Product details
Overview
MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic absolute position sensor IC that senses orthogonal and parallel magnetic flux components (BX, BY, BZ) to compute angular or linear displacement with 12-bit resolution, ratiometric analog output, and programmable transfer characteristics. It operates from −40°C to +150°C in SOIC-8 package and is used in automotive pedal, steering wheel, and throttle position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified technical context, calibrated accuracy specs, SOIC-8 terminal mapping, pre-programmed analog configuration, and real-world selection guidance for high-reliability non-contacting position sensing.
Technical Context
The MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE integrates three-axis Hall sensing, 15-bit ADC, 16-bit RISC DSP, and on-chip analog signal processing to extract magnetic angle α = ∠(B₁, k·B₂) with thermal self-compensation. Its front-end uses chopper-stabilized amplifiers and 2-phase spinning to cancel offset drift.
This variant is factory pre-programmed for analog output mode (ratiometric), fixed 0°–360° range, clockwise rotation, and clamped linear transfer characteristic - eliminating field programming requirements while maintaining full EEPROM configurability for end-user calibration of gain, offset, and clamping levels.

Pinout & Package
MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package (JEDEC MS-012AA). Unused pins (3 and 7) must be connected to ground per EMC recommendations.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Applications
| Automotive Pedal Position Sensing | Steering Wheel Angle Monitoring |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Detect accelerator/brake pedal rotation in electric and hybrid powertrains where contactless reliability is mandatory. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute rotary position sensor providing real-time analog voltage proportional to pedal angle with <±0.5° accuracy over −40°C to +150°C. Use Value: Eliminates potentiometer wear-out failure modes; ACD-200's pre-programmed analog output reduces calibration time and EOL test complexity. |
Use Scenario: Monitor steering column rotation for EPS assist control and ADAS lane-keeping feedback loops. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-accuracy absolute angle sensor delivering ratiometric output synchronized to vehicle CAN bus timing cycles. Use Value: Triaxis® architecture rejects stray fields from nearby motors; thermal self-compensation maintains accuracy across engine bay temperature swings. |
| Throttle Valve Position Feedback | Ride Height Control Sensing |
|
Use Scenario: Provide closed-loop position feedback for electronic throttle bodies in gasoline and flex-fuel engines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Non-contacting linear-to-rotary position transducer with programmable clamping to match OEM-defined voltage endpoints. Use Value: ACD-200's factory-set transfer curve ensures compliance with OEM voltage slope (e.g., 0.5 V/30°) without field programming tools. |
Use Scenario: Measure suspension travel in adaptive damping systems for luxury and commercial vehicles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute linear stroke sensor using off-axis magnet configuration to detect vertical displacement with sub-millimeter resolution. Use Value: SOIC-8 package withstands vibration and thermal cycling; 12-bit resolution enables precise ride height staging (e.g., Comfort/Sport/Off-Road). |
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-ACD-200-RE | Dual-die redundant architecture (TSSOP-16); higher ASIL-D readiness; 2× current consumption. | Required for safety-critical steering angle sensing where fault detection and redundancy are mandated. | Select when ISO 26262 ASIL-D compliance is required; not pin-compatible due to TSSOP-16 package and dual-die routing. |
| TAS57xx series (e.g., TAS5756M) | Audio amplifier IC with integrated position-sensing auxiliary ADC - no Triaxis® 3D Hall front-end or angle computation. | Limited to auxiliary linear sensing in infotainment actuators; cannot replace MLX90360 in primary position feedback loops. | Only suitable for secondary, non-safety-critical position monitoring where analog voltage readback suffices and angle computation is handled externally. |
Compared with MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE, the MLX90363 offers hardware redundancy at the cost of larger footprint and higher power, while the TAS57xx lacks native magnetic angle computation - making MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE the only solution delivering calibrated, thermally compensated absolute position in a single SOIC-8 device.

FAQ
What does the "ACD-200" suffix mean in MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE?
The ACD-200 suffix indicates factory pre-programming for analog output mode with default 0°–360° range, clockwise rotation direction, and clamped linear transfer characteristic. This eliminates the need for post-manufacture programming equipment like the PTC-04, enabling immediate integration into production systems. MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE retains full EEPROM reprogrammability for end-user calibration of gain, offset, and clamping values if required.
Is MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE pin-compatible with other MLX90360 variants in SOIC-8 package?
Yes, MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE shares identical SOIC-8 pinout and electrical interface with all DC-coded MLX90360 variants (e.g., MLX90360LDC-ACD-000-RE). Pin functions, supply requirements, and output drive capability are fully consistent across the SOIC-8 family. The only differences are factory-programmed parameters stored in EEPROM - no PCB layout changes are needed when substituting between ACD-000 and ACD-200 versions.
Does MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE support PWM output, or is it analog-only?
MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE is shipped with analog output mode enabled, but its underlying architecture fully supports PWM output. The Output Mode parameter remains reprogrammable via the VP pin and supply-rail protocol. To enable PWM, users must reconfigure the 0" #3 register using Melexis' PTC-04 programmer and MLX90360 software tools - no hardware change is required. The device retains full dual-mode capability despite ACD-200's analog-default setting.
How does the thermal accuracy of MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE compare to conventional Hall-effect sensors?
MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE achieves ±0.5° typical total angular error over −40°C to +150°C due to intrinsic thermal self-compensation in its angle computation algorithm (∠(B₁, k·B₂)), whereas conventional linear Hall sensors exhibit >±2° drift over the same range without external compensation. This is achieved by leveraging amplitude ratio rather than absolute B-field magnitude - making MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE significantly more stable in under-hood environments where magnet strength varies with temperature.
Can MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE be used for linear position sensing, or is it limited to rotary applications?
MLX90360LDC-ACD-200-RE supports both rotary and linear position sensing. Its Triaxis® architecture measures BX, BY, and BZ components, enabling absolute angle calculation from rotating magnets or linear stroke derivation from moving magnets in off-axis configurations (e.g., side-shaft or push-pull arrangements). Figure 2 in the datasheet explicitly shows linear application topology, and the 12-bit resolution supports sub-degree or sub-millimeter precision depending on mechanical design - confirmed for float-level and ride height use cases.
