Product details
Overview
SI7205-B-00-IV from Silicon Labs is a high-voltage omnipolar Hall-effect switch sensor in SOT23-3 package, delivering 3.0 mT maximum operate point (BOP), 0.8 mT minimum release point (BRP), open-drain output, and operation across 3.3–26.5 V supply with −40 to +125 °C temperature range. It enables robust position sensing in automotive HVAC actuators and industrial motor control where high-voltage tolerance and field immunity are critical.
For engineers reviewing the SI7205-B-00-IV datasheet, SI7205-B-00-IV pinout, SI7205-B-00-IV application, or SI7205-B-00-IV equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1000 Hz sample rate, 950 µA typical current consumption at full rate, open-drain output drive capability up to 11.4 mA sink, and compatibility with high-voltage automotive transients per ISO 7637-2-2-11.
Technical Context
The SI7205-B-00-IV integrates a chopper-stabilized Hall element, 13-bit ADC, digital signal processing for temperature/offset drift compensation, and configurable magnetic threshold detection logic. Its output toggles based on z-axis magnetic field crossing pre-programmed BOP/BRP thresholds without external components.
It operates in a fixed configuration: omnipolar switching mode, open-drain output, 20 mT full-scale range, and factory-set hysteresis of 0.6 mT. Power management supports continuous sampling at up to 1 kHz or low-duty-cycle operation via internal timing - no external clock or control required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| BOP max | 3.0 mT - defines strongest field needed to reliably trigger output transition in presence of noise and temperature variation |
| BRP min | 0.8 mT - ensures clean release after magnet removal, preventing chatter near threshold |
| Supply voltage | 3.3–26.5 V - supports direct connection to automotive battery rails and industrial 24 V systems without regulation |
| Output type | Open-drain - allows wired-OR logic, level shifting, and direct interface with microcontroller GPIO or PLC inputs |
| Sample rate | 1000 Hz - enables real-time detection of fast mechanical motion such as BLDC rotor position or valve actuation |
| Current consumption | 950 µA typical at 1000 Hz - balances responsiveness and power budget in always-on industrial sensors |
| ESD rating | 8 kV HBM - provides robustness against handling and system-level electrostatic discharge in manufacturing and field service |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 surface-mount package (JEDEC MO-193 AB), 2.9 mm × 2.75 mm × 1.15 mm body height, with gull-wing leads and standard reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Power supply input | Accepts 3.3–26.5 V; includes internal protection against ISO 7637-2-2-11 automotive transients when used with 220 Ω series resistor |
| OUT1 | Digital output terminal | Open-drain output capable of sinking 11.4 mA at VDD > 6 V; requires external pull-up for logic-high assertion |
| GND | Reference ground | Common return path for supply and output; must be low-impedance to maintain noise immunity and thermal stability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar switching | Detects both north and south magnetic poles - eliminates need for magnet polarity alignment during assembly |
| Chopper stabilization + DSP | Reduces offset drift to < ±3% over temperature - maintains accuracy without calibration in wide-temperature environments |
| High-voltage operation | Rated for 26.5 V max supply - enables direct integration into 24 V industrial controls and 12/24 V automotive subsystems |
| Automotive transient immunity | Withstands ISO 7637-2-2-11 pulses on VDD and output pins - reduces need for external TVS or RC filtering |
| Low-noise magnetic sensing | 30 µT RMS noise at room temperature - supports reliable detection through plastic housings and air gaps up to 3 mm |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall effect switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Melexis US1881EUA-ABA-000-RE | Unipolar switch, 3.3–24 V supply, 3.5 mT BOP, push-pull output, TO-92 package | Lacks omnipolar detection and automotive transient immunity; suited for cost-sensitive consumer devices | Select when magnet polarity is fixed and board space permits through-hole mounting |

FAQ
What is the magnetic operate point specification for SI7205-B-00-IV?
The SI7205-B-00-IV has a maximum operate point (BOP) of 3.0 mT and a minimum release point (BRP) of 0.8 mT, measured at −40 to +125 °C. These values define the magnetic field thresholds at which the open-drain output switches state, with 0.6 mT hysteresis ensuring noise immunity. The SI7205-B-00-IV uses factory-programmed thresholds and does not support user adjustment.
Does SI7205-B-00-IV support unipolar or omnipolar magnetic field detection?
The SI7205-B-00-IV is configured as an omnipolar Hall-effect switch, meaning it responds to both north and south magnetic poles - triggering on either polarity exceeding the 3.0 mT BOP threshold. This eliminates magnet orientation constraints during mechanical assembly and improves reliability in dynamic field environments where pole direction may vary.
What is the recommended external circuitry for SI7205-B-00-IV's open-drain output?
The SI7205-B-00-IV open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor to the host system's logic rail (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V). A 4.7 kΩ resistor is typical for 3.3 V systems. For ISO 7637-2-2-11 transient protection on the output line, Silicon Labs recommends a 220 Ω series resistor and 0.1 µF local bypass capacitor to ground - identical to the VDD protection network.
Can SI7205-B-00-IV be used in automotive applications requiring ISO 7637-2 compliance?
Yes - the SI7205-B-00-IV is designed for automotive use with explicit support for ISO 7637-2-2-11 pulse testing on both VDD and OUT1 pins when implemented with a 220 Ω current-limiting resistor. Its 8 kV HBM ESD rating and 26.5 V absolute maximum supply further validate suitability for 12 V/24 V vehicle subsystems including HVAC, seat controls, and throttle position feedback.
Is SI7205-B-00-IV pin-compatible with other Si720x family members in SOT23-3 package?
Yes - all Si720x parts in SOT23-3 (including SI7201, SI7202, SI7205, SI7206) share identical pinout: Pin 1 = VDD, Pin 2 = OUT1, Pin 3 = GND. However, electrical behavior differs: SI7205-B-00-IV is a high-voltage omnipolar switch with open-drain output, while SI7201-B-00-FV is a low-voltage omnipolar switch with push-pull output - direct substitution requires verification of supply voltage and load interface.
