MLX90378GDC-ABJ-300

Manufacturer: Melexis

The MLX90378GDC-ABJ-300 is a Triaxis performance 3D and joystick position sensor IC, dual output (SENT / PWM) from Melexis, part of the Triaxis performance (third generation) line. With its integrated magnetic concentrator it senses the three spatial components (Bx, By and Bz) of the applied magnetic field contactlessly, which is what allows 3D and joystick movement to be determined from a single device. Key parameters for this ordering code: type is 3D Magnetic Sensor; motion is Joystick; supply voltage is 5 V / 12 V; offered in the SOIC-8 package; rated operating temperature is -40 to +160 °C. Parameters above are taken from the manufacturer datasheet; confirm the current revision before finalising a design.
