MLX90424 - Triaxis® mainstream linear SFI position sensor with wake-up switch function

The MLX90424 is a magnetic position sensor IC designed for linear movement applications integrating a wake up switch function. It leverages the combined capabilities of three distinct dies: two MLX90423 Triaxis® Hall magnetic front ends and one MLX92292 Latch and Switch. The MLX90424 accurately detects the three components of magnetic flux density (Bx, By, Bz).

This enables precise measurement of linear displacement, making it ideal for applications where non-contact position sensing is essential. The MLX90424 offers flexible output options, including PWM, and SENT frames encoded in a Secure Sensor format. This ensures compatibility with various systems and simplifies integration.
