It consists of a Triaxis® Hall magnetic front end, an analog to digital signal conditioner, a DSP for advanced signal processing and an output stage driver. The MLX90377 is sensitive to the three components of the magnetic flux density applied to the IC (i.e. Bx, By and Bz). This allows the MLX90377 with the correct magnetic circuit to decode the absolute position of any moving magnet (e.g. rotary position from 0 to 360 Degrees or linear displacement, see Figure 2). It enables the design of non-contacting position sensors that are frequently required for both automotive and industrial applications. The MLX90377 provides 3 output modes. Firstly, the IC supports (fast) SENT frames encoded according to a Secure Sensor format. The output delivers enhanced serial messages providing error codes, and user-defined values. Through programming, the MLX90377 can also be configured to output a PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) signal. Finally, analog ratiometric output is also supported. VDD INPUT DMP-4 SMP-3 Rev.

Timing Definitions 7.2.1. Startup Time In analog mode, the startup time is the time between the power on cycle and the time the first valid angle transmitted on the output. During startup, the sensor output is in High-Z state, and the driver is only enabled when the sensor is able to transmit a valid output. In SENT mode, the startup time consists of two values. The first one, Tinit, is the time needed for the circuit to be ready to start acquiring an angle. In SENT mode, at that time, the IC starts transmitting initialisation frames. The second value, Tstup, is the time when the first valid angle is transmitted. 8 Including thermal and lifetime drift REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 15 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet VDDstartH Supply Voltage Tinit SENT output Tstup High-Z Null Frame Null Frame Null Frame Valid Angle Valid Angle Tstup3 Tstup2 Tstup1 Output Ready PWM output High-Z (no drive) First Sync Pulse First Valid Angle Figure 4 - Startup Time Definition In PWM mode, startup is defined by three values, Tstup[1..3]. The first value is reached when the output is ready and starts to drive a voltage. The second value T2 is the start of the first value angle transmission and the third one T3 the moment the first angle has been transmitted. 7.2.2. Latency (average) angle/position Latency is the average lag between the movement of the detected object (magnet) and the response of the sensor output, as shown in Figure 5, where theta_ECU(t) is sampled as the beginning of the synchronization pulse. This value is representative of the time constant of the system for regulation calculations. theta_magnet(t) theta_ECU(t) τL time Figure 5 - Definition of Latency 7.2.3. Step Response (worst case) The step response is a suitable metric for the "delay" of the sensor in case of an abrupt step in the magnetic change, considering 100% settling time without any DSP filter. Full settling is typically achieved in just two steps. The sensor is asynchronous with the magnetic step change: the 100% settling time will fall in a time window; worst case is illustrated in the figure below.

Continuous Synchronous Acquisition Mode For the SENT output protocol in the Standard/Legacy Mode, MLX90377 with the default factory calibration operates with constant SENT frame length (SENT with pause), where a constant latency and step response time is guaranteed. The length of the SENT frame is defined by the parameter T_FRAME in number of ticks (see Table 42). The sensor is configured in continuous synchronous timing mode, acquires angles based on the output frequency, and the sensor output has a fixed frame frequency. The detailed default setting of the SENT protocol for order code -33x is as follows:  Protocol: SENT with pause  Tick time: 3μs/tick  SENT format: A.3 (H.4)  Number of conversions per SENT frame: 2  ADC clock frequency: 3MHz  DSP linearization: 16 points The corresponding timing specifications are listed in Table 15.

