 Nanopower 
Magnetic Sensor Evaluation Kit | 
 | 
 
 
 | 
 
 
  
The ridiculous low power of NVE's ADL-Series nanopower magnetic sensors is shown 
with an analog meter driven by an amplifier with a gain of 1000, providing a 100 
nanoamp scale. 
 
The self-contained demonstrator runs on a three-volt coin cell, with each of the 
three ADL sensor power rangesthe continuous duty ADL921; and the ADL021 
and ADL121, which are internally duty-cycled for power consumption in the nanowatts. 
 
In addition to ridiculously low power, ADL-Series sensors are the most sensitive 
and smallest sensors in their class, with magnetic operate points as low as 20 
Oersteds and parts that fit on the head of a pin. 
  
 
  
Key ADL-Series sensor features are: 
   Sensitive (as low as 20 Oersted) 
   Ultralow power (as low as 72 nW) 
   Ultraminiature 1.1 mm package 
  
ADL sensors and demonstrators are in 
stock for immediate delivery.

Non-Frightening 
Two-Wire Interfaces 
  
Two-wire sensor interfaces can be frightening, but NVE parts make them easy. 
 
With the sensor off, the two-wire interface circuit must draw a minimal residual 
current, typically about 1.5 mA. With the sensor on, the circuit has to provide 
enough current to drive a significant load such as a motor or solenoid. 
 
This reference 
circuit uses an NVE DC001-10 
regulator to wide operating latitude over the input voltage range: 
 
  
Two-Wire Reference Circuit 
  
The residual current is dominated by the regulators quiescent current, which 
is less than 1 mA and relatively constant over input voltage. A Zener diode 
can be used instead of a voltage regulator in many applications.
