MLX90316KDC-BCG-000-RE
Overview
The MLX90316 is a contactless rotary position sensor IC utilizing Melexis Triaxis Hall technology to detect the absolute angular position of a small magnet. It provides a ratiometric analog output proportional to the rotary position from 0 to 360 degrees, featuring a programmable transfer characteristic to suit specific mechanical configurations.
Why Choose This Part
This sensor features 12-bit angular resolution and 10-bit thermal accuracy across a wide -40 to 125 degree Celsius operating range. Its non-contact Hall effect design is immune to mechanical wear, and the Triaxis technology allows for simplified magnetic circuit designs compared to traditional single-axis sensors.