If the sensor is configured from the default factory setting of -33x code to have 1 conversion per SENT frame, the minimum tick count is 282. 13 See section 14.4 for details concerning Filter parameter. It is an option to improve the speed, but will degrade noise performance (see section 9.4) by a factor of 1.4. 14 REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 19 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet 7.4.1.2. Continuous Asynchronous Acquisition Mode Optionally to the default factory setting of the -33x code, the MLX90377 can be configured to operate with variable SENT frame length (SENT without pause), where latency and step response is dependent on the transmitted data. The length of the SENT frame is defined by the data content. The sensor is configured in the continuous asynchronous acquisition mode and periodically acquires a magnetic measurement asynchronously to the SENT transmission. When configured in the continuous asynchronous acquisition mode, the detailed default setting of the SENT protocol for order code -33x is as follows:  Protocol: SENT without pause  Tick time: 3μs/tick  SENT format: A.3 (H.4)  ADC clock frequency: 3MHz  DSP linearization: 16 points The corresponding timing specifications are listed in Table 16.

Vpull-up stands for the external pull up voltage. The worst-case scenario for this parameter is in the NMOS open-drain mode, where there is the maximal voltage difference between Vpull-up and VDD. Furthermore, this parameter highly depends on the Vpullup , the capacitive and resistive load at the output. The rise/fall time should be adjusted accordingly, with a different V pull-up value and RC time constant resulting from the output load. 19 REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 21 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet 8.

Accuracy Specifications Accuracy specifications are valid for temperature range [-40;160] °C and supply voltage range [4.5; 5.5] V unless otherwise noted. 9.1. Definitions This section defines several parameters, which will be used for the magnetic specifications. ea ea l Cu r su re ve d Cu rv e Id M Output (%DC, Deg) 9.1.1. Intrinsic Linearity Error Noise (pk-pk) Intrinsic Linearity Error (LE) ±3σ Input (Deg.) Figure 10 - Sensor accuracy definition Figure 10 depicts the intrinsic linearity error in new parts. The Intrinsic Linearity Error refers to the IC itself (offset, sensitivity mismatch, orthogonality) considering an ideal magnetic field. Once associated to a practical magnetic construction and the associated mechanical and magnetic tolerances, the output linearity error increases. However, it can be significantly reduced with the multi-point end-user calibration (see 14.2). 9.1.2. Total Angle Drift After calibration, the output angle of the sensor might still change due to temperature change, aging, etc. This is defined as the total drift 𝜕𝜕𝜕𝜕𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇 : 𝜕𝜕𝜕𝜕𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇 = |max{𝜃𝜃(𝜃𝜃𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼 , 𝑇𝑇, 𝑡𝑡) − 𝜃𝜃(𝜃𝜃𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼 , 𝑇𝑇𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 , 𝑡𝑡0 )}| where 𝜃𝜃𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼 is the input angle, 𝑇𝑇 is the temperature, 𝑇𝑇𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 is the room temperature, and 𝑡𝑡 is the elapsed lifetime after calibration. 𝑡𝑡0 represents the status at the start of the operating life. Note the total drift 𝜕𝜕𝜕𝜕𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇 is always defined with respect to the angle at room temperature. In this datasheet, 𝑇𝑇𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 is typically defined at 35°C, unless stated otherwise. The total drift is valid for all angles along the full mechanical range. The total drift is expressed as an unsigned value, to indicate the ideal minimum drift should be 0. In reality, the drift can happen in both positive and negative directions. REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 26 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet 9.2.

Output configuration In SENT mode, the MLX90377 can be configured in open drain mode, normal push-pull mode, as well as an enhanced emission mode, which is the default configuration, see also section 14.1.1. The tick time is the unit reference for SENT. The default tick time value is 3μs. The output resistive load, e.g. the external pull-up or pull-down resistor should be carefully selected, because the MLX90377 has a built-in high order low pass filter. A large resistive load will deteriorate the generated SENT signal, and could make the output signal not comply to the SENT specifications, such as the fall times and the minimum output voltages, e.g. parameters VsatD_lopp/VsatD_hipp in Table 10 in chapter 6. In principle, the values in Table 10 in chapter 6 should be considered, which means it is not recommended to have a resistive load value smaller than 10kΩ, and a resistive load value smaller than 3kΩ should be avoided. The maximum output resistive load value should be less than 55kΩ to avoid unexpected impact from leakage current. Furthermore, the output capacitance should also be properly chosen, together with the output resistive load to correspondingly match the application, e.g. tick time, to allow appropriate time constant for the transmission of the SENT signal. Details can be seen in sections 16.1 and 16.2. REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 33 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet 11.2.6.

