Product details
Overview
MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® Hall-based resolver IC delivering true 360° absolute rotary position sensing via ratiometric sine/cosine analog outputs. It operates from 3.3V or 5V supply, supports -40°C to 150°C ambient, features 4 µs output refresh rate, and is factory-programmed for NdFeB magnet compatibility, X/Z magnetic axis configuration, and 60 mT full-scale magnetic range. It enables high-accuracy angular measurement in brushless motor rotor position feedback.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified technical context, SOIC-8 package details, real-world motor control use cases, and validated alternative options - all grounded in Melexis Revision 11 datasheet specifications.
Technical Context
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP implements Triaxis® technology to simultaneously sense orthogonal (X/Z) magnetic field components using integrated Hall elements and on-chip signal conditioning. Its dual analog outputs (OUT1 = COS, OUT2 = SIN) are ratiometric to VDD, with programmable bandwidth and factory-set sensitivity of 0.66 %VDD/mT for 60 mT range under NdFeB magnet excitation.
This variant uses the SOIC-8 package with dedicated VDD3V3 and VDD5V supply pins, enabling flexible power architecture. The X/Z axis configuration supports through-shaft mounting where magnetic flux is applied along Z (axial) and X (radial) directions, with sensitivity mismatch compensation enabled per datasheet Section 8.2.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute rotary position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90380LDC-BAB-025-SP | Same SOIC-8 package and NdFeB magnet option, but 30 mT full-scale range and 1.33 %VDD/mT sensitivity. | Better suited for lower-field magnets or tighter mechanical air gaps where 60 mT would saturate output. | Select when magnetic circuit yields <35 mT peak flux density at sensor location; retains identical pinout and programming interface. |
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-045-SP | TSSOP-16 dual-die redundant package; identical magnetic specs (NdFeB, X/Z, 60 mT) but with functional safety support. | Required for ASIL-D or ISO 26262-compliant systems needing hardware redundancy and diagnostic coverage. | Choose when functional safety certification is mandatory; requires PCB layout change due to 16-pin TSSOP footprint. |
Compared with MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP, the -025 variant offers higher sensitivity for low-field operation while maintaining drop-in compatibility, whereas the LGO-BAB-045 provides hardware redundancy at the cost of larger footprint and higher BOM cost - both preserve identical magnetic axis and NdFeB optimization.

FAQ
What is the magnetic axis configuration of MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP?
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP is factory-programmed for X/Z magnetic axis configuration, meaning OUT1 responds to the X-axis (radial) field component and OUT2 to the Z-axis (axial) component. This supports through-shaft mounting with two-pole magnets, and sensitivity mismatch is compensated per datasheet Section 8.2.
Which magnet type is MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP optimized for?
MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP is optimized for NdFeB (Neodymium Iron Boron) magnets, as indicated by the "BAB" option code. Its sensitivity of 0.66 %VDD/mT and 60 mT full-scale range are calibrated for the flux density profile and temperature coefficient of NdFeB materials.
Can MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP operate from both 3.3V and 5V supplies?
Yes, MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP supports dual-supply operation via separate VDD3V3 and VDD5V pins. Only one supply should be active at a time: when using 3.3V, VDD5V must be left floating; when using 5V, VDD3V3 must be left floating, per datasheet Sections 9.1 and 13.1.
What is the output update timing behavior of MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP?
MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP delivers synchronized sine and cosine outputs every 4 µs (250 kSPS). Each field component is sampled sequentially, resulting in a total tracking delay of ≤74 µs in high-bandwidth mode - critical for fast-response motor control loops.
Is MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, MLX90380LDC-BAB-045-SP is AEC-Q100 qualified for Grade 0 (-40°C to +150°C), with documented ESD ratings of 2 kV HBM (SOIC-8) and compliance to automotive reliability stress tests - confirmed in datasheet Table 6 and Section 15.
