Honeywell SS496A1 Ratiometric Hall Effect Sensor - TO-92 Package
The Honeywell SS496A1 is a ratiometric, board-mount Hall-effect sensor in a TO-92 package, designed for precise magnetic field sensing from -840 G to +840 G. It operates from a 3 Vdc supply, making it suitable for low-voltage applications and integration with microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and industrial PLCs.
Features
- Ratiometric output provides a voltage proportional to both supply voltage and magnetic field strength for improved accuracy.
- Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +150°C ensures stable performance in harsh environments.
- Low 3 Vdc operating voltage and 8.7 mA typical supply current promote energy efficiency.
- Compact TO-92 through-hole package enables automated placement and reduces assembly space.
- Operates with permanent magnets or electromagnets for versatile motion and position sensing.

The SS496A1 is a digital Hall-effect sensor IC from Honeywell that generates a ratiometric output voltage in response to an applied magnetic field. Its output is linearly proportional to the magnetic flux density, simplifying interface with analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in microcontrollers. The device is engineered for stable operation across an extensive industrial temperature range.
This sensor is ideal for applications requiring precise displacement or proximity detection, as its ratiometric nature minimizes errors from supply voltage variations. The through-hole TO-92 package provides a robust and easy-to-solder solution for prototyping and volume production in compact electronic assemblies.
