Product details
Overview
AH3574-P-B from Diodes Incorporated is a high-voltage, high-sensitivity Hall effect omnipolar switch IC in SIP-3 (Bulk Pack) package, operating from 3.0V to 28V supply, with ±40G typical operate point (BOP), ±25G typical release point (BRP), and -40°C to +125°C temperature range-designed for non-contact position sensing in industrial flow meters and appliance door-open detection.
For engineers reviewing the AH3574-P-B datasheet, AH3574-P-B pinout, AH3574-P-B application, or AH3574-P-B equivalent, this device delivers chopper-stabilized magnetic switching with reverse battery protection, Zener clamping on VDD and output, open-drain output current limiting (30–55 mA), and robust ESD immunity (>6 kV HBM) for reliable operation in noisy, wide-voltage environments.
Technical Context
The AH3574 employs dynamic offset cancellation via chopper stabilization at 800 kHz, enabling minimal switch-point drift (<±15 G hysteresis) across -40°C to +125°C. Its internal bandgap regulator supplies temperature-compensated bias to analog blocks, ensuring stable BOP/BRP thresholds independent of VDD variation.
It integrates reverse-blocking diode and Zener clamps on both VDD and OUTPUT pins, supporting fault-tolerant operation under reverse-battery (-28 V) and overvoltage transients. The single open-drain output features active current limiting (IOCL = 30–55 mA) and low saturation voltage (VOUT_ON ≤ 0.4 V @ 20 mA).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3.0 V to 28 V - supports direct connection to 24 V industrial rails without external regulation |
| Omnipolar Operate Point (BOP) | ±40 G typical - activates with either North or South pole, simplifying magnet placement |
| Hysteresis (BHY) | 15 G typical - prevents chatter near threshold in vibrating or noisy mechanical environments |
| Output Type | Open-drain with 60 mA continuous rating - compatible with standard pull-up resistors and microcontroller GPIO inputs |
| ESD Rating | >6 kV HBM - withstands handling and board-level electrostatic discharge without protection circuitry |
| Startup Time | 10 µs typical - enables fast response in real-time proximity monitoring applications |
| Chopping Frequency | 800 kHz - suppresses low-frequency noise and offsets while maintaining sub-µs response latency |
Pinout & Package
Package: SIP-3 (Bulk Pack), straight-lead, surface-mount package with 1.5 mm body width, 14.5 mm length, and 3.0 mm width - optimized for automated insertion and high-density PCB layouts in industrial sensors.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Power input with integrated reverse-blocking diode and 28 V Zener clamp - tolerates -28 V reverse battery and transient overvoltage |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for internal regulator and Hall sensor - shared return path for all analog and digital blocks |
| 3 | OUTPUT | Open-drain N-channel output with 30–55 mA current limit and 28 V Zener clamp - drives external pull-up to logic-high or sinks load directly |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar magnetic sensitivity | Activates with either pole orientation - eliminates need for magnet polarity alignment during assembly |
| Chopper-stabilized architecture | 800 kHz modulation reduces thermal drift and 1/f noise - maintains ±25 G BRP stability over full temperature range |
| Integrated reverse-battery protection | Withstands -28 V applied to VDD - protects downstream circuitry in automotive or field-service scenarios |
| Zener clamping on VDD and OUTPUT | Clamps transients to ≤28 V - avoids external TVS diodes in cost-sensitive industrial designs |
| Wide operating temperature range | -40°C to +125°C ambient - qualified for use inside sealed motor housings and HVAC control modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar omnipolar Hall switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AL3505-30D | Narrower supply range (2.5–24 V); lower BOP (±30 G); no reverse-battery rating | Limited to low-voltage consumer electronics; unsuitable for 28 V industrial rails or reverse-polarity environments | Select when cost is critical and system operates strictly within 24 V with controlled polarity. |
| US1881EUA-AMI | Higher BOP (±50 G); no Zener clamp on output; 50 mA IOCL only | Better for weak-field sensing but lacks output overvoltage protection needed in noisy industrial wiring | Prefer where magnetic field strength is marginal but system-level transient suppression is already implemented. |
Compared with AL3505-30D and US1881EUA-AMI, the AH3574-P-B uniquely combines 28 V operation, reverse-battery tolerance, dual Zener clamping, and ±40 G sensitivity-making it the only choice for unregulated 24 V industrial sensing with field-reversal risk and minimal external protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable reverse voltage on the VDD pin?
The AH3574-P-B incorporates an internal reverse-blocking diode and is rated for -28 V reverse supply voltage across the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). This allows safe operation in automotive or field-service scenarios where battery polarity may be inadvertently reversed, without requiring external protection components.
Does the AH3574-P-B require an external capacitor on the VDD pin?
Yes - a 10 nF to 100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitor (CIN) is recommended between VDD and GND, placed as close as possible to the SIP-3 package. This stabilizes the internal bandgap regulator, improves noise immunity, and ensures reliable start-up within the specified 10 µs typical power-on time.
Can the AH3574-P-B drive an LED directly?
No - the AH3574-P-B has an open-drain output with 60 mA continuous current rating, but its output saturation voltage rises above 0.4 V at 20 mA. Driving an LED typically requires >1.8 V forward drop and stable current control; a dedicated driver or current-limiting resistor + external transistor is required for reliable LED indication.
Is the SIP-3 (Bulk Pack) variant pin-compatible with the SOT23 version?
No - AH3574-P-B (SIP-3 Bulk Pack) uses a 3-pin inline configuration (VDD-GND-OUTPUT), while AH3574-SA-7 (SOT23) follows standard SOT-23 pinout (VDD-OUTPUT-GND). Layouts, footprints, and PCB assembly processes differ; they are not mechanically or electrically interchangeable without redesign.
