Melexis MLX90366 Triaxis® Position Sensors

Melexis MLX90366 Triaxis® Position Sensors are Hall technology high accuracy linear and angular position sensors that eliminate the need for the inclusion of a PCB within sensing modules. These sensors are sensitive to the three components of the flux density applied to the IC. The series provides SENT frames encoded according to the secure sensor format. Other features include SENT output (according to SAE J2716-2010) and on-chip signal processing for robust absolute position sensing. Applications for Melexis MLX90366 Triaxis Position Sensors include absolute rotary position sensors, steering wheel position sensors, non-contacting potentiometers, and much more.
