Product details
Overview
MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic absolute position sensor IC with 3-axis Hall front-end, programmable ratiometric analog or PWM output, 12-bit resolution, ±0.5° angular accuracy over −40°C to +150°C, and TSSOP-16 dual-die redundant architecture for automotive pedal and steering angle sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its full-redundant TSSOP-16 package, programmable 4-point or 17-point linear transfer characteristic, on-chip DSP-based magnetic angle extraction, and AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualification per datasheet Rev. 009.
Technical Context
The MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU integrates three orthogonal Hall plates (BX, BY, BZ) feeding a 15-bit ADC and 16-bit RISC DSP core running at 10 MHz (2.5 MIPS), executing CoRDiC-based angular computation and real-time front-end compensation. Its dual-die TSSOP-16 implementation provides hardware-level redundancy for functional safety-critical systems.
Signal conditioning includes chopper-stabilized amplifiers, offset cancellation via 2-phase spinning, and configurable FIR/hysteresis filtering. Output is delivered either as a rail-to-rail ratiometric analog voltage (12-bit DAC) or programmable-frequency PWM with selectable polarity and latch control - both fully user-programmable via supply/output pins without dedicated programming interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +150°C (Grade L): Enables under-hood automotive use without external thermal derating. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit (analog) / 10-bit thermal accuracy: Delivers 0.024% VDD step size and stable linearity across temperature. |
| Angular Accuracy | ±0.5° typical total error (INL + thermal drift): Meets ASIL-B requirements for throttle/pedal position feedback. |
| Output Options | Ratiometric analog (rail-to-rail push-pull) or PWM (programmable 100–1000 Hz, polarity & latch controllable): Supports legacy potentiometer replacement and digital ECU interfaces. |
| Magnetic Sensing | Triaxis® 3D Hall (BX/BY/BZ): Enables absolute rotary (0–360°) or linear stroke sensing with single moving magnet - no gear or cam needed. |
| Package | TSSOP-16 dual-die: Provides hardware redundancy; pin-compatible with MLX90360LDC variants but electrically isolated die pair. |
| Programmability | EEPROM-stored 4-pt or 17-pt LNR transfer curve, clamping, zero-degree point, clockwise/CCW direction, ID numbers: Field-configurable without re-spinning PCB. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package (dual-die redundant architecture); RoHS compliant; 4.4 mm × 5.0 mm footprint; 1.2 mm height; exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Supply input (primary die) | 5.0 V ±10%; powers main sensor chain and analog output stage. |
| VDD2 | Supply input (redundant die) | Independent 5.0 V supply path; enables fault detection via supply monitoring. |
| GND | Ground reference (primary die) | Return path for VDD; must be low-impedance for EMC compliance. |
| GND2 | Ground reference (redundant die) | Isolated ground return for VDD2; supports differential diagnostics. |
| OUT | Main analog/PWM output | Push-pull ratiometric voltage or open-drain PWM signal; connects directly to ECU ADC or PWM input. |
| OUT2 | Redundant analog/PWM output | Electrically independent output channel; used for cross-checking or fail-safe voting logic. |
| NC (Pins 5, 6, 7, 12, 13, 14) | No-connect terminals | Must be tied to GND per datasheet Section 4 for optimal EMC performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Hall sensing | Simultaneous BX/BY/BZ measurement enables true absolute angle calculation without mechanical constraints - eliminates wiper wear and contact bounce of potentiometers. |
| Dual-die TSSOP-16 redundancy | Two independent sensor dies in one package support ISO 26262 ASIL-B/C system-level fault tolerance without doubling board area or connectors. |
| Programmable 17-point PWL transfer | Compensates for non-ideal magnetic field profiles (e.g., off-axis magnets, housing distortion) with <0.1% residual INL after calibration - no external lookup tables required. |
| On-chip self-diagnostic | Real-time monitoring of supply, temperature, EEPROM integrity, and magnetic saturation - reports faults via dedicated diagnostic pin or embedded PWM flags. |
| Single-wire programming | Configuration via VDD and OUT pins using Melexis PTC-04 programmer - eliminates need for JTAG/SWD headers or extra PCB traces. |
Applications
| Steering Wheel Position Sensing | Pedal Position Sensing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Real-time detection of driver steering input angle for EPS assist torque calculation and ADAS lane-keeping feedback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute angular position transducer reporting 0–360° continuously with <10 µs latency and ±0.5° accuracy across full temperature range. Use Value: Enables precise torque vectoring and stability control without mechanical linkage backlash or temperature-induced zero drift. |
Use Scenario: Monitoring accelerator or brake pedal displacement in EV/ICE powertrain control units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Redundant linear stroke sensor delivering two independent analog/PWM outputs synchronized to ECU sampling clock. Use Value: Supports ASIL-B compliance via cross-checked outputs; eliminates single-point failure in drive-by-wire actuation paths. |
