Description
The MLX90292 is a CMOS Hall sensor with embedded μController. With its specific architecture and the help of a dedicated firmware, the magnetic flux density perpendicular to the chip surface can be measured. It is designed for contact-less magnetic flux measurement that is frequently required in automotive electrical power steering applications.
The MLX90292 is a dual die and the following specification is valid for both die.
