NEW! The World’s Most
Sensitive Magnetometer IC
  
NVE has broken the record for magnetometer sensitivity again with the new ALT021-10E Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) analog magnetometer. It has a remarkable sensitivity of 500 mV/V/mT. It can precisely measure fields from less than a microtesla to 250 microtesla.
 
ALT02x Transfer Function
 A unique
bipolar transfer function
Bipolar Output
The differential bridge outputs are bipolar, meaning positive for a positive field and negative for an opposite field polarity.
 
Specifications
  • High sensitivity (500 mV/V/mT typical)
  • Large signal (200 mV/V typical full-scale)
  • Flexible 0 to 10 V supply (no minimum)
  • 20 kiloohm device resistance for low power
  • ±0.25 mT linear range
  • High linearity (2% of full-scale)
  • Ultra-low output temperature coefficient (±0.1%/°C)
ALT02x Equivalent Circuit
A differential bridge
analog output
  • Up to 300 kHz bandwidth
  • –40 to 125 °C operating range
  • 2.5 x 2.5 mm DFN package

Applications
  • Proximity sensing
