The SS345PT/SS445P sensors are small, versatile digital Hall-effect devices that are operated by the magnetic field from a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, designed to respond to a single North pole (SS345PT) or South pole (SS445P).
Subminiature package size (SS345PT) uses less space on the PCB than standard Hall-effect sensor packages such as TO-92 or SOT-89, allowing for use in smaller assemblies
Tape and reel packaging (SS345PT) allows for automated component placement, helping to reduce manufacturing costs
Small, flat TO-92-style package (SS445P) is also available
Simple activation from a North pole (SS345PT) or a South pole (SS445P) makes these products suitable in a variety of potential applications such as motion control, lid closure detection, and displacement sensing
Built-in pull-up resistor can easily interface with common electronic circuits without adding external components, helping to reduce total system cost
