Product details
Overview
MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic position sensor IC that measures absolute rotary or linear position via orthogonal and parallel magnetic flux components (BX, BY, BZ) with 12-bit resolution and ±1° angular accuracy over −40°C to +150°C. It delivers programmable ratiometric analog or 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 MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its SOIC-8 package, Triaxis® Hall architecture, thermal accuracy of ±1° over full temperature range, programmable transfer characteristic, and dual-die redundancy option for safety-critical systems.
Technical Context
The MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP integrates three-axis Hall sensing, 15-bit ADC, and a 16-bit RISC DSP running at 10 MHz (2.5 MIPS) to compute magnetic angle α = ∠(V₁, k·V₂) using CoRDiC-based coordinate rotation. Its front-end employs chopper-stabilized amplifiers and 2-phase spinning for offset cancellation.
Signal processing includes programmable FIR/hysteresis filtering, end-user configurable output mode (analog ratiometric or PWM), and EEPROM-stored calibration parameters with Hamming ECC. Output transfer is defined by up to 17 equidistant points or 4 arbitrary points with clamping, enabling precise matching to mechanical stroke profiles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90363LDC-ABD-000-SP | Same SOIC-8 package and Triaxis® architecture but with enhanced ESD rating (±8 kV HBM) and extended diagnostic coverage including magnetic field monitoring | Better suited for high-EMI environments like hybrid powertrain control where field integrity verification is critical | Select when ASIL-C diagnostics or higher robustness against electrostatic discharge is required |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit resolution, SPI interface only (no analog/PWM), requires external MCU for processing; smaller QFN-16 package (4×4 mm) | Targets space-constrained consumer or industrial encoders where digital bus integration outweighs analog simplicity | Select when board area is constrained and system already includes a host processor for sensor fusion |
Compared with MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP, MLX90363 offers stronger built-in diagnostics and ESD immunity for demanding automotive subsystems, while AS5055A trades analog/PWM flexibility and integrated DSP for smaller size and higher resolution - requiring external firmware development for position decoding.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP?
The MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP is rated for −40°C to +150°C, making it suitable for under-hood automotive applications such as throttle bodies and transmission shifters. This Grade 0 temperature range is confirmed in the ordering code suffix 'L' and validated per AEC-Q100 stress testing. The device maintains ±1° angular accuracy across this full range due to its intrinsic flux-density self-compensation architecture.
Does the MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP support both analog and PWM outputs?
Yes, the MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP supports both programmable ratiometric analog output (0–VDD, rail-to-rail push-pull) and digital PWM output (100–1000 Hz, configurable polarity and latch). Output mode is selected via EEPROM-programmable parameter 'OUTMODE'; no hardware change is needed to switch between modes. Both outputs retain full 12-bit resolution and are calibrated independently.
How is the MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP programmed for custom transfer characteristics?
The MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP is programmed using the Melexis PTC-04 programmer with MLX90360 daughterboard and配套 software. Calibration parameters - including 4-point or 17-point linearization tables, clamping levels, zero-degree point, and clockwise/counter-clockwise direction - are written via VP, VDD, and OUT pins. No dedicated programming interface is required, enabling in-system calibration during final test or field reconfiguration.
What package type does the MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP use, and are all pins functional?
The MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP uses an 8-pin SOIC-8 package (3.9 mm × 4.9 mm). Only three pins are active: VDD, GND, and OUT. Pins 3 and 6 are unused NC terminals and must be tied to GND per datasheet Section 4 for EMC compliance; pins 7 and 8 are not bonded. This minimal pin count simplifies layout while maintaining robust performance.
Is the MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP qualified for automotive safety standards?
Yes, the MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-SP meets AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualification and includes built-in self-diagnostics for open/short circuit detection, supply monitoring, and magnetic saturation alerts. While not ASIL-certified out-of-box, its diagnostic coverage and failure mode reporting support integration into ASIL-B systems per ISO 26262 when combined with appropriate system-level fault handling - confirmed in Melexis Application Note AN-1025.
