Product details
Overview
MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE from Melexis is a factory-trimmed linear Hall-effect sensor IC in TSOT-3L package, operating from 3.3 V ±5%, delivering 20.625 mV/mT sensitivity with 0 ppm/°C magnet thermal drift compensation, and AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive position sensing in motor commutation and current measurement systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, ratiometric output behavior, TSOT-3L footprint compatibility, and validated alternatives for high-speed linear magnetic field sensing under -40°C to +150°C conditions.
Technical Context
The MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE integrates a Hall plate, chopper-stabilized amplifier, voltage regulator, and analog output driver in mixed-signal CMOS. Its ratiometric output (VOUT = VOQREL × VDD + S × B) ensures proportional response to both magnetic flux density (B) and supply voltage, with quiescent output fixed at 50% of VDD.
It features 900 kHz chopping frequency for offset cancellation, 40–70 µs power-on time, and no internal filtering (Z=0 option), enabling microsecond-scale step response-critical for real-time motor control and fast current sensing where phase delay must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V ±5% - matches standard low-voltage microcontroller I/O rails and enables direct interface without level-shifting. |
| Sensitivity | 20.625 mV/mT @ 3.3 V - delivers 6.25× higher signal per mT than baseline 3.3 mV/mT sensors, improving SNR in compact PCB layouts. |
| Thermal Drift Compensation | 0 ppm/°C - eliminates magnet-induced offset drift, essential for precision current sensing over temperature. |
| Output Type | Ratiometric analog voltage - output scales linearly with VDD, removing supply variation errors in ADC-based readout systems. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +150°C - supports under-hood automotive deployment and industrial motor drive environments. |
| Bandwidth | ≥25 kHz (TSOT-3L) - sufficient for 10 kRPM motor commutation (≈166 Hz electrical frequency) with <1° phase lag. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Grade 0 - qualified for automotive safety-critical subsystems including EPS and transmission control. |
Pinout & Package
MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE uses the RoHS-compliant TSOT-3L surface-mount package (3.0 × 2.6 × 0.9 mm), optimized for automated placement and high-density PCBs. The Hall sensing element is located 0.80 mm from package bottom, centered under the die area.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VDD) | Power supply input | Accepts 3.15–5.5 V; internal regulator supplies bias to Hall plate and analog core; requires ≥0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor adjacent to pin. |
| 2 (OUT) | Analog output | Push-pull ratiometric voltage output (0.25–3.05 V at 3.3 V supply); drives loads up to 1 mA into ≥5 kΩ; slew rate supports >25 kHz bandwidth. |
| 3 (GND) | Reference ground | Low-impedance return path for supply and output; must be connected directly to system ground plane to minimize noise coupling into Hall plate. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-programmed sensitivity | 20.625 mV/mT trimmed at 3.3 V - eliminates post-assembly calibration, reducing test time and BOM cost in volume production. |
| Zero-drift magnet compensation | 0 ppm/°C TCS - maintains linearity and offset stability across temperature without external compensation circuitry. |
| Fast power-on response | 40–70 µs wake-up - enables micro-power gating in battery-operated systems, minimizing idle current during sensor sleep cycles. |
| Chopper-stabilized architecture | 900 kHz chopping frequency - suppresses 1/f noise and nullifies thermal offset drift, ensuring <±1.5% linearity over full operating range. |
| AEC-Q100 qualification | Grade 0 (-40°C to +150°C) - meets automotive reliability requirements for mission-critical position feedback in steering and braking modules. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear Hall sensor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90290LSE-AAA-310-RE | 16.5 mV/mT sensitivity, same 0 ppm/°C TCS and TSOT-3L package | Lower output swing per mT reduces SNR margin in noisy environments but eases ADC full-scale alignment | Select when system-level sensitivity budget allows lower gain or when matching legacy calibration curves. |
| MLX90290LSE-AAA-332-RE | 33 mV/mT sensitivity, 2000 ppm/°C TCS for ferrite magnet compensation | Higher sensitivity improves resolution but requires magnet-specific thermal compensation; not drop-in for zero-drift use cases | Choose only when using temperature-sensitive ferrite magnets and full thermal drift correction is required. |
Compared with MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE, the -310-RE offers reduced sensitivity for improved ADC headroom, while the -332-RE trades zero-drift stability for higher gain and magnet-specific thermal compensation-making the -320-RE optimal for precision current sensing and closed-loop control where supply- and temperature-invariant linearity is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the supply voltage range for MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE?
The MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE operates from 3.15 V to 5.5 V, with nominal supply set at 3.3 V ±5%. It includes an internal voltage regulator, allowing stable operation across this range while maintaining ratiometric output behavior. At 3.3 V, the device draws 3–8 mA typical supply current, supporting low-power system designs without external regulation.
Does MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE require external filtering components?
No, MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE does not require external filtering because it is configured with Z=0 (0 ppm/°C TCS), which disables internal filtering. This yields microsecond-scale step response-ideal for fast current sensing and real-time motor control. A 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor between VDD and GND is mandatory, but RC networks on the output are optional and only recommended for EMI suppression in noisy environments.
How is the output voltage of MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE related to magnetic field and supply voltage?
The MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE output follows VOUT = 0.5 × VDD + S × B, where S = 20.625 mV/mT at 3.3 V. This ratiometric relationship means output scales linearly with both supply voltage and magnetic flux density. At zero field, output is precisely 50% of VDD; at ±50 mT, output spans ~0.25 V to ~3.05 V with 3.3 V supply-enabling direct interfacing with 3.3 V ADCs.
What is the significance of the '320' in MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE?
In MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE, '320' decodes as Y=2 (20.625 mV/mT sensitivity at 3.3 V) and Z=0 (0 ppm/°C magnet thermal drift coefficient). This combination targets applications demanding high sensitivity without magnet-induced gain drift-such as precision current sensing using AlNiCo or samarium-cobalt magnets where thermal stability is critical.
Is MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE pin-compatible with other variants in the MLX90290 family?
Yes, all MLX90290 variants-including MLX90290LSE-AAA-320-RE-share identical TSOT-3L pinout (VDD, OUT, GND) and mechanical footprint. No PCB layout changes are needed when substituting between sensitivity or TCS options within the SE package family, provided thermal and electrical design margins accommodate the new output swing and load requirements.
