Product details
Overview
AH49FQ-W-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a linear Hall effect IC designed for contactless magnetic field sensing in automotive and industrial systems. It delivers a ratiometric analog voltage output (2.5 V ±0.25 V at B=0 G, 5 V supply), with sensitivity of 2.1 mV/Gauss, ±800 Gauss linear range, and operates from 3 V to 8 V supply across –40°C to +105°C. Used in position, liquid level, and motor control sensing.
For engineers reviewing the AH49FQ-W-7 datasheet, AH49FQ-W-7 pinout, AH49FQ-W-7 application, or AH49FQ-W-7 equivalent, this page provides verified functional specifications, SC59 package layout, AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification status, temperature-stable quiescent output, and real-world use cases in ferrous detection and rotary encoders.
Technical Context
The AH49FQ-W-7 integrates a Hall sensor element, low-noise amplifier, and precision resistor network on a single die to deliver stable, temperature-compensated analog output. Its architecture supports bidirectional magnetic field response (±Gauss) without polarity switching circuitry.
It features a single sourcing output stage with 60–120 Ω output impedance, enabling direct interface to ADCs or op-amps without external buffering. The device's 410 Hz–10 kHz noise bandwidth (90 μV RMS) eliminates need for external RC filtering in most motion-sensing applications.

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VCC) | Positive supply input | Accepts 3–8 V DC; internal regulator not present-supply must be clean and stable |
| 2 (OUT) | Analog voltage output | Current-sourcing, 60–120 Ω impedance; connects directly to 12-bit+ ADC or instrumentation amp |
| 3 (GND) | Reference ground | Must be low-impedance return path; shared with VCC return to minimize offset drift |

FAQ
What is the recommended bypass capacitor for AH49FQ-W-7?
A 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed between VCC and GND, within 2 mm of the SC59 pins, is specified in the datasheet to suppress high-frequency supply noise and stabilize quiescent output. Larger bulk capacitance (e.g., 1 µF) may be added upstream but does not replace the local 100 nF requirement.
Can AH49FQ-W-7 operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes-AH49FQ-W-7 is fully specified down to 3 V supply. At 3.3 V, quiescent output is ~1.65 V (ratiometric), sensitivity drops to ~1.4 mV/G, and output span narrows to ~0.8–2.5 V, remaining usable for medium-range field detection with appropriate ADC reference scaling.
Is AH49FQ-W-7 sensitive to magnet orientation relative to the package marking?
Yes-the Hall element is located beneath the top surface marked "AH49FQ" on the SC59 package. Maximum sensitivity occurs when the magnetic field vector is perpendicular to that surface (i.e., axial field). Lateral or tangential fields yield reduced response and require characterization per application.
Does AH49FQ-W-7 require external temperature compensation?
No-internal precision resistors provide factory-trimmed temperature compensation, maintaining quiescent output within ±0.3 V and sensitivity variation within ±15% over –40°C to +105°C. No external circuitry is needed for automotive-grade thermal stability.
