Abstract :
A completely scalable lumped-circuit model for horizontal Hall devices is presented therein that can be efficiently implemented in SPICE-like simulators. The model has been employed for the quantitative analysis of: a) geometrical, b) temperature, and c) fieId-dependent mobility effects, as well as for d) the dynamic response and e) the noise behavior of Hall sensors.
