Product details
Overview
AH375-PG-B from Diodes Incorporated is a bipolar Hall-effect latched sensor IC designed for electronic commutation in brushless DC motor and fan control systems. It features an integrated Hall plate, amplifier, Schmitt trigger with 60 Gauss hysteresis, open-drain output capable of 25 mA sink current, and operates from 2.2 V to 20 V across –40°C to +125°C ambient.
For engineers reviewing the AH375-PG-B datasheet, AH375-PG-B pinout, AH375-PG-B application, or AH375-PG-B equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin mapping, magnetic switching thresholds (Bop = 5–60 G, Brp = –60 to –5 G), thermal derating curves, and direct alternatives for BLDC rotor position sensing.
Technical Context
The AH375-PG-B implements a single-phase latching architecture where magnetic polarity reversal determines output state retention: South-pole exposure above Bop (≥5 G) pulls OUT low; reversal below Brp (≤–5 G) releases it high. Its internal band-gap regulator enables stable operation across wide supply voltage (2.2–20 V) and temperature (–40°C to +125°C).
No external biasing or pull-up components are required - the open-drain output interfaces directly with MOSFET pre-drivers or logic-level inputs. Magnetic sensitivity is calibrated at 2.5 V minimum supply to ensure valid Bop/Brp behavior, and hysteresis (60 G typ.) suppresses noise-induced chatter during rotational transitions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.2 V to 20 V - supports direct connection to 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V, or 24 V motor control rails without external regulation. |
| Output Type | Open-drain - enables wired-OR configuration, level-shifting, and direct drive of N-channel MOSFET gates. |
| Max Sink Current | 25 mA - sufficient to drive gate capacitance of small-to-medium power MOSFETs in BLDC half-bridge pre-driver stages. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive fan modules and industrial motor controllers. |
| Magnetic Hysteresis | 60 Gauss (typ.) - prevents false triggering during slow or noisy magnetic field transitions near switching thresholds. |
| Bop / Brp Range | 5–60 G / –60 to –5 G - enables reliable detection of standard ferrite or NdFeB rotor magnets at air gaps up to 2.5 mm. |
| Power Dissipation (SIP-3) | 550 mW at 25°C, derated linearly to 0 mW at 150°C - defines maximum continuous output duty cycle in sealed enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
AH375-PG-B is supplied in SIP-3 (Bulk Pack) package - a 3-pin single-inline package with straight leads, 14.0–15.0 mm body length, 2.8–3.2 mm width, and 3.9–4.3 mm height. Pin 1 = Vdd, Pin 2 = GND, Pin 3 = OUT.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Vdd | Positive power supply input | Accepts 2.2–20 V DC; powers internal regulator, Hall plate, and output stage - no external decoupling required for <10 kHz switching. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for Hall sensor, amplifier, and output transistor - must be low-impedance to avoid magnetic offset drift. |
| 3 - OUT | Open-drain output | Sinks up to 25 mA when active; requires external pull-up (e.g., 10 kΩ to 12 V) for logic-high state in commutation timing circuits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bipolar latching operation | Retains output state until magnetic polarity reversal - eliminates need for external latch or microcontroller polling in rotor position feedback. |
| Integrated temperature compensation | Stabilizes Bop/Brp thresholds over –40°C to +125°C - ensures consistent commutation timing across automotive and industrial thermal cycles. |
| Wide supply range (2.2–20 V) | Eliminates dedicated LDO for Hall sensor in multi-rail motor drives - reduces BOM count and PCB area in fan and pump modules. |
| RoHS-compliant & halogen-free | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and JEDEC J-STD-020 standards - supports export compliance for EU, China RoHS, and Japan J-Moss programs. |
Applications
