Triaxis® mainstream rotary & linear position sensor IC (SENT) - MLX90366

Product description

The MLX90366 Triaxis® IC is based on a Dual Mold Package (DMP) which integrates the Triaxis® position sensor IC MLX90367 together with the discrete decoupling components necessary to meet the strenuous automotive ESD and EMC requirements as well as the mechanical robustness for the most challenging environments.

The MLX90366 carries over all the characteristics and features of the MLX90367, such as linear and rotary position sensing capability, SAE-J2716/SENT output, and ASIL-B.

Once encapsulated, this DMP can be welded or soldered directly to a rugged connector or termination and further potted or over-molded. The DMP simply makes the conventional PCB redundant while keeping intact all the features and benefits of the Triaxis® contactless sensing technology.
