Product details
Overview
MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU from Melexis is an absolute rotary position sensor IC based on Triaxis® Hall technology, operating over −40°C to +150°C, delivering 12-bit angular resolution and supporting SENT (SAE-J2716), analog ratiometric, or PWM output modes. It decodes full 360° rotation from coplanar magnetic flux using integrated magneto-concentrator (IMC) architecture and is designed for under-the-hood automotive applications such as throttle and EGR actuators.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its SOIC-8 package, SENT protocol compliance, programmable 16-point transfer characteristic, thermal accuracy of ±10° over temperature, and dual-die redundancy option in TSSOP-16.
Technical Context
The MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU integrates two orthogonal Hall plate pairs with an on-die IMC to sense magnetic flux parallel to the IC surface, enabling true 360° absolute angle measurement via arctangent computation (VY/VX). Its DSP block executes firmware-based angular calculation using a look-up table-not CoRDiC-ensuring intrinsic compensation against airgap and thermal flux variations.
It supports three configurable output protocols: SENT (SAE-J2716) with rolling counter and diagnostic nibbles, ratiometric analog (12-bit DAC), or PWM (12-bit depth, 100–1000 Hz). Programmable parameters include clamping thresholds, deadzone, hysteresis, filter settings (FIR/IIR), and 16-point linearization, all stored in 128 B EEPROM with Hamming ECC.

Applications
| Throttle Position Sensing | EGR Valve Actuation |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Real-time angular feedback of throttle blade position in gasoline/diesel engines under high-temperature, vibration-prone conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute rotary position sensor providing SENT-encoded angle data to engine control unit (ECU) every 330–1000 μs. Use Value: Enables closed-loop air-fuel ratio control with ±10° thermal accuracy across −40°C to +150°C, eliminating potentiometer wear and recalibration needs. | Use Scenario: Monitoring exhaust gas recirculation valve rotation in diesel aftertreatment systems exposed to under-hood heat soak. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability angular transducer delivering ratiometric analog output synchronized to ECU PWM timing windows. Use Value: Maintains <1% ratiometry error and 12-bit resolution despite thermal cycling, supporting precise NOx reduction and OBD-II compliance. |
| Non-Contacting Potentiometer | Steering Angle Sensor Backup |
Use Scenario: Replacement of legacy conductive potentiometers in industrial valve positioners requiring >10M cycle lifetime and IP67 sealing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Contactless angular encoder interfacing via PWM output to PLC analog input modules with 1 kHz update rate. Use Value: Eliminates mechanical wear and wiper noise; programmable 3-point linearization compensates for gear backlash and magnet placement tolerances. | Use Scenario: Redundant angular feedback channel in steer-by-wire systems where primary sensor failure triggers safety fallback mode. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary rotary position sensor with SENT output and independent EEPROM-stored calibration, isolated from main sensor domain. Use Value: Provides fail-operational capability with diagnostic coverage exceeding ASIL-B requirements via broken-track and supply monitoring. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90316LDC-ABA-000-TU | Lacks SENT protocol; supports only analog/PWM; lower max temp (125°C); no 16-point LNR | Suitable for cost-sensitive non-automotive industrial encoders where SENT is not mandated | Select when SENT compliance and extended temperature range are not required |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit resolution; SPI interface only; no built-in IMC-requires external concentrator; 125°C max ambient | Fits space-constrained PCBs but demands additional magnetics design and host processor SPI resources | Choose for higher resolution where SENT is unavailable and thermal range ≤125°C suffices |
Compared with MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU, the MLX90316 offers reduced feature set and temperature rating, while the AS5055A provides higher resolution but lacks integrated magnetics and SENT support-making MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU the only option combining full 360° SENT output, 150°C operation, and on-die IMC in SOIC-8.

FAQ
What output protocols does the MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU support?
The MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU supports three user-selectable output protocols: SENT (SAE-J2716 Level A), ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD), and PWM (100–1000 Hz, 12-bit depth). Configuration is performed via EEPROM programming using the Melexis PTC-04 programmer and MLX90316/90324 daughterboard. The SENT mode delivers 12-bit angle data plus diagnostics in a 4-nibble telegram with CRC, making it ideal for automotive ECU integration.
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU?
The MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU operates from −40°C to +150°C, validated per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 requirements. This extended range is enabled by Melexis' high-temperature CMOS process and on-die thermal compensation algorithms, ensuring ±10° angular accuracy across the full span. The device maintains functionality during under-hood thermal soak events and cold-start conditions without derating or external heatsinking.
How is angular accuracy maintained over temperature in the MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU?
MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU achieves ±10° thermal accuracy through dual-stage compensation: front-end offset/sensitivity drift correction (±60 LSB15) and DAC/output stage drift mitigation (±0.4% VDD). Its arctangent computation (VY/VX) intrinsically rejects common-mode flux variations caused by airgap shift or magnet aging. These mechanisms are implemented in firmware and calibrated at wafer test, eliminating need for system-level temperature compensation.
Can the MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU be programmed in-system?
Yes, the MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU supports in-system programming via its supply (VDD) and output (OUT) pins-no dedicated programming pins required. All parameters-including output mode, 16-point transfer curve, clamping thresholds, and diagnostic settings-are written using the Melexis PTC-04 programmer and MLX90316/90324 software tools. Programming occurs at engineering lab or production line level and stores data in 128 B EEPROM with Hamming ECC for bit-error resilience.
What package type and pin count does the MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU use?
The MLX90324LDC-DBO-000-TU uses an SOIC-8 package (Package Code DC), measuring 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm with 1.27 mm lead pitch. It contains eight leads: VDD, Test 0, Switch Out, Not Used, Out, Test 1, VDIG, and VSS. Unused and test pins must be tied to VSS per Melexis datasheet Section 4 to ensure optimal EMC performance and avoid floating node issues.
