Product details
Overview
MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE 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, 3.3 V/5 V dual-supply support, and operation from −40 °C to +150 °C. It uses NdFeB magnet compatibility (BAB), Z/Y magnetic axis configuration, 60 mT full-scale magnetic range, and high-bandwidth programming for motor control feedback in end-of-shaft or through-shaft configurations.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified functional identity, TSSOP-16 dual-die pin mapping, magnetic axis–specific output behavior, real-world angular error performance (±1° with dynamic compensation), and validated alternatives for redundant resolver designs.
Technical Context
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology with orthogonal and parallel flux sensitivity, enabling simultaneous measurement of two orthogonal magnetic field components (Bz and By) for precise angle computation. Its dual-die TSSOP-16 architecture provides full hardware redundancy-Die A and Die B each deliver independent SIN/COS outputs with separate supply and ground terminals.
Programmable magnetic axis (Z/Y), sensitivity (60 mT), and bandwidth (high) are factory-set per BAB-145 option code. Output tracking delay is 12 µs under high-bandwidth mode, and internal chopping at 1 MHz suppresses low-frequency noise while maintaining 125 kHz Nyquist frequency for fast rotor dynamics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Refresh Rate | 4 µs - Enables real-time angle tracking up to 25,000 rpm with ≤1.8° phase shift. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C - Qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor drive environments. |
| Magnetic Range | 60 mT - Factory-programmed full-scale range optimized for NdFeB magnets in Z/Y axis configuration. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V or 5 V - Dual-rail support; VDD3V3 and VDD5V pins must be used separately per application diagram. |
| Angular Accuracy | ±1° total error with dynamic compensation - Achieved via off-chip arctan(OUT2/OUT1) with offset/gain correction. |
| Output Type | Ratiometric sine/cosine - Output voltages scale with VDD (5–95% VDD), eliminating supply-induced gain error. |
| Bandwidth Mode | High - Tracking delay = 12 µs; supports fast transient response in field-oriented control loops. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package with dual-die fully redundant architecture: two independent sensor dies (A and B), each with dedicated power, ground, test, and analog output pins. Pin 1 (VSS_A) and Pin 9 (VSS_B) must be connected to system ground; unused NC pins should be grounded for EMC compliance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 9 | VSS_A / VSS_B | Separate ground returns for Die A and Die B-prevents crosstalk and enables fault-isolated operation. |
| 5, 13 | OUT2_B / OUT2_A | SIN outputs for Die B and Die A-paired with OUT1 pins to form redundant sine/cosine pairs. |
| 8, 16 | OUT1_B / OUT1_A | COS outputs for Die B and Die A-used with corresponding OUT2 pins for arctangent angle calculation. |
| 6, 14 | VDD5V_B / VDD5V_A | 5 V supply inputs-must float VDD3V3 when using 5 V mode per datasheet Section 9.2. |
| 7, 15 | VDD3V3_B / VDD3V3_A | 3.3 V supply inputs-must float VDD5V when using 3.3 V mode; not shared between dies. |
| 4, 11 | TEST_A / TEST_B | Factory test access-grounded for optimal EMC; not user-accessible in normal operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® Hall Sensing | Simultaneous orthogonal (Z) and in-plane (Y) flux detection enables robust angle resolution without mechanical alignment constraints. |
| Z/Y Magnetic Axis | Configured for through-shaft applications where magnet flux is oriented along Z and Y axes-supports multi-pole off-axis mounting. |
| Dual-Die Redundancy | Independent Die A and Die B provide fault-tolerant outputs-critical for ASIL-D motor control systems requiring diagnostic coverage. |
| Programmable Bandwidth | High-bandwidth mode (12 µs tracking delay) delivers sub-degree latency for closed-loop FOC at >10 kHz PWM frequencies. |
| NdFeB Magnet Optimization | BAB option code sets sensitivity and temperature coefficient specifically for neodymium magnets-reduces calibration overhead in production. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar resolver replacement applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-143-RE | Same TSSOP-16 dual-die package and Z/Y axis, but 30 mT magnetic range and medium bandwidth (29.5 µs tracking delay). | Suitable for lower-speed applications (<10,000 rpm) or systems with reduced magnetic field strength; lower sensitivity improves SNR in low-field setups. | Select when magnetic air gap is larger or magnet strength is marginal-avoids output saturation while retaining redundancy. |
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-140-RE | Identical package and Z/Y axis, but 40 mT magnetic range and low bandwidth (74 µs tracking delay); no high-speed chopping. | Optimized for cost-sensitive, non-safety-critical applications where latency <50 µs is acceptable and thermal stability dominates over speed. | Choose for legacy industrial drives where firmware does not require sub-20 µs loop timing-reduces EMI filtering complexity. |
Compared with MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE, the -143 variant trades bandwidth for improved low-field linearity, while the -140 variant sacrifices speed for simplified signal chain design-both retain identical pinout, redundancy structure, and Z/Y axis functionality for drop-in layout reuse.

FAQ
What is the magnetic axis configuration of MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE?
The MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE is factory-programmed for Z/Y magnetic axis operation, meaning OUT1 reports Bz (vertical flux) and OUT2 reports By (in-plane Y-axis flux). This configuration supports through-shaft mounting with multi-pole ring magnets and is explicitly defined by the BAB-145 option code per Melexis datasheet Table 2.
Does MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE support both 3.3 V and 5 V supply simultaneously?
No-MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE requires exclusive use of either VDD3V3 or VDD5V per die; both rails must not be powered concurrently. When using 5 V, VDD3V3 pins (7 and 15) must be left floating, and vice versa. This isolation is mandatory to prevent latch-up and ensure specified 5–95% VDD output swing.
How is redundancy implemented in MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE?
MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE integrates two fully independent sensor dies (Die A and Die B) in one TSSOP-16 package, each with dedicated VSS, VDD, TEST, and analog output pins. Outputs are electrically isolated-no shared circuitry-enabling true hardware redundancy for ASIL-D diagnostics and fail-operational operation.
What is the angular accuracy specification for MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE?
MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE achieves ±1° total angular error when dynamic compensation (offset, gain, and phase correction) is applied in the host ECU prior to arctan(OUT2/OUT1) computation. Without correction, total error is ±15° over −40 °C to +150 °C per datasheet Table 8.
Can MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE be used with ferrite magnets?
No-MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE is configured for NdFeB magnets only, as indicated by the "BAB" prefix in its option code. Ferrite-compatible variants use "BAC" (e.g., MLX90380LGO-BAC-145-RE); using this part with ferrite magnets results in significant sensitivity mismatch and degraded linearity.
