Product details
Overview
MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP from Melexis is an absolute rotary position sensor IC leveraging Triaxis® Hall technology with integrated magneto-concentrator (IMC), operating across −40°C to +150°C, delivering 12-bit angular resolution and supporting SENT (SAE-J2716), analog ratiometric, or PWM output modes for throttle and EGR actuator feedback in automotive under-the-hood systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its TSSOP-16 dual-die redundant architecture, programmable 16-point transfer characteristic, SENT protocol compliance, thermal accuracy of ±10° over temperature, and diagnostic features including broken-track detection and watchdog timing.
Technical Context
The MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP implements a dual-die TSSOP-16 configuration with full hardware redundancy, enabling functional safety compliance in ASIL-B applications. Its Triaxis® front-end captures orthogonal magnetic field components (BX/BY) via two planar Hall plate pairs and an IMC, feeding a 16-bit RISC DSP that computes angle using ATAN(VY/VX) via look-up table-not CORDIC-ensuring intrinsic compensation against airgap and flux density variation.
Digital output processing includes configurable FIR/IIR filtering, programmable hysteresis, and SENT telegram formatting with rolling counter and CRC. The device supports three speed modes (slow/medium/fast) with corresponding clock frequencies (5.5/10/16 MHz), sampling intervals (600/400/330 μs), and step response times (660 ms / 4 μs / 1200 μs), all selectable via EEPROM-programmable parameters without external pins.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90316KGO-ADB-000-SP | Single-die TSSOP-16; no inter-die isolation; max temp +125°C; lacks SENT protocol (analog/PWM only). | Suitable for non-safety-critical industrial encoders but not ASIL-B automotive systems requiring redundancy. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs functional safety requirements and SENT is unnecessary. |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit resolution; SPI interface only; no SENT or PWM; operates to +125°C; no dual-die redundancy. | Targets high-resolution industrial robotics; lacks automotive-grade diagnostics and under-hood thermal robustness. | Choose for SPI-based embedded controllers needing higher resolution but accepting lower temperature rating and no SENT support. |
Compared with MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP, the MLX90316 offers lower cost and simpler programming but sacrifices redundancy and SENT capability, while the AS5055A delivers finer resolution yet lacks automotive qualification, diagnostic depth, and high-temperature resilience - making MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP uniquely suited for ASIL-B throttle/EGR applications demanding both robustness and protocol flexibility.

FAQ
What output protocols does the MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP support?
The MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP supports three configurable output protocols: SENT (SAE-J2716) for deterministic digital communication, ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD), and PWM with programmable frequency (100–1000 Hz). All modes are selected via EEPROM programming; no external pins or mode resistors are required. SENT implementation includes rolling counter, CRC-4, and status flags compliant with Rev 2010 of the standard.
Is the MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP pin-compatible with other MLX903xx devices in TSSOP-16?
No - the MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP uses a dedicated dual-die TSSOP-16 pinout with separate VDD/VSS and output terminals for each die (pins 1/11, 2/10, 5/15), differing from single-die variants like MLX90316. Pin mapping is not interchangeable; PCB layout must follow Melexis datasheet Rev. 005, Section 20.5. Inter-die isolation and redundancy functionality require this specific assignment.
How is angular accuracy maintained across temperature for the MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP?
Angular accuracy is preserved via intrinsic ATAN(VY/VX) computation, which cancels common-mode flux variations due to airgap, temperature, or aging. Thermal offset drift is limited to ±60 LSB15 at DSP input, translating to <±0.3° error, while DAC/output stage drift contributes ±0.4% VDD. Combined, total thermal angular error remains ≤±10° over −40°C to +150°C, verified per MLX90324 Accuracy Specification Table (Rev. 005, Page 12).
Can the MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP be programmed in-system without dedicated hardware?
Yes - programming uses only VDD, GND, and output pins; no dedicated programming pins are required. Configuration is performed via Melexis PTC-04 programmer with MLX90316/90324 daughterboard and GUI software. Field updates are supported, and EEPROM includes Hamming ECC for reliable storage of calibration, transfer curve, and protocol settings - all retained over 100k write cycles and 15-year data retention.
What diagnostic functions are integrated into the MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP?
The MLX90324LGO-DBO-000-SP integrates six core diagnostics: broken VDD/VSS detection (via passive voltage thresholds), EEPROM ECC error reporting, watchdog timeout monitoring, magnetic saturation flag, IMC health check, and SENT message integrity (CRC and counter validation). Diagnostic status is reported via dedicated bits in SENT telegrams or analog/PWM output clamping bands - enabling ECU-level fault classification without additional monitoring circuitry.
