The MLX90340, an absolute position sensor based on the Melexis Triaxis Hall technology for flexible sensing applications, is targeted for various applications in consumer and industrial markets. With a reduced set of core parameters compared to other Triaxis sensors in the portfolio, the MLX90340 only targets the essential: position sensing with the greatest ease of designing a magnet. It still offers the best flexibility to measure 360 degrees rotational (end-of-shaft or through-shaft) and up to a ±20 mm linear magnet movement.