Serial message channel (slow channel) Serial data is transmitted sequentially in bit number 3 and 2 of the status and communication nibble. A serial message frame stretches over 18 consecutive SENT data messages from the transmitter. All 18 frames must be successfully received (no errors, calibration pulse variation, data nibble CRC error, etc.) for the serial value to be received. 11.2.7.1. Enhanced Serial Message (ESM) Enhanced serial message with 12-bit data and 8-bit message ID is used (SAE J2716 APR2016 5.2.4.2, Figure 5.2.4.2-2). According to the standard, SM[0] contains a 6bits CRC followed by a 12-bits data. Message content is defined by a 8-bit message ID transmitted in the SM[1] channel. Correspondence between ID and message content is defined in the tables below (Table 33, Table 34 and Table 35).

The shape of the MLX90377 4-pts transfer function from the digital angle value to the digital output is described in Figure 17. Seven segments can be programmed but the clamping levels are always flat. Two to six calibration points are available, reducing the overall non-linearity of the IC by almost an order of magnitude each time. Three or more calibration points will be preferred by customers looking for excellent non-linearity figures. Two-point calibrations will be preferred by customers looking for a lower cost calibration set-up and shorter calibration time. 100% CLAMPHIGH D Output [%] LNR_D_Y C LNR_C_Y B LNR_B_Y Slope LNR_C_S Slope LNR_B_S Slope LNR_A_S A LNR_A_Y Slope LNR_D_S Slope LNR_S0 CLAMPLOW LNR_A_X DP(0,0) LNR_B_X LNR_C_X LNR_D_X Angle [°] 360 Figure 17 – 4-pts Linearization Parameters Description 14.2.5. 8-pts LNR Parameters The LNR parameters, together with the clamping values, fully define the relation (the transfer function) between the digital angle and the output signal.

WORK_RANGE Parameter for Angle Range Selection The parameter WORK_RANGE determines the input range on which the 16 or 32 segments are uniformly spread. This parameter is provided for compatibility with former versions of Melexis Triaxis sensors. For full featured working range selection, see 14.2.9. For WORK_RANGE parameter, following table applies.

WORK_RANGE_GAIN Parameter for Angle Range Selection Alternatively, the range for the angle can be selected using the WORK_RANGE_GAIN parameter, which applies a fixed gain to the transfer characteristics. WORK_RANGE_GAIN is coded on 8 bits where the 4 MSB defines the integer part and the 4 LSB the fractional part (in power of twos). Therefore, the following equation applies to define the angle range w: 𝑤𝑤 = 16 ∗ 𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀 𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊_𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅_𝐺𝐺𝐺𝐺𝐺𝐺𝐺𝐺 MaxRange depends on the application. It is 360° for ordering code -2xx / -3xx, and 180° for ordering code -5xx (rotary stray-field immune). Both minimal and maximal angles are then defined by: 𝜃𝜃𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚 = 𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀 − 𝑤𝑤 𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀 + 𝑤𝑤 ; 𝜃𝜃𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚 = 2 2 where θmin corresponds to the angle yielding 0% output and θmax the angle giving a 100% output. REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 56 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet Using WORK_RANGE_GAIN parameter, the anchor point is kept at MaxRange/2 and the range is symmetrically set around this value. It creates a zoom-in of the angle around this point.

