Notes:

1.

ABL Series sensors have a purely ratiometric output. They will operate with input voltages of

0.1V or lower. The output signal will scale proportionally with the input voltage. Maximum

voltage will be limited by the power dissipation allowable in the package and user installation.

See the package section for more details.

2.

Linearity and Hysteresis measured across linear operating range, unipolar operation.

3.

Application of a magnetic field in excess of this value will saturate the GMR sensor elements,

and no further output will be obtained. No damage occurs to the sensor elements when

saturated; NVE GMR sensors will not be damaged by any large magnetic field.

4.

Percent change in resistance with application of 1 Oersted of magnetic field; corresponds to an

8% change in resistance with 200 Oersteds of applied magnetic field (1 Oersted = 1 Gauss in

air, or 0.1 milli-Tesla).