| Throttle Valve Position | Ride Height Adjustment |
Use Scenario: Closed-loop control of engine air intake butterfly valve position in gasoline/diesel ECUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability absolute rotary sensor with programmable 4-point transfer curve matching OEM-specific throttle cam profile. Use Value: Replaces dual-potentiometer assemblies with single IC - reduces BOM count, calibration time, and long-term drift risk. |
Use Scenario: Active suspension systems measuring wheel hub vertical displacement relative to chassis for adaptive damping control. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Linear position transducer with 0–50 mm range, factory-programmed clamping to reject suspension travel extremes. Use Value: Maintains consistent ride height setpoint across payload and road conditions without recalibration or mechanical stops. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90363LGO-ACD-000-TU | Same TSSOP-16 dual-die package, but adds integrated EEPROM write-protection lock and enhanced diagnostic reporting (HAMHOLE flag). | Required where OEM mandates permanent configuration lockdown post-calibration or extended diagnostic coverage per ISO 26262 Part 10 Annex D. | Select MLX90363 if firmware write protection and expanded fault logging are mandatory; otherwise MLX90360LGO suffices for standard ASIL-B designs. |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | Single-die TSSOP-16, SPI interface only (no analog/PWM), 14-bit resolution, −40°C to +125°C (Grade K), no built-in redundancy. | Suitable for non-safety-critical industrial encoders or consumer robotics where cost and SPI integration outweigh redundancy needs. | Choose AS5055A only when SPI host interface exists and functional safety is not required; MLX90360LGO remains preferred for automotive ASIL-B. |
Compared with MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU, MLX90363LGO offers hardened configuration security but identical sensing performance, while AS5055A-BQFT trades redundancy and dual-output flexibility for lower cost and higher resolution in non-automotive contexts - neither is pin-compatible nor drop-in replaceable.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU?
The MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU is rated for −40°C to +150°C (Grade L), validated per AEC-Q100 stress testing. This range supports under-hood placement in modern ICE and hybrid powertrains. The specification applies to the full electrical performance envelope - including angular accuracy, output linearity, and response time - without derating. MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU maintains 12-bit resolution and ±0.5° accuracy across this entire span.
Does the MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU support both analog and PWM outputs simultaneously?
No - the MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU operates in either ratiometric analog mode or PWM mode, selected permanently during programming via the Output Mode parameter (0x03 = analog, 0x07 = PWM). Both outputs are available on separate pins (OUT and OUT2), but each channel mirrors the same selected format. MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU does not generate mixed-signal outputs; dual-format operation requires external multiplexing or two discrete ICs.
How is redundancy implemented in the MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU TSSOP-16 package?
The MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU contains two physically independent sensor dies in one TSSOP-16 package: one primary die (VDD/GND/OUT) and one redundant die (VDD2/GND2/OUT2), each with full Triaxis® front-end, ADC, DSP, and output stages. They share no active circuitry - only substrate and package - enabling true hardware-level fault isolation. MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU meets ISO 26262 requirements for dual-channel comparison architectures.
Can the MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU be programmed after soldering to the PCB?
Yes - MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU supports in-system programming via its VDD and OUT pins using the Melexis PTC-04 programmer and MLX90360 daughterboard. No dedicated programming header or test points are required. All parameters - including transfer curve, clamping, zero-degree point, and ID numbers - can be written or updated post-assembly. Programming does not require power cycling or special timing sequences.
What magnetic configurations are supported by the MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU?
The MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU supports both rotary (0–360°) and linear stroke sensing using a single diametrically or axially magnetized magnet. For rotary use, a ring or disc magnet centered above the IC's sensitive spot (defined in datasheet Section 19.5) is typical. For linear applications, a bar magnet moving parallel to the package edge achieves up to 50 mm stroke. MLX90360LGO-ACD-000-TU requires no back-biasing magnet or ferrous concentrators - its Triaxis® architecture inherently resolves 3D field vectors.