Thermal OUTSLOPE offset correction Two parameters, OUTSLOPEHOT and OUTSLOPECOLD, are used to add a temperature dependent offset. This feature is enabled by the parameter OUTSLOPE_SEL that apply this modification either directly to the angle or after the linearisation function. The MLX90377 uses its internal linearized temperature to compute the offset shift as depicted in the figure below (Figure 21). +6.25% (at ΔT=128°C) OUTSLOPEHOT OUTSLOPECOLD -6.25% (at ΔT=128°C) -40 Temperature (°C) 35 160 Figure 21 - Temperature compensated offset REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 57 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet The thermal offset can be added or subtracted to the output, before the clamping. The span of this offset is ±6.25% of the full output scale for a temperature difference of 128°C. The added thermal offset varies with temperature following the equations below. The two thermal coefficients are encoded in signed two’s complement 8bit format (-128..127) and defined separately below 35°C (OUTSLOPECOLD) and above 35°C (OUTSLOPEHOT). OUTSLOPE_SEL Description No thermal offset correction 0 Thermal offset enabled, applied after angle calculation, i.e. after discontinuity point (𝜃𝜃𝑟𝑟2𝑝𝑝 ) 1 Enabled, applied after output calculation and before clamping (𝜃𝜃𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜 ) 2 Table 55 - Temperature compensated offset selection parameter If IC internal temperature is higher than 35°C then: 𝜃𝜃𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇 = 𝜃𝜃𝑖𝑖𝑖𝑖 − Δ𝑇𝑇 ⋅ OUTSLOPEHOT If IC internal temperature is lower than 35°C then: 𝜃𝜃𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇 = 𝜃𝜃𝑖𝑖𝑖𝑖 − Δ𝑇𝑇 ⋅ OUTSLOPECOLD where 𝜃𝜃𝑖𝑖𝑖𝑖 is either 𝜃𝜃𝑟𝑟2𝑝𝑝 or 𝜃𝜃𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜 depending on OUSLOPE_SEL value. 14.2.11. CLAMPING Parameters The clamping levels are two independent values to limit the output voltage range. The CLAMPLOW parameter adjusts the minimum output level. The CLAMPHIGH parameter sets the maximum output. Both parameters have 16 bits of adjustment and are available for all four LNR modes. As output data resolution is limited to 12 bits, both in SENT and in PWM, the 4 LSB of this parameter will have no significant effect on the output. The value is encoded in fractional code, from 0% to 100% 14.3.

SENSING MODE The SENSING_MODE parameter defines which sensing mode and fields are used to calculate the angle. The different possibilities are described in the tables below. This 3-bit value selects the first (B1) and second (B2) field components according to the Table 57 content. MAPXYZ B1 B2 Angular 0 X Y Rotary position stray-field Immune, order code -100 and -5xx 1 X Y X-Y Angular Rotary, order code -3xx 2 Y Z Y-Z Angular Rotary, order code -3xx 3 X Z X-Z Angular Rotary, order code -3xx 4 ΔX ΔZ Linear position, stray-field Immune, order code -2xx Table 57 - Sensing Mode Description 14.3.2. GAINMIN and GAINMAX Parameters GAINMIN and GAINMAX define the thresholds on the gain code outside which the fault “GAIN out of Spec.” is reported. If GAINSATURATION is set, then the virtual gain code is clamped at GAINMIN and GAINMAX, and no diagnostic fault will be set since the clamping will prevent the gain from exceeding GAINMIN and GAINMAX. 14.4. Filtering The MLX90377 includes 2 types of filters:  Exponential moving average (EMA) Filter: programmable by the HYST parameter  Low Pass FIR Filters controlled with the FILTER parameter Parameter Value DSP_FILTER 0…2 HYST 0 … 255 Table 58 - Filtering configuration 14.4.1. Exponential Moving Average (IIR) Filter The HYST parameter is a hysteresis threshold to activate / de-activate the exponential moving average filter. The output value of the IC is updated with the applied filter when the digital step is smaller than the programmed HYST parameter value. The output value is updated without applying the filter when the increment is bigger than the hysteresis. The filter reduces therefore the noise but still allows a fast step response for bigger angle changes. The hysteresis must be programmed to a value close to the internal magnetic angle noise level (1LSB = 8 ∙ 360/216 ). yn = a * xn + (1 − a ) * yn−i REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 xn = Angle yn = Output Page 59 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet The filters characteristic is given in the following table (Table 59): DENOISING_FILTER_ALPHA_SEL 0 1 2 3 Coefficients a 0.75 0.5 0.25 0.125 2.4 4.2 Efficiency RMS (dB) Table 59 - IIR Filter characteristics 14.4.2.

