Single-axis linear Hall sensor with 20 kHz bandwidth
The DRV5053RAQLPGM is a single-axis linear Hall-effect sensor from Texas Instruments, delivering an analog voltage output proportional to the applied magnetic flux density. Its ±18 mT sensing range and 20 kHz bandwidth suit rotor position detection in brushless DC motors and current-sensing in power modules where the field varies at switching frequencies.
Supply and output parametrics for BOM planning
The analog output drives up to 2.3 mA, enough to feed a typical 10-bit ADC input directly through a 1 kΩ series resistor. Maximum supply current is 3.6 mA, so the sensor's contribution to the system power budget is under 140 mW at 38 V — negligible for most automotive modules. Temperature compensation is built in, meaning the output sensitivity stays stable across the operating range without external thermistor correction.
Through-hole package and sourcing posture
Housed in a TO-92-3 short-body through-hole package (supplier device package TO-92-3), the DRV5053RAQLPGM is breadboard-friendly and easy to hand-assemble for prototypes or low-volume production runs. For new designs the wide supply range and AEC-Q100 grade mean it qualifies directly into automotive and industrial BOMs without a qualification cycle.
