Product details
Overview
MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® contactless rotary position sensor IC delivering true 360° sine/cosine analog outputs for absolute angular measurement. 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 Ferrite magnet compatibility with X/Z magnetic axis and high-bandwidth (5V) operation.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE datasheet, MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE pinout, MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE application in motor control, or MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE equivalent for resolver replacement, this device provides ratiometric dual analog outputs, programmable sensitivity (60 mT full-scale range), and end-of-shaft/through-shaft flexibility in SOIC-8 packaging.
Technical Context
The MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology to simultaneously sense orthogonal and parallel magnetic flux components relative to the IC surface. Its dual-output architecture delivers synchronized COS and SIN signals derived from Bz and BX field components under X/Z axis configuration.
This variant uses Ferrite magnets (BAC prefix), is configured for high-bandwidth 5V operation (suffix -125 → BAx-125: 5V, high BW, X/Z axis, 60 mT range), and supports dynamic angle computation via external arctan(OUT2/OUT1) with <±1° total angular error when compensated.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Type | Dual ratiometric analog: OUT1 = COS, OUT2 = SIN, proportional to magnetic field components |
| Full-Scale Magnetic Range | 60 mT - enables accurate angular resolution with Ferrite magnets in high-temperature environments |
| Output Refresh Rate | 4 µs - supports real-time position tracking up to 25,000 RPM without interpolation delay |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V - high-bandwidth mode requires stable 5V rail; VDD3V3 pin must be left floating |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor control applications |
| Magnetic Axis | X/Z - OUT1 responds to Bx (COS), OUT2 to Bz (SIN); optimized for off-axis through-shaft configurations |
| Angular Accuracy | ±1° total error with dynamic compensation - enables field-oriented control (FOC) without external calibration hardware |
Pinout & Package
MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package (3.9 mm × 4.9 mm, 1.27 mm pitch) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Unused pins (NC) and TEST must be connected to ground for optimal EMC performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VSS | Supply Ground | Primary ground reference for analog and digital circuitry; connects to system GND plane |
| 2 NC | Not Connected | Internally unconnected; must be tied to GND per EMC guidelines |
| 3 TEST | Test Pin | Factory test interface; externally grounded to suppress noise and improve immunity |
| 4 NC | Not Connected | Internally unconnected; must be tied to GND per EMC guidelines |
| 5 OUT2 | Analog Output SIN | Sine output referenced to VDD; ratiometric, 0–100% VDD swing, ±40% VDD at full scale |
| 6 VDD5V | 5V Supply Input | Active power rail for high-bandwidth operation; VDD3V3 must remain floating |
| 7 VDD3V3 | 3.3V Supply Input | Unused in this variant; must be left floating to prevent supply contention |
| 8 OUT1 | Analog Output COS | Cosine output referenced to VDD; synchronized with OUT2, same ratiometric scaling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® Hall Sensing | Simultaneous orthogonal (Z) and in-plane (X) field detection enables true 3D magnetic vector resolution |
| Ratiometric Analog Outputs | Output voltages scale directly with VDD, eliminating supply voltage drift in downstream ADC conversion |
| Ferrite Magnet Optimization | BAC option code configures internal gain and temperature compensation specifically for cost-effective Ferrite magnets |
| X/Z Magnetic Axis | Enables robust through-shaft mounting with two-pole magnets while maintaining high signal-to-noise ratio |
| High-Bandwidth Mode | 5V-powered operation with 4 µs update period supports closed-loop FOC at >20 kHz electrical frequency |

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-125-RE | Uses NdFeB magnet instead of Ferrite; higher sensitivity (60 mT range retained), but different TCS (1100 ppm/°C vs. 2000 ppm/°C) | Better SNR in low-field conditions; less suitable for high-temp Ferrite-based designs where field strength degrades significantly | Select BAB-125 only if NdFeB magnet is used and thermal drift compensation aligns with system calibration strategy |
| MLX90380LGO-BAC-125-RE | TSSOP-16 dual-die redundant architecture vs. SOIC-8 single die; identical magnetic programming and electrical specs | Required for ASIL-D functional safety architectures needing hardware redundancy; occupies larger PCB area and higher cost | Choose LGO-BAC-125 only when ISO 26262 ASIL-D compliance mandates dual-channel fault detection |
Compared with MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE, the BAB-125 variant trades Ferrite compatibility for NdFeB-specific optimization, while the LGO-BAC-125 adds hardware redundancy at the expense of footprint and cost-neither offers pin compatibility or drop-in replacement capability.

FAQ
What is the magnetic axis configuration of MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE?
The MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE is factory-programmed for X/Z magnetic axis operation, meaning OUT1 (COS) responds to the Bx field component and OUT2 (SIN) to the Bz component. This configuration supports through-shaft mounting with two-pole magnets and is explicitly defined by the "-125" option code in the ordering part number.
Does MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE require external programming after soldering?
No, MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE is fully pre-programmed at wafer/test level for Ferrite magnet use, X/Z axis, 60 mT full-scale range, and high-bandwidth 5V operation. No post-soldering programming is needed; the device powers up ready for analog output acquisition.
Can MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE operate from a 3.3V supply?
No - the "-125" suffix indicates 5V high-bandwidth mode. For MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE, VDD5V must be powered with 4.5–5.5 V, and VDD3V3 must remain floating. Attempting to drive VDD3V3 will cause undefined behavior or damage due to internal supply contention.
What is the maximum rotational speed MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE supports?
MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE supports up to 25,000 RPM with <1.8° signal phase shift and 1.6 samples per degree at full speed. Its 4 µs output update period ensures minimal latency for real-time field-oriented control loops in high-speed motor applications.
How does the ratiometric output of MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE benefit system design?
The ratiometric output of MLX90380LDC-BAC-125-RE means both OUT1 and OUT2 scale linearly with VDD, so their ratio (used for arctan calculation) remains independent of supply voltage variation. This eliminates need for precision voltage references and simplifies ADC interface design in noisy automotive or industrial power environments.
