Melexis MLX9042x Triaxis 3D magnetic position sensors

Mouser Electronics, Inc. now stocks the MLX90421 Triaxis 3D magnetic position sensing solution from Melexis, part of the MLX9042x series of position sensors. Designed for automotive applications, the position sensors are suitable for harsh environments. The sensors support a range of automotive needs, including pedal position sensors, throttle position sensors, transmission position sensors and steering wheel position sensors.

The magnetic position sensor features ASIL-B functional safety and improved electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). The sensor supports ratiometric analog and PWM output modes. The magnetic position sensor also features an operating temperature range of -40 to +160°C. The sensor supports the SENT (SAE J2716) output mode. The magnetic sensor is also designed to achieve absolute position sensing with on-chip signal processing.

The MLX90425 Triaxis 360° Rotary Position Sensor with stray field immunity measures absolute position in harsh and noisy environments. The MLX90425 device offers a programmable measurement range and supports ratiometric analog and PWM output modes. The MLX9046 Triaxis 360° rotary position sensors are available in either a SOIC-8 (DC) single die or an SMP-3 (VE), dual die PCB-less package. The MLX9046 sensor supports both industrial and automotive applications, including powertrain actuators, transmission systems and fuel level gauges.
