Product details
Overview
AH9249NTR-G1 from Diodes Incorporated is an ultra-sensitive, micropower omnipolar Hall-effect switch with latched digital output, designed for battery-powered handheld equipment including notebook cover detection and low-duty-cycle magnet-actuated wake switches. It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V, draws only 6–10 μA in sleep mode, and features chopper-stabilized magnetic switching with ±30–55 G operating points and 10 G hysteresis.
For engineers reviewing the AH9249NTR-G1 datasheet, AH9249NTR-G1 pinout, AH9249NTR-G1 application, or AH9249NTR-G1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its omnidirectional pole sensitivity, sub-15 μA average current, TO-92S/SOT-23/DFN package options, built-in pull-up resistor, and NRND status requiring design migration planning.
Technical Context
The AH9249 implements a chopper-stabilized Hall sensor with sleep/awake timing logic to reduce average current consumption. Its comparator uses bipolar magnetic thresholds (BOPN/BOPS and BRPN/BRPS) enabling activation by either north or south pole, with hysteresis ensuring noise immunity.
Internal biasing, Hall plate sensing, and output latch are integrated in a single CMOS die. The device transitions between awake mode (150 μs response) and sleep mode (90–120 ms duration), maintaining output state during sleep while reducing supply current to ≤10 μA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion or dual-cell alkaline battery operation without regulation |
| Average Current | 10–15 μA - enables multi-year battery life in low-duty-cycle wake-switch applications |
| Omnipolar BOP | ±30–55 G - detects either magnetic pole orientation without mechanical polarity alignment |
| Hysteresis | 10 G - prevents chatter near switching threshold under fluctuating or noisy fields |
| Sleep Current | 6–10 μA - maintains latched output state while minimizing quiescent power draw |
| Awake Time | 150 μs - ensures responsive detection of fast-moving magnets (e.g., clamshell lid closure) |
| Output Type | Open-drain with internal pull-up - simplifies PCB layout and eliminates external resistor requirement |
Pinout & Package
AH9249NTR-G1 is packaged in SOT-23-3, a surface-mount plastic case measuring 2.95 × 2.82 × 1.45 mm with gull-wing leads. Pin 1 (VCC) and Pin 3 (GND) provide power and reference; Pin 2 (OUTPUT) delivers open-drain latched signal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Positive supply input - must be decoupled with ≥10 nF capacitor near package |
| 2 | OUTPUT | Open-drain latched output - sinks up to 1 mA; pulled high internally to VCC |
| 3 | GND | Ground reference - connects to system ground plane for stable Hall sensing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar magnetic detection | Enables use with unmarked or bidirectionally installed magnets-no polarity orientation required during assembly |
| Chopper stabilization | Compensates for offset drift over temperature and time, maintaining ±5 G BOP stability from –40°C to +85°C |
| Integrated pull-up resistor | Eliminates need for external pull-up, reducing BOM count and board space in space-constrained handheld designs |
| ESD robustness | 4000 V HBM / 600 V MM rating - withstands handling and system-level ESD events without protection diodes |
| Green RoHS compliance | Lead-free, halogen-free, antimony-free construction - meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS709C |
Applications
| Cover Switch in Notebook PC | Handheld Wireless Awake Switch |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall-effect latching switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AH9247 | Same pinout and function but higher BOP (±45–70 G); no sleep mode - continuous 2–4 mA operation | Not suitable for battery-critical applications; used where faster response or higher field immunity is needed | Select AH9247 only if average current >10 μA is acceptable and magnetic environment exceeds ±55 G |
| AL3320EUTRT | Lower sensitivity (BOP ±60–100 G); no chopper stabilization; 3.3V-only supply; 1.5 μA sleep current | Requires stronger magnets; lacks temperature stability across –40°C to +85°C range | Prefer AL3320EUTRT only when ultra-low sleep current is primary requirement and field strength is consistently >60 G |
Compared with AH9249NTR-G1, AH9247 sacrifices battery life for higher magnetic immunity, while AL3320EUTRT trades sensitivity and thermal stability for lower sleep current - making AH9249NTR-G1 the optimal balance for general-purpose low-power omnipolar switching.

FAQ
Is AH9249NTR-G1 pin-compatible with other Diodes Hall switches?
AH9249NTR-G1 shares the SOT-23-3 pinout (VCC–OUTPUT–GND) with AH9247 and AH9250, but functional differences exist: AH9247 lacks sleep mode, and AH9250 is unipolar. Direct replacement requires validation of magnetic thresholds and current budget.
What does "NRND" mean for AH9249NTR-G1?
"NRND" (Not Recommended for New Design) indicates Diodes has superseded AH9249 with newer Hall switches like AH9251 or AH9260. Existing designs may continue using AH9249NTR-G1, but new projects should evaluate successors offering improved sensitivity or lower sleep current.
Can AH9249NTR-G1 operate from a 1.8V supply?
No. AH9249NTR-G1 requires minimum 2.5V supply per datasheet specifications. Operation below 2.5V risks undefined output behavior, failure to latch, or increased susceptibility to noise due to insufficient internal bias headroom.
Does AH9249NTR-G1 require an external pull-up resistor?
No. AH9249NTR-G1 integrates a pull-up resistor to VCC on the OUTPUT pin. Adding an external pull-up creates parallel resistance, weakening drive strength and potentially increasing power consumption without benefit.
