Description

The Honeywell SS460S utilizes a Hall-effect integrated circuit to provide a digital output that latches in the presence of a specific magnetic field polarity. Its bipolar latching functionality ensures a reliable switch state is maintained until an opposite pole is presented, making it ideal for precise rotational speed and position sensing.

Engineered without chopper stabilization, the sensor delivers a clean, jitter-free output signal, critical for noise-sensitive applications. The device features built-in reverse voltage protection and is housed in a durable, RoHS-compliant TO-92 package suitable for through-hole mounting on PCBs in demanding industrial, automotive, and medical environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the Honeywell SS460S sensor?

The SS460S Hall effect sensor operates from a wide DC voltage range of 3V to 24V. This makes it directly compatible with common logic levels (3.3V, 5V) and standard industrial power rails (12V, 24V) without requiring an additional voltage regulator.

How does the bipolar latching feature work on this sensor?

This sensor is a bipolar latching type, meaning it is activated specifically by a South magnetic pole and will latch its output state (e.g., switch ON). It will maintain this state until a North pole of sufficient strength is presented, which will switch the output OFF. This provides precise, state-holding position detection.

What is the output type and how do I interface it with a microcontroller?

The SS460S provides a digital open-collector output. To interface with a microcontroller like an Arduino, connect the output pin to a digital input through a pull-up resistor (typically 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ) to the microcontroller's logic voltage (3.3V or 5V). The output will pull low when a South magnetic field is detected.
