Technical Specifications
The A1386LUA-T operates from a supply voltage of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. It features a quiescent voltage output that is approximately half of the supply voltage. The sensitivity of the sensor is specified in mV/Gauss. The output voltage changes linearly with the applied magnetic field strength. The UA package is a small, low-profile surface-mount package that allows for easy placement on printed circuit boards. The A1386LUA-T also incorporates temperature compensation circuitry to minimize the effects of temperature variations on the output signal.
This sensor finds extensive use in automotive systems, industrial automation, and consumer electronics. Its high accuracy and reliability make it a valuable component in applications where precise magnetic field sensing is essential.