Programmable Diagnostics Settings 14.5.1. Diagnostics Global Enable DIAG_EN must be kept to its default value (1) to retain all functional safety abilities of the MLX90377. This feature shall not be disabled. 14.5.2. Diagnostic Debouncer A debouncing algorithm is available for analog diagnostic reporting. Enabling this debouncer will increase the FHTI of the device. Therefore, Melexis recommends keeping the debouncing of analog faults off, by not modifying below described values. The factory default settings mentioned in chapter 12 should be used. NVRAM Parameter Description DIAGDEBOUNCE_STEPDOWN Decrement values for debouncer counter DIAGDEBOUNCE_STEPUP Increment value for debouncer counter DIAG_DEBOUNCE_THRESH Threshold for debouncer counter to enter diagnostic mode Table 61 - Diagnostic debouncing parameters Once an analog monitor detects an error, it takes control of the debouncing counter. This counter will be incremented by STEPUP value each time this specific monitor is evaluated and the error is still present. When the debouncing counter reaches the value defined by DEBOUNCE_THRESH, an error is reported on the error channel, and the debouncing counter stays clamped to this DEBOUNCE_THRESH value (see section 11.2.8 for SENT error message codes, and 14.5.5 for PWM error reporting). Once the error disappears, each time its monitor is evaluated, the debouncing counter is decremented by STEPDOWN value. When the debouncing counter reaches zero, the error disappears from the reporting channel and the debouncing counter is released. To implement proper reporting times, one should refer to the FHTI, see chapter 15.3. The reporting and recovery time are defined in the table below (valid for THRESH≠0).

DIAG_TEMP_THR_LOW defines the threshold for under temperature detection and is compared to the linearized value of the temperature sensor TLIN TLIN is encoded using the SENT standard for temperature sensor. One can get the physical temperature of the die using following formula: REVISION 002 - April 29, 2021 3901090377 Page 61 of 90 MLX90377 Triaxis® Position Sensor IC Datasheet 𝑇𝑇𝑃𝑃𝑃𝑃𝑃𝑃 [°𝐶𝐶] = 𝑇𝑇𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿 − 73.15 8 DIAG_TEMP_THR_LOW/HIGH are encoded on 8-bit unsigned values with the following relationship towards TLin 𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷𝐷_𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇_𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇𝑇_(𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿/𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻) = 𝑇𝑇𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿 16 The value of TLIN is clamped between the thresholds defined by DIAG_TEMP_THR_LOW and DIAG_TEMP_THR_HIGH.

Recommended Application Diagrams This chapter shows the typical application diagrams for the MLX90377 in different packages, which should not be considered as a specification but rather a recommendation. It is up to the end user to define the proper application circuit, based on the exact use-case, i.e. output protocol, power mode, etc. 16.1. Wiring with the MLX90377 in SOIC-8 Package Figure 22 shows the typical recommended application circuit for the MLX90377 in SOIC-8 package, and Table 68 shows the corresponding value of the external components.

C4, C5, R1, R2 are not needed under typical conditions. They are only needed, when extremely high electromagnetic immunity (EMI) compliance is required, but the value of the resistors and capacitors should not exceed 10Ω and 1nF. In SENT protocol, an external pi-filter to improve radiated emission performance is not needed. The MLX90377 has a built-in high order low pass filter. Therefore, any additional external filter will deteriorate the generated SENT signal, and could make the output signal not comply to the SENT specifications, such as the fall times and the minimum output voltages.
