Product details
Overview
MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP from Melexis is an absolute rotary position sensor IC using Triaxis® Hall technology with integrated magneto-concentrator (IMC), delivering 12-bit angular resolution, programmable 0–360° range, and ratiometric analog/PWM/serial output modes. It operates from −40 °C to +125 °C in SOIC-8 package and is used in automotive throttle, pedal, and steering wheel position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include angular thermal accuracy (±10 bit), programmable transfer characteristic, dual-die redundancy option, and SPI-compatible serial protocol support for calibration and diagnostics.
Technical Context
The MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP implements a monolithic Triaxis® architecture that senses the horizontal magnetic field components (VX, VY) via on-die IMC, enabling contactless end-of-shaft magnet detection. Its embedded 16-bit RISC DSP performs real-time arctangent computation and digital signal conditioning.
It supports three configurable output modes-ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD), PWM (100–1000 Hz), or 14-bit SPI serial-with programmable linearity, clamping, deadzone, and thermal drift compensation. Output stage includes diagnostics such as broken VSS/VDD detection and watchdog timeout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Angular Resolution | 12-bit (0.0879°/LSB theoretical), enabling precise shaft angle quantization |
| Thermal Angular Accuracy | 10-bit over −40 °C to +125 °C, limiting worst-case error to ±0.35° |
| Output Modes | Ratiometric analog, PWM (100–1000 Hz), or 14-bit SPI serial - selectable per application interface needs |
| Programmable Range | 0–360° full revolution, with user-defined discontinuity point and clockwise/counter-clockwise direction |
| Magnetic Sensitivity | Operates at 20–70 mT flux density; IMC saturation begins above 70 mT, affecting linearity |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; supports reverse voltage protection to −10 V and overvoltage up to +20 V |
| Diagnostics | Includes broken supply rail detection, watchdog timer (5 ms), and configurable diagnostic bands |
Pinout & Package
MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP is housed in a RoHS-compliant SOIC-8 package with 1.27 mm pitch and standard JEDEC outline. Pin 1 is VDD, Pin 8 is VSS, and all unused/test pins must be tied to ground for EMC compliance.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Main power supply input (4.5–5.5 V); powers internal regulator and logic |
| 2 | Test 0 | Factory test pin; must be connected to ground in final design |
| 3 | Switch OUT | Programmable open-drain switch output with hysteresis; usable as fault indicator or limit switch |
| 4 | Not Used / OUT2 | No connection in standard version; reserved for dual-die variants only |
| 5 | OUT | Main analog/PWM output; ratiometric to VDD or PWM duty cycle proportional to angle |
| 6 | Test 1 | Factory test pin; must be connected to ground in final design |
| 7 | VDIG | Digital supply pin for internal logic; decoupling required near pin |
| 8 | VSS | Analog/digital ground reference; low-impedance return path critical for noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® IMC Sensing | Enables robust contactless angular measurement with immunity to airgap and off-axis mechanical tolerances |
| End-of-Line Programmability | Full transfer function tuning (offset, gain, clamping, linearity, filtering) via PTC-04 programmer using only VDD/VSS/OUT pins |
| Multi-Mode Output | Single device supports analog, PWM, or SPI outputs - eliminates need for external signal conditioning or protocol translation |
| On-Chip Diagnostic Engine | Real-time monitoring of supply rails, magnetic field integrity, and internal logic state with configurable alert outputs |
| 14-bit Serial Protocol | 3-wire SPI interface delivers high-resolution angle data (0.022°/LSB) and device ID (40-bit) without additional ADC or timing circuitry |
Applications
| Steering Wheel Position Sensing | Pedal Position Sensing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Detect absolute angular position of vehicle steering column for EPS control and ADAS lane-keeping feedback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute rotary position sensor providing real-time, fail-safe angle data with diagnostic coverage.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute rotary position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90363KGO-ABD-000-SP | TSSOP-16 dual-die package with full hardware redundancy; higher current draw (2× IDD); supports SPI75AGC mode | Required for ASIL-D systems needing fault-tolerant dual-channel operation | Select when functional safety certification (ISO 26262) mandates hardware redundancy and independent die isolation |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit resolution, SPI-only output, no analog/PWM; lower max operating temp (−40 °C to +125 °C same), no built-in IMC | Lacks integrated magneto-concentrator; requires external flux concentration or stronger magnets | Choose for cost-sensitive, SPI-native designs where external magnetic optimization is feasible and analog/PWM outputs are unnecessary |
Compared with MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP, the MLX90363 offers certified redundancy but increases board area and power; the AS5055A provides higher resolution but demands external magnetic design effort and lacks analog/PWM flexibility - making MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP optimal for single-die, multi-interface, thermally robust automotive position sensing.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP?
The MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP is rated for operation from −40 °C to +125 °C, matching the 'K' temperature suffix in its ordering code. This range is validated across all electrical, magnetic, and accuracy specifications in the official datasheet, including thermal offset drift and sensitivity mismatch performance. The SOIC-8 package and internal trimming ensure stability within this envelope without derating.
Does the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP support SPI communication?
Yes, the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP supports a 3-wire SPI serial protocol (MOSI/MISO/SCLK) delivering 14-bit angular data and 40-bit device ID. It uses dedicated pins (Pin 5 = MOSI/MISO, Pin 3 = /SS, Pin 4 = SCLK in TSSOP-16; SOIC-8 requires pin remapping per configuration). The SPI mode is enabled via factory programming and confirmed in the 'BCG-000' option code documentation.
How is the angular range programmed on the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP?
The angular range of the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP is programmed during end-of-line calibration using the Melexis PTC-04 programmer via the VDD/VSS/OUT pins. Parameters such as CLOCKWISE, DP (discontinuity point), and LNR_A/B/C coordinates are written to EEPROM to define 0–360° mapping, direction, and linearization breakpoints - no hardware changes required.
What output types does the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP provide?
The MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP provides three mutually exclusive output types: ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD), PWM signal (100–1000 Hz), or 14-bit SPI serial data. Selection is configured via EEPROM programming - not hardware pin strapping - allowing field-upgradable behavior without PCB redesign.
Is the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP pin-compatible with other MLX90316 variants?
No - the MLX90316EDC-BCG-000-SP (SOIC-8) has a different pinout than TSSOP-16 variants like MLX90316KGO-ABD-000-SP. While both share functional equivalence in sensing and processing, SOIC-8 omits redundant pins (e.g., second VDD/VSS, dual SPI lines) and maps OUT/Switch OUT to different pins. PCB layout must match the SOIC-8 footprint and pin assignment in Section 4 of the datasheet.
