MLX90393ELW-ABA-011

Manufacturer: Melexis

The MLX90393ELW-ABA-011 is a Triaxis micropower magnetometer (3D magnetic node) from Melexis, part of the 3D magnetometer line. It is a 3D magnetic node with programmable duty cycles from 0.1 % to 100 %, letting the system trade current consumption against speed and noise at run time — the reason it turns up in battery-powered position sensing. Key parameters for this ordering code: type is Position Sensor; motion is On-axis, Off-axis, Joystick, Linear; supply voltage is 3.3 V; offered in the QFN-16 package; rated operating temperature is -40 to +85 °C. Parameters above are taken from the manufacturer datasheet; confirm the current revision before finalising a design.

Overview

The Melexis MLX90393ELW-ABA-011 is a position sensor with QFN-16 packaging, a 3.3 V supply, on-axis, off-axis, joystick and linear sensing and operation across -40 to +85 °C.

The MLX90393ELW-ABA-011 is part of the MLX90393 family, described by the manufacturer as a triaxis micropower magnetometer (3D magnetic node). When the design is finalised, measured accuracy depends on the magnet, the air gap and the mechanical tolerances of the assembly, so these should be fixed before the design is validated.
