Additional Details:
The A3240LLTTK-T typically operates from a supply voltage range of 3 V to 24 V. The output of the device switches low when a magnetic field of sufficient strength (BOP) is present and switches high when the magnetic field is removed (BRP). This hysteresis reduces the effects of noise on the output. It has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +150°C. The A3240LLTTK-T Hall-effect switch is designed with robust EMC and reverse battery protection capabilities.
