Product details
Overview
TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a low-power 3D magnetic sensor IC with integrated X/Y/Z Hall probes, I²C interface, and on-chip temperature sensing. It delivers 12-bit resolution per axis (±130 mT range), operates at 10 µA typical current (10 Hz update), supports configurable power modes including 7 nA shutdown, and is housed in a PG-TSOP-6-6-5 package. It enables precise angular and rotational position sensing in space-constrained, battery-powered control interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 datasheet, TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 pinout, TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 application, or TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 3-axis field linearity, I²C address configuration via ADDR pin, interrupt-driven wake-up capability, and industrial-grade operating range (−40°C to +125°C).
Technical Context
The TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 implements three spinning vertical Hall plates per axis with successive approximation ADCs and digital demodulation for high-accuracy 3D field measurement. Its power mode controller integrates a low-power oscillator, undervoltage detection, and fast oscillator switching to manage startup sequencing and dynamic mode transitions.
Measurement is performed sequentially across Bx, By, Bz channels, with optional temperature readout post-sensing. The I²C interface supports up to 1 Mbit/s, includes register-based configuration of update rate and power state, and provides an open-drain /INT output that asserts upon completion of each measurement cycle.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.8 V to 3.5 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion or 3.3 V logic rails without level-shifting |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C junction - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial motor control environments |
| Power Consumption | 10 µA typical at 10 Hz - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors |
| Magnetic Range | ±130 mT per axis (X/Y/Z) - sufficient for robust detection of neodymium magnets at >5 mm air gap |
| Data Resolution | 12-bit per axis - yields ~64 µT LSB for precise angle calculation in rotary encoders |
| I²C Speed | Up to 1 Mbit/s - supports real-time streaming in closed-loop motor position feedback |
| Interrupt Output | Open-drain /INT pin - directly wakes microcontrollers from deep sleep without external pull-up dependency |
Pinout & Package
TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 is packaged in PG-TSOP-6-6-5: a 2.1 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.95 mm surface-mount TSOP with gull-wing leads, optimized for automated reflow assembly and high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: SCL /INT | I²C clock input / interrupt output | Dual-function pin: drives I²C clock during communication; asserts low-active signal when measurement completes |
| 2: GND | Ground reference | Primary ground connection for analog and digital sections; decoupling capacitor must be placed adjacent |
| 3: GND | Ground reference | Second dedicated ground terminal - reduces internal impedance and improves noise immunity for Hall biasing |
| 4: VDD | Supply voltage input | Single 2.8–3.5 V rail powers entire IC; requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling |
| 5: GND | Ground reference | Third ground pin - enhances thermal dissipation and stabilizes sensitive Hall plate biasing |
| 6: SDA ADDR | I²C data I/O / address select | Open-drain bidirectional data line; pulled high or low at power-up to set I²C address (0x5E or 0x5F) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3-axis Hall sensing with sequential ADC | Enables simultaneous vector reconstruction from time-multiplexed Bx/By/Bz samples without cross-axis interference |
| Configurable update rate (1 Hz to 1 kHz) | Allows dynamic trade-off between power consumption and responsiveness in adaptive UI controls |
| Integrated temperature sensor | Provides on-chip thermal compensation source - eliminates need for external thermistor in plausibility checks |
| Power-down mode (7 nA) | Permits ultra-low-leakage standby in always-on systems such as smart meter tamper detection |
| Address-selectable I²C ID | Supports dual-sensor configurations on same bus using hardware pin strapping - no software address remapping required |

FAQ
What is the default I²C address after power-up?
The TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 samples the voltage on the SDA/ADDR pin at power-on reset: a logic low sets the I²C address to 0x5E, while a logic high sets it to 0x5F. No external pull-up or pull-down is required-firmware must configure the correct address before first communication.
Does the temperature sensor require separate calibration?
No. The on-chip temperature sensor is factory-trimmed and delivers calibrated 12-bit readings over the full −40°C to +125°C range. Its output is accessible via dedicated I²C registers and can be used directly for thermal compensation or plausibility checks without user calibration.
Can the /INT pin be used without enabling the I²C interface?
Yes. The /INT pin asserts automatically upon completion of each measurement cycle regardless of I²C activity. It functions independently as a hardware wake-up signal, allowing the host MCU to remain in deep sleep until new data is ready-no I²C transaction needed to trigger the interrupt.
How does the sensor handle magnetic crosstalk between axes?
The TLV493DB1B6HTSA1 uses spinning vertical Hall plates with sequential multiplexing and digital demodulation to suppress offset drift and inter-axis coupling. X/Y channel matching is factory trimmed to <1% gain mismatch, ensuring accurate angle calculation even under strong unidirectional fields up to ±130 mT.
