In the News
NVE is highlighted in a recent article in Elektronik International titled, “Bye-Bye Optocoupler.”

An excerpt: “Optocouplers are no longer fast enough for today’s data technology. So what are the alternatives?” (spoiler alert: they’re made by NVE).

NEW! 3-Volt Nanopower TMR
Magnetic Switches
 
Our second family of revolutionary Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) magnetic switches are the three-volt ADT-Series. They are nanopower, high speed, and ultraminiature.

Battery Operation
ADT-Series sensors operate from 2.4 to 4.2 volts, which is ideal for lithium or lithium-ion batteries and 3.3-volt supplies.

Ultralow Power
TMR technology provides ultralow power. Typical quiescent supply current is just 0.6 µA, even with no duty cycling. That’s less than the self-discharge rate of typical lithium-ion batteries, making the new sensors ideal for battery applications such as utility meters or portable instruments.

High Speed
Continuous operation without duty cycling means the sensors are fast, and can switch at more than 20 kHz.

Sensitive
Magnetic operate points are as low as 1.5 mT (15 Oe).

Configured as Switches
Outputs are configured as magnetic “switches,” turning on when a magnetic field is applied and off when the field is removed. The field can be either polarity, and the magnetic operate point is extremely stable over supply voltage and temperature.

Ultraminiature
ADT sensors are in a 1.1 mm x 1.1 mm x 0.35 mm (0.043 x
0.043 inch) ULLGA package.

Key Specifications
  • 2.4 to 4.2 V operation for lithium or lithium-ion power
  • 0.6 µA quiescent current
  • 20 kHz switching speed
  • Ultraminiature 1.1 x 1.1 mm x 0.35 mm package

In Stock
Two ADT-Series part types are available now, with two more available soon:

Demonstration Board

AG040T
The AG040T Demonstration Board has an ADT923-14E sensor and an LED to show the sensor output. It is is powered by a three-volt lithium coin cell (included). The sensor’s low quiescent power allows the battery to last at least several years with occasional LED use. A miniature bar magnet is included to activate the sensor. The board is just 1.57 by 0.25 inches (40 x 6 mm).

Bye-Bye Optocoupler
A full-length article highlighting NVE’s GMR and TMR isolators titled “Bye-Bye Optocouplers?” was published in the October issue of Elektronik International. The article was written by Wolf-Dieter Roth of NVE distributor Hy-Line.

An excerpt, “...GMR technology can also be used in magnetic sensors and data couplers, such as the US company NVE under the brand name ‘IsoLoop.’”
