Product details
Overview
MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP from Melexis is a Triaxis® Hall-effect absolute position sensor IC in SOIC-8 package, delivering 12-bit analog output with 90° pre-programmed transfer function (80%VDD/90°), ±0.5° angular accuracy over -40°C to +85°C, and integrated DSP-based magnetic angle computation from Bx, By, Bz vector components. It enables non-contact rotary sensing in automotive throttle and industrial valve position feedback.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its ratiometric analog output linearity, programmable clamping/offset/gain, thermal accuracy (10-bit effective), SOIC-8 footprint compatibility, and Triaxis® 3D magnetic field decoding capability for robust position sensing without mechanical wear.
Technical Context
The MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP implements a fully differential analog front-end with chopper-stabilized amplification and 2-phase Hall plate spinning for offset cancellation, followed by a 15-bit ADC feeding a 16-bit RISC microcontroller running firmware-based CoRDiC angular computation. Its DSP extracts magnetic angle α = arctan(Bj/Bi) from two orthogonal flux components.
It supports user-programmable transfer characteristics via EEPROM with Hamming ECC, including 4-point linear or 17-point piecewise-linear calibration across 65°–360° ranges, and delivers output via a 12-bit DAC buffer (ratiometric analog) or 12-bit PWM - though MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP is factory-configured exclusively for 90° analog mode with fixed 80%VDD span.

Pinout & Package
MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP uses an 8-pin SOIC package with exposed pad (not electrically connected). Unused and test pins (Pins 2, 3, 4, 6) must be tied to ground per EMC guidelines. Pin 7 (VDIG) provides internal 3.3 V regulator output for external circuitry.

|---|---|---|
| 1 (VDD) | Main supply input | 4.5–24 V DC power rail; includes reverse-voltage protection (-12 V absolute max) |
| 2 (Test Input) | Factory test node | No user function; tie to GND for EMC compliance |
| 3 (Test) | Factory test node | No user function; tie to GND for EMC compliance |
| 4 (Not Used) | Unassigned | Internally unconnected; tie to GND for EMC compliance |
| 5 (OUT) | Analog output | Ratiometric voltage output (0.1–0.9×VDD) representing 0–90° position |
| 6 (Test1) | Factory test node | No user function; tie to GND for EMC compliance |
| 7 (VDIG) | 3.3 V regulator output | Stable 3.3 V supply (10 mA max) for external logic or interface circuits |
| 8 (VSS) | Ground reference | Primary return path for VDD, OUT, and VDIG; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90363KDC-AAA-000-SP | Same SOIC-8 package but with 360° pre-programmed analog output and extended -40°C to +125°C rating | Requires redesign of signal conditioning for full-turn range; suited for steering angle or motor commutation | Select when full 360° range and higher temp grade are needed; not drop-in for 90° systems |
| AS5055A-DSOT | 12-bit SPI-output magnetic encoder in SOT-23-8; no integrated regulator or analog output | Requires external ADC, voltage reference, and microcontroller interface; lacks ratiometric analog simplicity | Select when digital interface and minimal footprint are prioritized over analog plug-and-play integration |
Compared with MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP, MLX90363KDC-AAA-000-SP offers wider angular range and higher temperature tolerance but requires system-level adaptation, while AS5055A-DSOT trades analog convenience for digital flexibility and smaller size - neither is pin-compatible nor functionally identical without hardware or firmware changes.

FAQ
What is the output voltage range of the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP?
The MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP provides a ratiometric analog output ranging from 0.1×VDD to 0.9×VDD, corresponding to 0°–90° mechanical rotation. At VDD = 5 V, this yields 0.5 V to 4.5 V; at VDD = 12 V, it yields 1.2 V to 10.8 V. The transfer function is factory-programmed and fixed - no user reprogramming is required or supported for this variant.
Does the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP require external programming to operate?
No, the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP is fully functional out-of-box. It ships pre-programmed with a 90° analog transfer characteristic (80%VDD span), calibrated offset/gain/clamping, and enabled self-diagnostics. No PTC-04 programmer, DLL tools, or EEPROM writes are needed - only VDD, VSS, and load on OUT are required for operation.
Can the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP be used in a 360° rotary application?
No - the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP is specifically configured for 0–90° absolute position sensing. For 360° applications, Melexis offers the MLX90340SDC-AAA-200-SP (360° pre-programmed) or MLX90363 series. Using MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP beyond 90° results in saturated output and loss of linearity.
What is the purpose of the VDIG pin on the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP?
The VDIG pin on the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP outputs a regulated 3.3 V supply derived from VDD, capable of sourcing up to 10 mA. It is intended to power external circuitry such as op-amps, ADC references, or microcontroller I/O - reducing external regulator count and improving noise isolation in analog signal chains.
How does the MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP achieve thermal accuracy better than conventional Hall sensors?
The MLX90340SDC-AAA-100-SP achieves 10-bit thermal accuracy by computing magnetic angle α = arctan(Bj/Bi) from two orthogonal flux components, making the result inherently independent of absolute flux magnitude. This Triaxis® architecture compensates for temperature-induced B-field drift and magnet demagnetization - unlike single-axis Hall sensors whose output scales directly with flux density.
