1 Overview The HALL-HINGE-EVM is composed of various 3D printed structures which combine to assist with evaluation of lid closure detection. The sensor and magnet positions are independently adjustable to demonstrate the flexibility of Hall-effect sensors in this function type.
Final assembly of the 3D printed structures will be required to complete EVM setup. This may be done with either HALL-HINGE-EVM or with HALL-ADAPATER-EVM. The following steps walk through the procedure to evaluate TMAG5231 with the HALL-HINGE-EVM. If desired, the 3D assembly may be downloaded, edited and reprinted as needed from SLYU062.zip.

Operation Figure 3-6. B222 - N42 Cube Magnet 1. Locate the HALL-HINGE-EVM PCBs. TMAG5231 may be evaluated on this PCB with or without the use of the 3D structures. The device may be powered by connecting a voltage source or battery as indicated in Figure 3-7.
Schematics, PCB Layout, and Bill of Materials Figure 3-16. Protractor Angle Alignment 7. Apply 3.3 V to Vcc (accepts 1.65V - 5.5 V) to power Hall-Hinge-EVM. 8. Adjust the arm position and observe the output LED. The LED will illuminate when device output is activated by a magnetic field.
