Hi Team,
I've some technical questions regarding the DRV425 magnetic sensor.
Questions regarding DRV425 sensor saturation:
- I understand that when the DRV425 is exposed to a magnetic field above 3.6mT it becomes saturated. I understand that when the DRV425 is saturated, it will output an offset voltage even in the absence of a magnetic field. Except for this offset voltage, does the response of the sensor is linear?
Is it true that the DRV425 response:
In normal state: Vout = k * magnetic field
In saturation state: Vout = k * magnetic field + saturation offset ?
- Is it possible to restore the normal state by a degaussing procedure? If yes, what procedure is recommended?
Thanks,
Shlomi
