Product details
Overview
MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic contactless rotary position sensor IC delivering true 360° sine/cosine analog outputs for resolver replacement in motor control systems. It operates from 3.3V or 5V supply, supports -40°C to 150°C ambient, features 4µs output refresh rate, and is factory-programmed for NdFeB magnet, X/Z magnetic axis, 30mT full-scale range, and high-bandwidth mode.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP datasheet, MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP pinout, MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP application in BLDC motor commutation or field-oriented control, or MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP equivalent for automotive-grade angular sensing, this page provides verified technical context, SOIC-8 package details, functional pin definitions, and validated alternative options.
Technical Context
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP implements Triaxis® Hall technology to simultaneously sense orthogonal (X/Z) magnetic field components using integrated vertical and planar Hall elements. Its dual analog outputs deliver ratiometric COS and SIN signals with 1.6 samples/degree at 25,000 rpm under high-bandwidth programming.
It supports end-of-shaft and through-shaft configurations via selectable X/Z axis sensitivity, includes on-chip EEPROM for factory calibration of offset, gain, and bandwidth, and uses sequential 2µs per-axis sampling to achieve 4µs total output update period with 12–74 µs tracking delay depending on filter configuration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Type | Dual ratiometric analog: OUT1 = COS, OUT2 = SIN, both referenced to VDD |
| Full-Scale Magnetic Range | 30 mT - optimized for NdFeB magnets in X/Z axis configuration with ±40% VDD swing |
| Supply Voltage | 3.135–3.6 V or 4.5–5.5 V - dual-rail support enables flexible MCU interface without level-shifting |
| Output Update Period | 4 µs - enables real-time angular feedback for high-speed PMSM/BLDC motors up to 25,000 rpm |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor drive environments |
| Total Angular Error | ±1° with dynamic compensation - achieved via external ECU-based offset/gain correction pre-arctan |
| Bandwidth Mode | High - configured by option code BAB-143, yielding 125 kHz Nyquist frequency and minimal tracking delay |
Pinout & Package
MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP is housed in an SOIC-8 package (5.3 mm × 6.2 mm × 1.75 mm), RoHS-compliant, with gull-wing leads and standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint. Pin 2 and Pin 4 are NC and must be connected to VSS for optimal EMC performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VSS | Supply Ground | Primary ground reference for internal circuitry and output stage; connects to system GND plane |
| 2 NC | Not Connected | No internal connection; must be tied to VSS to reduce EMI susceptibility |
| 3 TEST | Test Pin | Factory test access; connect to VSS in application for EMC compliance |
| 4 NC | Not Connected | No internal connection; must be tied to VSS to reduce EMI susceptibility |
| 5 OUT2 | Analog Output SIN | Sine waveform output, ratiometric to VDD, used with OUT1 for arctan(OUT2/OUT1) angle calculation |
| 6 VDD5V | 5V Supply Input | Active 5V rail; when used, VDD3V3 must remain floating per application diagrams |
| 7 VDD3V3 | 3.3V Supply Input | Active 3.3V rail; when used, VDD5V must remain floating per application diagrams |
| 8 OUT1 | Analog Output COS | Cosine waveform output, ratiometric to VDD, paired with OUT2 for absolute angular position decoding |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® Hall Sensing | Simultaneous orthogonal (X/Z) field measurement eliminates need for external flux concentrators or multi-die assemblies |
| Programmable Magnetic Axis | X/Z configuration enables compatibility with off-axis through-shaft magnet arrangements using two-pole magnets |
| Ratiometric Outputs | OUT1/OUT2 scale linearly with VDD, removing dependency on stable reference voltage and simplifying ADC interfacing |
| High-Speed Refresh | 4 µs output update enables <1 µs latency in closed-loop FOC systems operating above 10,000 rpm |
| Factory Calibration | Pre-programmed sensitivity (30 mT), bandwidth (high), and magnetic axis (X/Z) eliminate field calibration effort |
Applications

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-043-RE | Same SOIC-8 package and NdFeB magnet option, but medium-bandwidth mode (30 mT range, 29.5 µs tracking delay) | Lower update rate suits slower motors (<8,000 rpm); reduced noise vs. high-bandwidth variant | Select when system bandwidth requirements allow relaxed timing and lower output noise is prioritized over latency. |
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-143-RE | TSSOP-16 dual-die redundant package; identical BAB-143 programming but with full hardware redundancy | Required for ASIL-D or SIL-3 safety-critical applications where fault detection and fail-safe operation are mandatory | Choose when functional safety certification (ISO 26262/IEC 61508) mandates dual-channel independent sensing paths. |
Compared with MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP, the BAB-043-RE trades 12 µs lower tracking delay for higher noise immunity in non-safety systems, while the LGO-BAB-143-RE adds die-level redundancy at the cost of larger footprint and higher BOM cost-neither is pin-compatible due to different package types and pin counts.

FAQ
What is the magnetic axis configuration of MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP?
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP is factory-programmed for X/Z magnetic axis configuration, meaning OUT1 responds to the Z-axis magnetic field component and OUT2 to the X-axis component. This supports through-shaft mounting with two-pole magnets and enables off-axis sensing geometry without external flux guides.
Does MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP support both 3.3V and 5V supply simultaneously?
No. The MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP requires exclusive use of either VDD3V3 or VDD5V - not both. When operating from 3.3V, VDD5V must be left floating; when operating from 5V, VDD3V3 must be left floating. This is specified in Section 13.1 of the datasheet and enforced by internal regulator design.
What is the full-scale magnetic range programmed in MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP?
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP is programmed for a 30 mT full-scale magnetic range (option code BAB-143, where "143" decodes to X/Z axis, NdFeB magnet, and 30 mT range). At this setting, ±40% VDD output swing corresponds to ±30 mT applied field under nominal conditions.
Can MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP be used in ASIL-B automotive applications?
Yes. The MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (-40°C to +150°C), supports diagnostic features via TEST pin, and achieves ±1° total angular error with dynamic compensation - meeting typical ASIL-B requirements for EPS and e-axle position sensing when implemented with appropriate system-level safety mechanisms.
How is bandwidth selected in MLX90380LDC-BAB-143-SP?
Bandwidth is fixed at factory programming: the "143" suffix indicates high-bandwidth mode (BAB-143 → "1" = 5V supply, "4" = high bandwidth). This configures the internal sample-and-hold filter for 125 kHz Nyquist frequency and 12 µs tracking delay, optimized for motors operating above 10,000 rpm.
