Arcminaxis© MLX90384 Sensors

Melexis Arcminaxis^© MLX90384 Sensors comprise a four-component set for a high-accuracy magnetic encoder solution. The first component, a sensor chip with two monolithic magnetic position sensor ICs, each incorporates a Triaxis^® Hall magnetic front end, an analog-to-digital converter, hardware for high-speed signal conditioning, and a 10MHz high-speed SPI interface. The ICs are formatted to be sensitive to a first magnetic flux density component parallel to the chip plane and a second component perpendicular to the chip. The second component is a Vernier-type magnet with two tracks of eight and seven pole pairs. The MLX90384 sensor chip measures both tracks' axial and tangential magnetic components. It transmits this information to a microcontroller, which generates the accurate angular position and speed, and the counted turnout of this information. The third part is a precompiled software package for an STM32.
