General description
The new IMC-Hall® current sensor MLX91205 is a single axis integrated magnetic sensor based on the Hall Effect. It produces an analog linear, ratio-metric output voltage proportional to the applied magnetic field parallel with the chip surface.
The circuit is fabricated using a standard CMOS process. The additional ferromagnetic layer (IMC-Hall® = Integrated Magnetic Concentrator, Triaxis® Technology) that is added in a simple post-processing step, amplifies the magnetic field and concentrates it on the Hall elements. Therefore, the circuit features very high magnetic sensitivity, low offset, and low noise.
