Revolutionary Hall switches obsolete Reed switches for level sensing
The MLX92362 is a revolutionary potential-free switch: Based on Hall effect and silicon on an Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) technology, it only needs current to drive a load directly. Tiny, contactless and programmable IC delivers failure-free assembly of solutions for liquid level measurement.
The MLX92362 is a monolithic sensor IC sensitive to normal or lateral magnetic field. It has two output pins, OUTA and OUTB, which are connected to an electrically isolated switch.
Mounting safety
Is a revolutionary Hall switch providing better assembly yield and reliability in fluid level measurements.With Its isolated floating output, the MLX92362 only requires power to directly drive the load.
Develope
Can be programmed to act as magnetic latch or unipolar switch or omnipolar switch. Note that a series of ICs can be connected in a single module, and synchronized via the same 3-wire interface thanks to the built-in daisy-chain function.
Application
Can be programmed to output direct or inverted signal from one of the two sensitive axes – X(Y) or Z. The signal available on the output pins is the result of a comparison between the applied magnetic field and the pre-programmed magnetic thresholds BOP and BRP for the selected sensitive axis.
