Product details
Overview
MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® resolver IC delivering true 360° contactless angular position sensing via dual ratiometric sine/cosine analog outputs, with 4 µs output refresh rate, -40°C to 150°C operating temperature, and factory-programmed NdFeB magnet sensitivity (60 mT full-scale range) in TSSOP-16 dual-die redundant configuration for automotive motor control.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin definitions, confirmed magnetic axis (X/Z), bandwidth (high), and real-world design implications for BLDC and PMSM field-oriented control systems.
Technical Context
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP implements Triaxis® Hall technology with orthogonal and parallel magnetic field sensing on a single die, enabling precise angular reconstruction from rotating permanent magnets without mechanical contact. Its dual-die TSSOP-16 architecture provides functional redundancy for ASIL-B/C applications.
This variant uses X/Z magnetic axis configuration with equal sensitivity, supports both 3.3 V and 5 V supply operation, and delivers high-bandwidth output (125 kHz Nyquist frequency) with 12 µs tracking delay - optimized for fast rotor position feedback in high-RPM motors up to 25,000 rpm.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Type | Dual ratiometric analog: OUT1 = COS, OUT2 = SIN, ±40% VDD swing at full scale |
| Refresh Rate | 4 µs per field component (2 µs per axis), enabling real-time position tracking at >25 kRPM |
| Magnetic Range | 60 mT full-scale (BAB-025 option code), calibrated for NdFeB magnets |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to 150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor environments |
| Supply Voltage | Supports dual-rail operation: VDD3V3 (3.135–3.6 V) and VDD5V (4.5–5.5 V), with rail-selectable biasing |
| Angular Accuracy | ±1° total error with dynamic compensation; ±15° uncorrected over full temperature range |
| Bandwidth Mode | High bandwidth (BAB-025 suffix), 125 kHz Nyquist frequency, 12 µs tracking delay |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package with dual-die fully redundant architecture; 16-pin surface-mount outline measuring 5.0 × 4.4 × 1.2 mm (JEDEC MO-153), RoHS-compliant, AEC-Q100 qualified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 9 | VSS_A / VSS_B | Separate ground returns for Die A and Die B - mandatory for EMC integrity and redundancy isolation |
| 4, 11 | TEST_A / TEST_B | Factory test access; must be tied to GND for optimal EMC in production systems |
| 5, 13 | OUT2_B / OUT2_A | Sine output channels for Die B and Die A - used for cross-checking or voting logic in safety-critical systems |
| 8, 16 | OUT1_B / OUT1_A | Cosine output channels for Die B and Die A - paired with respective OUT2 pins for independent angle computation |
| 6, 14 | VDD5V_B / VDD5V_A | 5 V supply inputs for each die - must be decoupled locally; VDD3V3 pins left floating in 5 V mode |
| 7, 15 | VDD3V3_B / VDD3V3_A | 3.3 V supply inputs for each die - used only in 3.3 V mode; VDD5V pins left floating in 3.3 V mode |
| 2, 3, 10, 12 | NC | No-connect pins - require GND connection per datasheet for EMC compliance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® Hall Sensing | Simultaneous orthogonal (Z) and in-plane (X/Y) field detection enables robust 3D position resolution without external concentrators |
| Select X/Z Magnetic Axis | Configured for end-of-shaft or through-shaft mounting with equal sensitivity on X and Z axes - eliminates need for mechanical reorientation |
| Programmable Sensitivity | 60 mT full-scale range (BAB-025) matched to NdFeB magnet strength - maximizes ADC utilization and SNR in 12-bit+ systems |
| Ratiometric Outputs | Output voltage scales directly with VDD - removes supply regulation dependency and simplifies signal conditioning |
| Dual-Die Redundancy | Independent Die A and Die B with separate power/ground/pins - supports fault detection, voting, and ASIL-B/C system-level compliance |
Applications
| Brushless DC Motor Control | Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-023-RE | Same TSSOP-16 dual-die package and X/Z axis, but 30 mT full-scale range for lower-strength NdFeB or tighter air-gap designs | Better suited for compact actuators with reduced magnet size or larger mechanical tolerances | Select when magnetic circuit flux density is constrained below 45 mT peak; retains identical pinout and programming interface |
| MLX90380LDC-BAB-025-RE | SOIC-8 single-die version with identical BAB-025 sensitivity and X/Z axis, but no hardware redundancy | Targeted at cost-sensitive non-safety applications where ASIL compliance is not required | Choose for space-constrained PCB layouts needing smaller footprint; shares same calibration and signal chain design |
Compared with MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP, the -023 variant trades magnetic range for improved low-field linearity, while the SOIC-8 -025 offers identical sensing performance without redundancy - enabling tiered design reuse across safety and non-safety platforms.

FAQ
What magnetic axis configuration does MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP use?
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP uses the X/Z magnetic axis configuration with equal sensitivity, as indicated by the "BAB-025" option code (BAx-x0x = X/Y, BAx-x1x = X/Z). This enables direct compatibility with both end-of-shaft and through-shaft magnet arrangements without mechanical adaptation, and is validated in Figures 7 and 12 of the datasheet.
How is the 60 mT full-scale range of MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP implemented?
The 60 mT full-scale range of MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP is factory-programmed via the "BAB-025" option code (xx5 = 60 mT), calibrated for NdFeB magnets. It defines the in-plane (X) or orthogonal (Z) flux density that produces ±40% VDD output swing at 25°C, ensuring optimal ADC input utilization and minimizing quantization error in 12-bit+ systems.
Does MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP support both 3.3 V and 5 V supply rails simultaneously?
No - MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP supports either 3.3 V or 5 V operation, not both simultaneously. The TSSOP-16 package provides separate VDD3V3_A/B and VDD5V_A/B pins; in 3.3 V mode, VDD5V pins must be left floating, and vice versa. This rail-selectable architecture avoids internal contention and ensures stable biasing per the Application Diagrams in Section 13.
What is the functional safety relevance of the dual-die TSSOP-16 package in MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP?
The dual-die TSSOP-16 package in MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP provides hardware-level redundancy: Die A and Die B operate independently with separate power, ground, and output pins. This enables cross-die comparison, fault detection, and voting logic - meeting ASIL-B/C requirements per ISO 26262 without requiring external monitoring circuitry.
Can MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP be programmed in-system after soldering?
Yes - MLX90380LGO-BAB-025-SP supports programming through the connector using the TEST pins (4 and 11) and supply rails, per Section 3 and Figure 3 of the datasheet. Factory programming covers sensitivity, axis, and bandwidth; in-system adjustment is limited to EEPROM-based calibration offsets and filter settings, not fundamental option-code parameters.
