7.3.1 Magnetic Flux Direction

The DRV5032 device is sensitive to the magnetic field component that is perpendicular to the top of the package (as shown in Figure 7-1).

DRV5032 Direction of SensitivityFigure 7-1 Direction of Sensitivity

The magnetic flux that travels from the bottom to the top of the package is considered positive in this data sheet. This condition exists when a south magnetic pole is near the top of the package. The magnetic flux that travels from the top to the bottom of the package results in negative millitesla values.
