This standard specifies the methods and procedures for characterizing the performance characteristics of planar-Hall magnetic field sensors. The scope includes the evaluation of (i) Field dependence, encompassing sensitivity, linearity, full-scale range, hysteresis, and temperature dependence of sensitivity; (ii) Zero-field response, including offset, long-term offset stability, offset temperature dependence, noise, and noise temperature dependence; (iii) Bandwidth, defining the frequency range over which sensor performance is quantified; (iv) Dynamic range, establishing the operational limits between the minimum detectable field and the maximum field within specified error bounds. This standard applies to planar-Hall effect based magnetic sensors and helps to ensure consistent testing methodologies for comparative analysis. In addition, this standard supports applications in medical diagnostics such as magnetoencephalography, magnetic bead detector, magnetocardiography, magnetomyography, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), and sensor networks for 3D flow reconstruction in thermal convection in industrial environments.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
