NVE Introduces the Worlds Most Sensitive Magnetometer IC
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.December 19, 2022Billed as the worlds most sensitive magnetometer integrated circuit, the new ALT021-10E analog magnetometer has a remarkable sensitivity of 0.5 millivolts per volt per microtesla. Based on NVEs unique ALT-Series Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) technology, the new part can precisely measure fields from less than a microtesla to 250 microtesla. Bipolar Output The differential bridge outputs are bipolar, meaning positive for a positive field and negative for an opposite field polarity. Best-in-Class Specifications Key ALT021-10E specifications include: High sensitivity (0.5 millivolts per volt per microtesla typical) Large signal (200 millivolts per volt typical full-scale) Flexible 0 to 14 volt supply (no minimum) 20 kiloohm device resistance for low power 250 microtesla linear range 40 to 125 degree Celsius operating range 2.5 by 2.5 millimeter DFN package Applications The ALT021-10E is idela for a number of low-field sensing applications, including motion, speed, and position control; non-contact current sensing; motion, speed, and position control; and mechatronics and robotics. Three Versions There are now three ALT-Series TMR magnetometer versions, the ALT025-10E, with a linear range of 0 to 10 millitesla; the ALT023-10E, with a linear range of 0 to 1 millitesla; and the new ALT021-10E with a with a linear range of 0 to 250 microtesla. Available Now The ALT021-10E, ALT023-10E, and ALT025-10E are all in stock for immediate delivery.
