DRV5032: DRV5032 replace

Part Number: DRV5032

Dear Sir,

May I use DRV5032DUDBZR to replace APX8132(SOT23-3).

Please you kindly review & provide suggestion.

Thanks!
Steven

  • Steven,

    Do you need the device to be sensitive to either pole of a magnet? If so, then you cannot use the DU version of DRV5032, as it is only available as a unipolar device:

    If you are only planning to use this device in a single direction, then you should be able to do this. If you DO need the omnipolar functionality of the device, then I would recommend looking at the FA version of the device, which is still push pull, and is also omnipolar. One thing you need to be careful of here, though, is the differences in the operating points. The operating points of the APX8132 differ for both the North and South Poles (Bop maximums: 4mT for south pole, 2mT for north pole; Brp minimums: 5mT for south pole, 3.5mT for north pole). Here is the same information for the DRV5032FA:
