Overview

The MLX90393 is a high-resolution 16-bit 3-axis Hall effect sensor utilizing Melexis Triaxis technology to measure magnetic flux density along the X, Y, and Z axes. Operating from 2.2V to 3.6V, this miniature sensor is designed for high-precision position sensing applications and features an integrated temperature sensor and programmable acquisition modes for power-efficient operation.

Why Choose This Part

The sensor offers exceptional flexibility with both I2C and SPI interfaces and on-the-fly programmable operating modes for micro-power performance. Its 16-bit resolution and integrated digital filtering allow for high-precision magnetic field measurements in a compact 3x3mm VFQFN package.

Applications

Human-Machine Interface (HMI)
Ideal for implementing 3D joysticks, rotary knobs with push-button functionality, and linear sliders in industrial or consumer control panels.
Robotic Position Sensing
Used in robotic joints and actuators to provide precise absolute position feedback without physical contact.
Low-Power IoT Sensing
Leverages programmable sleep times and a 43uA standby current for battery-operated remote monitoring systems.
Electronic Valve Control
Provides reliable non-contact displacement and rotation sensing for industrial valves and fluid control systems.

Getting Started

To begin development, interface the MLX90393 via SPI or I2C to a 3.3V microcontroller and configure the internal EEPROM for desired filter and gain settings. Developers can utilize the external interrupt pin (INT) to trigger host wake-ups only when significant magnetic field changes occur, optimizing system-wide power consumption.