| BLDC Motor Commutation | Brushless Fan Control |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rotor position sensing in 3-phase BLDC motors used in HVAC blowers and power tools. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides digital edge-aligned Hall signals to MCU or gate driver IC for precise 120° electrical phase alignment. Use Value: Enables efficient trapezoidal commutation with <1° timing jitter due to 60 G hysteresis and fast response (<5 µs propagation delay). |
Use Scenario: Speed regulation and stall detection in 12 V/24 V brushless cooling fans for servers and telecom equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Generates tachometer pulses and direction-indicating latched outputs for closed-loop RPM control. Use Value: Delivers robust zero-crossing detection even under EMI-rich environments near switching PSUs, thanks to Schmitt-trigger noise rejection. |
| Revolution Counting | Speed Measurement |
Use Scenario: Bidirectional rotation counting in industrial conveyors and metering pumps using dual-Hall setups. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Outputs quadrature-compatible A/B phase signals when paired with second AH375 or complementary Hall sensor. Use Value: Supports 1x/2x/4x interpolation modes via external logic - achieves ±1 pulse per revolution accuracy at ≤10 kRPM. |
Use Scenario: Real-time RPM monitoring in automotive radiator fans and e-bike motor controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts magnetic pole transitions into TTL-compatible pulse trains fed to microcontroller timer capture units. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity up to 50 kHz pulse frequency (100 kRPM @ 2-pole pair), validated per DS31172 Rev. 8 test data. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall-effect latching sensor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AH3774-WG-7 | Successor device with tighter Bop/Brp tolerance (±5 G vs ±25 G), lower quiescent current (1.5 mA vs 2–4 mA), SC59-only packaging. | Designed for high-precision commutation in space-constrained applications (e.g., drone ESCs); lacks SIP-3 option. | Select AH3774-WG-7 when upgrading legacy AH375 designs requiring improved magnetic repeatability and smaller footprint. |
| US5883LUA-AAA-000 | Unipolar latch (not bipolar); Bop = 35 G, Brp = 25 G; same SIP-3 package; 3.3–24 V supply; 20 mA sink. | Requires magnet polarity reversal for reset - unsuitable for true bipolar rotor tracking but usable in unidirectional speed sensing. | Choose US5883LUA-AAA-000 only for cost-sensitive, unidirectional fan tachometer applications where polarity independence is unnecessary. |
Compared with AH375-PG-B, AH3774-WG-7 offers higher magnetic precision and lower power in SC59, while US5883LUA-AAA-000 provides SIP-3 compatibility at lower cost but sacrifices bipolar functionality - selection depends on whether rotor direction sensing, package fit, or production volume drives the decision.

FAQ
Is AH375-PG-B still in production?
No - AH375-PG-B is officially discontinued and marked obsolete per Diodes' DS31172 Rev. 8 (August 2022). It remains available through authorized distributors and Aetrix Electronics' legacy inventory, with full traceability and documented shelf-life compliance. Engineering support and cross-reference guidance to AH3774 are provided for migration planning.
What is the difference between AH375-PG-B and AH375-PG-A?
AH375-PG-B uses SIP-3 Bulk Pack (straight leads, 1000 pcs/bulk), while AH375-PG-A uses SIP-3 Ammo Pack (spread leads, 4000 pcs/box). Both share identical die, electrical specs, and marking (375 top-side code), differing only in lead form and packaging format - no functional or reliability distinction exists between them.
Can AH375-PG-B operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes - AH375-PG-B functions at 3.3 V, but magnetic performance (Bop/Brp) is only guaranteed above 2.5 V per Note 4 in DS31172. At 3.3 V, typical Bop = 30 G and Brp = –30 G with 60 G hysteresis, enabling reliable detection of standard rotor magnets at ≤1.8 mm air gap in low-voltage BLDC designs.
Does AH375-PG-B require an external pull-up resistor?
Yes - its open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor to define the logic-high voltage level. A 10 kΩ resistor to Vdd (e.g., 12 V) is recommended per typical application circuit on page 2 of DS31172; values between 4.7 kΩ and 47 kΩ are acceptable depending on rise time and bus loading requirements.
