ABLIC, a group company of MinebeaMitsumi Inc., has announced the launch of the S-5611A linear Hall effect IC for general-use devices. The applications of the IC include core current sensors, which help measure current flow; linear position detection, enabling position sensing in industrial and automation systems; and rotation detection, providing monitoring of rotational movement in motors, robotics, and other mechanical systems.
It is suitable for manufacturers of general-purpose inverters, including those used in renewable energy systems like solar and wind power generation. Additionally, it can be used in industrial machinery, DC-DC converters, and other systems where current measurement and efficiency are important. Companies focused on developing energy-efficient and environmentally friendly solutions, such as those in the clean energy sector, would find the linear Hall effect IC useful.
As the adoption of renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, continues to grow, there is an increased focus on improving energy efficiency to reduce environmental impact. General-purpose inverters in systems like solar power generation and industrial machinery require current sensors for better efficiency. Improving these sensors’ response speed and accuracy is key to optimizing inverter performance.
The linear Hall effect IC is a programmable IC that offers a response time of 1.25μs and low noise performance at 0.09μT/√Hz. This allows it to measure small current fluctuations, contributing to improved inverter control.
The IC features a frequency band selection function that allows users to choose between 400kHz, 200kHz, or 100kHz, reducing noise at lower frequencies. Additionally, it includes a function to compensate for magnetic core characteristic changes caused by temperature, ensuring accuracy across a wide temperature range.
These features help reduce power consumption and CO2 emissions, making the S-5611A suitable for current sensors used in inverters and DC-DC converters.
