Melexis Triaxis Linear & Rotary Position Sensor Gen.III
ASIL-C | SENT/PWM | Multipoint characteristic | Temperature -40...+160°C (Automotive)
Melexis Triaxis 3D Linear & Rotary Position Sensor MLX90372 Gen.III
Immune to stray fields | ASIL-C | optionally with SENT or PWM output | +160°C
ASIL-C capable, absolute measuring linear and rotary position sensor with Melexis
Triaxis technology and IMC-disk (Integrated Magnetic Concentrator) based on the
Hall effect. Suitable for non-contact linear and rotary position sensing as well
as 1/2 joysticks or travel levers.
Depending on the version, the sensors are immune to stray fields
(Stray Field Immune) or behave like Triaxis sensors of the previous generation
(Standard/Legacy).
The standard/legacy versions are function- and pin-compatible with the
previous generation.
A simple axial or diametral magnet is sufficient for control of
the standard/legacy variant.
If stray field robustness of a rotating application is needed, a four-pole-pair
disk or ring magnet is required in combination with a Rotary Stray Field Immune variant.
Features
- SENT output according to SAE J2716 APR2016, optional PWM output
- Immune to stray fields (Stray-Field Immune version)
- Functionally compatible with previous generation (standard/legacy version)

- Chip revision "ACE" or "ADE" ("ACC" not for new developments)
(see data sheet for details)
The ICs are unprogrammed and can only be reprogrammed or adapted to the magnetic design by a Melexis Programmer PTC-04 with Daughterboard PTC04-DB-HALL06.
