener clamps on both VDD and OUTPUT pins for robustness against reverse polarity and transient overvoltage. The single open-drain output switches low when |B| exceeds BOP (±20G typ) and releases only when |B| falls below BRP (±10G typ), delivering 10µs typical power-on time and 3.75µs response delay.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3.0V to 28V - supports direct connection to 24V industrial rails without external regulation |
| Operate Point (BOP) | ±20G typical - enables reliable actuation with small, low-cost magnets at air gaps up to 3mm |
| Release Point (BRP) | ±10G typical - provides 10G hysteresis to prevent chatter near threshold |
| Output Type | Open-drain with 30–55mA current limit - drives standard pull-up loads while protecting against short-circuit faults |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood, motor control, and industrial enclosure environments |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 6kV - withstands handling and board assembly without additional protection circuitry |
| Power-On Time | 10µs typical - ensures fast system responsiveness after power-up or wake-from-sleep |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - surface-mount, 3-pin, JEDEC-standard outline (2.9mm × 1.3mm × 1.0mm), RoHS-compliant, lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VDD) | Positive supply input | Accepts 3.0–28V DC; includes integrated reverse-blocking diode and 28V Zener clamp for fault tolerance |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return for internal regulator, sensor, and output stage; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 3 (OUTPUT) | Open-drain output | Sinks up to 55mA when active; requires external pull-up; protected by Zener clamp and current limiting |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar magnetic sensitivity | Detects either South or North pole - eliminates magnet orientation constraints in mechanical assemblies |
| Chopper-stabilized architecture | Reduces thermal drift of BOP/BRP to ±10G over full temperature range - ensures consistent switching across environments |
| Integrated protection network | Reverse-blocking diode + dual Zener clamps (VDD & OUTPUT) - enables drop-in use in unregulated 24V systems without external TVS |
| Low start-up latency | 10µs power-on time - supports fast wake-up in battery-powered or duty-cycled sensing nodes |
| RF noise immunity | Validated performance in noisy EMI environments (e.g., motor drives, switching PSUs) without added filtering |
Applications
| Refrigerator Door Detection | Industrial Flow Meter Sensing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Detect door open/close state in smart refrigerators using a magnet mounted on the door and AH3572-SA-7 on the frame. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Omnipolar Hall switch providing contactless, wear-free position feedback with 10µs response.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-sensitive position indicator interfacing directly to 3.3V or 5V microcontroller GPIO. Use Value: Single-supply operation from thermostat's 3.3V LDO avoids extra level-shifting; -40°C rating ensures outdoor unit compatibility. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AL3505-30D | BOP/BRP ±30G/±15G; wider thresholds but lower sensitivity; no reverse-battery protection | Requires stronger magnets or smaller air gaps; unsuitable for reverse-polarity-prone 24V systems | Select if higher magnetic immunity is needed and reverse protection is handled externally |
| US1881EUA-AAA-000 | Lower VDD max (24V); BOP/BRP ±25G/±15G; no integrated Zener clamp on output | Limited to 24V nominal rails; needs external TVS on output for surge protection | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where 24V compliance and external clamping are acceptable |
Compared with AL3505-30D and US1881EUA-AAA-000, the AH3572-SA-7 uniquely combines 28V operation, reverse-battery tolerance, dual Zener clamps, and ±20G sensitivity in SOT23 - making it optimal for ruggedized 24V industrial and appliance designs requiring minimal external protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current for AH3572-SA-7?
The AH3572-SA-7 features an internal output current limit of 30–55mA, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This protects the device during output short-circuit conditions while allowing direct drive of standard logic-level pull-up resistors or small indicator LEDs without external current limiting.
Does AH3572-SA-7 require an external capacitor on VDD?
Yes - a 10nF to 100nF ceramic decoupling capacitor (CIN) is recommended between VDD and GND, placed as close as possible to the device pins. This stabilizes the internal bandgap regulator and enhances immunity to power supply noise and RF interference, per the Typical Applications Circuit in the datasheet.
Can AH3572-SA-7 operate with a 3.3V microcontroller I/O pin as pull-up?
Yes - the open-drain OUTPUT pin is compatible with 3.3V pull-up resistors. When active, the output sinks current with ≤0.4V saturation voltage at 20mA, ensuring solid LOW-level recognition by 3.3V logic. No level-shifting is required, provided the microcontroller's I/O pin is configured as input with internal or external pull-up.
Is AH3572-SA-7 pin-compatible with other Diodes Hall switches in SOT23?
No - AH3572-SA-7 has a unique pinout (VDD-GND-OUTPUT) optimized for its protection architecture. While physically identical to standard SOT23, it is not pin-compatible with earlier Diodes Hall switches like AH180x or AH33xx series, which use different pin assignments (e.g., OUTPUT-GND-VDD). Always verify pin mapping before PCB layout.
