MLX90421GDC-ADC-000

Manufacturer: Melexis

The MLX90421GDC-ADC-000 is a Triaxis mainstream rotary and linear position sensor IC (analog / PWM) from Melexis, part of the Triaxis mainstream (MLX9042x) line. It is the analog or PWM member of the MLX9042x series, the cost-conscious generation aimed at automotive customers who need accurate absolute position in harsh and noisy environments. Key parameters for this ordering code: type is Position Sensor; motion is On-axis, Off-axis, Linear; supply voltage is 5 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.

Overview

Melexis lists the MLX90421GDC-ADC-000 as a position sensor with sensing of on-axis, off-axis and linear fields, the SOIC-8 package, operation across -40 to +160 °C and an operating voltage of 5 V.

The MLX90421GDC-ADC-000 is part of the MLX90421 family, described by the manufacturer as a triaxis mainstream rotary and linear position sensor IC (analog / PWM). For a specific build, the resolution quoted in the datasheet and the accuracy obtained in a real assembly are different figures, and both matter during selection.
