Product details
Overview
MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic position sensor IC that detects orthogonal and parallel magnetic flux components (BX, BY, BZ) to compute absolute angular or linear position with 12-bit resolution and ±1° total accuracy over −40°C to 150°C. It delivers ratiometric analog or programmable PWM output, supports multi-point linearization (4-pt or 17-pt), and operates from 4.5–5.5 V supply. Used in automotive throttle and steering wheel position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its SOIC-8 package, Triaxis® 3-axis Hall architecture, programmable transfer function, thermal accuracy of ±1° over full temperature range, and support for end-user calibration via PTC-04 programmer without dedicated pins.
Technical Context
The MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE integrates three orthogonal Hall plates feeding a 15-bit ADC, followed by a 16-bit RISC DSP core running firmware that computes magnetic angle α = ∠(V₁, k·V₂) using CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion. Its front-end employs chopper-stabilized amplifiers and 2-phase spinning for offset cancellation.
Signal processing includes programmable FIR/hysteresis filtering, configurable analog output (ratiometric, rail-to-rail, push-pull) or digital PWM (100–1000 Hz, selectable polarity), and EEPROM-stored calibration data with Hamming ECC. All programming occurs via VDD and OUT pins-no dedicated programming interface required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V automotive and industrial rails; no external regulator needed. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive applications including throttle and pedal sensors. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit DAC (analog) / 10-bit thermal accuracy - enables precise position reporting with <0.025% VDD step size in analog mode. |
| Angular Accuracy | ±1° total error (INL + thermal drift + hysteresis) - meets ASIL-B functional safety requirements for non-redundant position feedback. |
| Magnetic Sensitivity | ±20 mT to ±80 mT full-scale range - supports common NdFeB magnets at air gaps up to 4 mm with robust signal-to-noise ratio. |
| Output Options | Ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz, programmable duty cycle) - drop-in replacement for potentiometers or legacy Hall sensors. |
| Calibration Flexibility | 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear transfer function - allows correction of mechanical nonlinearity (e.g., cam profiles, lever arms) without hardware changes. |
Pinout & Package
MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE uses RoHS-compliant SOIC-8 package (5.3 mm × 6.2 mm × 1.75 mm), optimized for surface-mount assembly and high-volume automotive production.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Power supply input | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; internal LDO and ESD protection; decoupling capacitor required per layout guidelines. |
| GND | Ground reference | Analog/digital common return; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into Hall front-end. |
| OUT | Programmable output | Configurable as ratiometric analog voltage or PWM signal; also used for bidirectional programming communication. |
| NC | No connect | Pins 3 and 6 are unconnected die pads; Melexis recommends tying both to GND for optimal EMC performance. |
| VREF | Reference voltage output | Internal 2.5 V reference; used for diagnostics and optional external monitoring; not required for basic operation. |
| NC | No connect | Pin 8 is unused; tie to GND per datasheet section 4 for EMC compliance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3-axis Hall sensing | Simultaneous BX/BY/BZ measurement enables single-chip absolute angle computation without external magnets or complex assemblies. |
| End-user programmable transfer function | 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear calibration stored in EEPROM allows field-level tuning to mechanical tolerances without re-spinning PCBs. |
| Self-contained signal chain | Integrated ADC (15-bit), DSP (2.5 MIPS @ 10 MHz), DAC (12-bit), and output driver eliminate need for external microcontroller or signal conditioning. |
| Non-contact position sensing | Replaces wear-prone potentiometers in pedals, throttles, and suspension systems-enabling >100 million cycle lifetime and IP67-rated housing compatibility. |
| Diagnostic-ready architecture | Built-in fixed-level and PWM diagnostic reporting, HAMHOLE fault detection, and lockable EEPROM support ISO 26262 ASIL-B system integration. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90363EDC-DCD-000-RE | Same SOIC-8 package and Triaxis® architecture but with enhanced EMC immunity (IEC 61000-4-4 Level 4) and extended diagnostic coverage including short-circuit detection on OUT pin. | Preferred for new designs targeting ASIL-C or requiring higher electromagnetic robustness in noisy powertrain environments. | Select MLX90363EDC-DCD-000-RE when system-level EMC testing reveals marginal margin with MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE. |
| TLE5012BEE1000XUMA1 | Infineon's 3D Hall sensor offers 14-bit resolution and integrated SENT output, but requires external MCU for configuration and lacks on-chip 17-pt linearization capability. | Suitable for SENT-based architectures where analog/PWM interface is unavailable; demands additional firmware development for calibration. | Choose TLE5012BEE1000XUMA1 only if existing platform mandates SENT protocol and design resources exist for host-side calibration management. |
Compared with MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE, the MLX90363 variant adds certified EMC hardening and expanded diagnostics without changing pinout or calibration workflow, while the TLE5012B shifts responsibility for transfer function definition to the host MCU-increasing software overhead and validation scope.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE?
The MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE is rated for continuous operation from −40°C to +150°C, making it suitable for under-hood automotive applications such as throttle bodies and transmission shifters. This range is validated per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 and confirmed in the Rev. 009 datasheet Section 5 (Absolute Maximum Ratings) and Section 7 (Electrical Specification).
Does the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE require external programming hardware?
Yes-the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE must be programmed using the Melexis PTC-04 programming unit with the MLX90360 daughterboard and配套 software tools. Programming occurs via VDD and OUT pins; no dedicated interface is needed. The MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE supports end-user calibration of transfer function, output mode, and diagnostics without modifying hardware.
Can the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE output both analog and PWM simultaneously?
No-the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE supports only one output mode at a time: either ratiometric analog voltage or digital PWM signal. The output mode is selected during programming via the Output Mode parameter (Section 14.1 of the datasheet). Switching between modes requires reprogramming the device using the PTC-04 tool.
What is the accuracy specification of the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE over temperature?
The MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE achieves ±1° total angular error over −40°C to +150°C, including contributions from INL, thermal drift, hysteresis, and repeatability. This value is specified in Section 10 (Accuracy Specification) of the Rev. 009 datasheet and reflects worst-case performance across all production units under defined test conditions.
Is the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE pin-compatible with other devices in the MLX9036x family?
Yes-the MLX90360EDC-ACD-000-RE shares identical SOIC-8 pinout and footprint with MLX90363EDC-DCD-000-RE and MLX90364EDC-DAD-000-RE.
