2.3.1.1.1 U1 Wake-Up Sensor Configuration

The primary function of the U1 switch is to keep the system in low power when the trigger is not pressed. This switch is always powered and enabled. U1 uses the OUT2 pin of the unipolar DRV5032DU X2SON package, so it only responds to a positive magnetic flux density. OUT2 is assured to be asserted low when the sensed magnetic flux density is greater than +3.9 mT and asserted high when the sensed magnetic flux density is less than +0.9 mT.

The OUT2 pin of U1 is connected to the GND pin of the U2 sensor so that the U2 Hall sensor is only powered when the wake-up sensor detects a positive magnetic flux density from pressing the trigger or if an external magnet causes a positive magnetic flux density reading that triggers U1 into asserting its output low. If no external magnetic field is applied or the trigger is not pressed, U2 is not powered, which reduces the current consumption compared to if U2 was always powered. One disadvantage of connecting the output of one switch to the GND of another switch is that it can increase the response time of the system by the sampling period + power-on time of one Hall sensor (≈ 50 ms in this case). Additionally, note that since the maximum output current supported by the DRV5032 is ±5 mA and the peak current consumption of the DRV5032 is 2.7 mA, do not connect the output of a Hall sensor to the GNDs of any other Hall sensors. Consequently, switches U3 and U4 do not have their ground connected to the OUT2 pin of U1.
