Melexis Technologies NV
Hall Effect Sensor Linear, Rotary Position External Magnet, Not Included Gull Wing
NRND

Overview

The MLX90365 is a monolithic Hall-effect sensor IC featuring Triaxis technology for absolute rotary and linear position sensing. It converts magnetic field components into a ratiometric analog or PWM output, providing 12-bit resolution for high-precision feedback in harsh environments.

Why Choose This Part

The Triaxis technology allows for simplified magnetic circuit design while maintaining 10-bit thermal accuracy across a wide -40 to 150 degrees Celsius range. It features extensive on-board diagnostics and over-voltage protection up to 24V, making it robust for automotive and heavy industrial electrical environments.

Applications

Throttle and Pedal Position
Non-contact sensing for automotive drive-by-wire systems requiring AEC-Q100 reliability.
EGR Valve Feedback
High-temperature linear position monitoring in engine management systems.
Industrial Valve Control
Providing precise rotary feedback for actuators and process control valves.
Steering Angle Sensing
Measuring absolute steering column rotation with programmable transfer characteristics.
