Device Types

Device emulation may be included in the simulation results by setting device parameters before clicking "Start Simulation". A pre-loaded set of devices available at www.ti.com/halleffect may be selected by first choosing a device family. If only magnetic data is needed, this may be left blank or set to "N/A". The following options are available:

For each family of sensors, the user will be required to select the device, sensitivity variant, and package option. While package options are shown for each sensor type, display of package shape and dimensions are not yet supported by this tool.

All devices will require the user to enter an operating supply voltage, and additional fields may be available depending on the sensor type. All fields shown with a grey background are fixed device parameters and are locked from being modified by the user.
