Product details
Overview
MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE from Melexis is a Triaxis® resolver IC delivering true 360° contactless angular position sensing via dual ratiometric sine/cosine analog outputs, with 4 µs output refresh rate, 3.3 V/5 V dual-supply support, and operation from −40 °C to +150 °C for end-of-shaft or through-shaft motor rotor position feedback in BLDC and PMSM systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, TSSOP-16 pin mapping, magnetic axis (X/Z), NdFeB magnet compatibility, 30 mT full-scale range, and high-bandwidth programming mode - all confirmed for this exact variant.
Technical Context
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology with orthogonal and parallel magnetic field sensitivity, enabling precise angular computation from rotating permanent magnets. Its dual-die TSSOP-16 architecture delivers fully redundant sine/cosine outputs per die (OUT1_A/OUT2_A and OUT1_B/OUT2_B), supporting functional safety requirements.
This variant is factory-programmed for X/Z magnetic axis configuration, NdFeB magnet type, 30 mT full-scale magnetic range, and high-bandwidth mode (5 V supply, 4 µs update period). Output tracking delay is 12 µs, and sensitivity is calibrated to ~1.33 %VDD/mT for X-axis and half that (~0.66 %VDD/mT) for Z-axis per datasheet Section 12 footnote 12.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Refresh Rate | 4 µs - enables real-time rotor position tracking up to 25,000 rpm with 1.6 samples/degree resolution. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.135–3.6 V or 4.5–5.5 V - supports dual-rail MCU interfaces without level-shifting. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor control environments. |
| Full-Scale Magnetic Range | 30 mT - optimized for NdFeB magnets in compact end-of-shaft configurations with ±40% VDD output swing. |
| Magnetic Axis | X/Z - OUT1 measures BX, OUT2 measures BZ; enables off-axis through-shaft mounting with 50% BZ/BXY ratio. |
| Output Type | Ratiometric sine/cosine analog - maintains proportionality to VDD, simplifying ADC reference coupling and reducing supply noise sensitivity. |
| Bandwidth Mode | High bandwidth (BAx-023 suffix) - 12 µs tracking delay, Nyquist frequency 125 kHz, suitable for fast dynamic torque control loops. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package with dual-die redundancy: two independent sensor dies (Die A and Die B), each with dedicated ground, supply, test, and analog output pins - enabling ASIL-D capable fault detection architectures.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 9 | VSS_A / VSS_B | Separate ground returns per die - critical for noise isolation and fault discrimination in redundant systems. |
| 4, 11 | TEST_A / TEST_B | Factory test access; must be tied to GND for optimal EMC per datasheet Section 9.2. |
| 5, 13 | OUT2_B / OUT2_A | Sine output channels - used with ATAN(OUT2/OUT1) to compute absolute angle; ratiometric to respective VDD rail. |
| 6, 14 | VDD5V_B / VDD5V_A | 5 V supply inputs - for high-bandwidth mode; VDD3V3 pins must remain floating when using 5 V. |
| 7, 15 | VDD3V3_B / VDD3V3_A | 3.3 V supply inputs - unused in this variant; left floating per datasheet requirement for 5 V operation. |
| 8, 16 | OUT1_B / OUT1_A | Cosine output channels - paired with corresponding OUT2 for arctangent computation; matched gain/offset within die. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® Hall Sensing | Simultaneous orthogonal (Z) and in-plane (X/Y) field measurement - eliminates need for external flux concentrators in X/Z mode. |
| Programmable Magnetic Axis | X/Z configuration selected at factory - supports through-shaft mounting with single-pole magnet and minimal mechanical offset. |
| Dual-Die Redundancy | Independent signal chains (A and B) in one TSSOP-16 package - enables cross-checking and diagnostic coverage per ISO 26262. |
| High-Speed Analog Outputs | 4 µs update period with 12 µs tracking delay - meets timing constraints of field-oriented control (FOC) loops operating >10 kHz. |
| NdFeB Magnet Optimization | BAB-023 option code - calibrated sensitivity and temperature coefficient for neodymium magnets, ensuring <±1° total angular error with dynamic compensation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar resolver sensor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-RE | Same package and magnetic axis, but 60 mT full-scale range and medium-bandwidth mode (29.5 µs tracking delay). | Better suited for lower-speed, high-torque applications where extended magnetic range compensates for magnet misalignment. | Select when magnet air gap varies >±0.5 mm or when system bandwidth demand is <5 kHz. |
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-043-RE | Same 30 mT range and high-bandwidth mode, but configured for Z/Y magnetic axis instead of X/Z. | Optimized for off-axis through-shaft mounting with radial magnet orientation rather than axial. | Choose when mechanical layout requires magnet placement perpendicular to IC surface (Z/Y) versus parallel (X/Z). |
Compared with MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-RE and MLX90380LGO-BAB-043-RE, the MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE uniquely combines X/Z axis, 30 mT range, and 12 µs tracking delay - making it optimal for compact, high-dynamic-response end-of-shaft BLDC applications where magnet proximity and loop speed are critical.

FAQ
What is the magnetic axis configuration of MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE?
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE is factory-programmed for X/Z magnetic axis configuration, meaning OUT1 measures the X-component (BX) and OUT2 measures the Z-component (BZ) of the applied magnetic field. This enables through-shaft mounting with axial magnet orientation and supports sensitivity mismatch calibration per datasheet Section 8.2.
Does MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE support both 3.3 V and 5 V supply rails simultaneously?
No - MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE operates exclusively from a 5 V supply (VDD5V pins active), as indicated by its "023" option code (BAx-023 = 5 V, high bandwidth). The VDD3V3 pins must remain floating per datasheet Section 9.2 to avoid supply contention and ensure correct high-bandwidth timing behavior.
What is the full-scale magnetic range and sensitivity of MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE?
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE has a 30 mT full-scale magnetic range (BAB-023 suffix), with nominal sensitivity of ~1.33 %VDD/mT for the X-axis and ~0.66 %VDD/mT for the Z-axis (per datasheet footnote 12). This matches NdFeB magnet characteristics and ensures ±40% VDD output swing at full scale.
How does the dual-die TSSOP-16 package enhance functional safety in MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE?
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE integrates two independent sensor dies (Die A and Die B) in one TSSOP-16 package, each with separate power, ground, and analog outputs. This allows real-time cross-die comparison of sine/cosine signals to detect faults such as open-circuit, short-to-rail, or magnetic interference - satisfying ASIL-D diagnostic coverage requirements.
Can MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE be used with a SmCo magnet?
No - the "BAB" prefix in MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE explicitly denotes NdFeB magnet optimization (per Table 2). Using a SmCo magnet would cause significant sensitivity and temperature coefficient mismatch, degrading angular accuracy beyond datasheet specifications. For SmCo, select a BAA-xxx variant instead.
