2. Description
The MLX90333 is a monolithic sensor IC featuring the Tria⊗is™ Hall technology. Conventional planar Hall
technology is only sensitive to the flux density applied orthogonally to the IC surface. The Tria⊗is™ Hall
sensor is also sensitive to the flux density applied parallel to the IC surface. This is obtained through an
Integrated Magneto-Concentrator (IMC®) which is deposited on the CMOS die (as an additional back-end
step).
The MLX90333 is sensitive to the 3 components of the flux density applied to the IC (BX, BY and BZ). This
allows the MLX90333 to sense any magnet moving in its surrounding and it enables the design of novel
generation of non-contacting joystick position sensors which are often required for both automotive and
industrial applications (e.g. man-machine interface).
Furthermore, the capability of measuring BX, BY and BZ allows the MLX90333 to be considered as
universal non-contacting position sensor i.e. not limited to joystick applications. For instance, a linear
travel can be sensed with the MLX90333 once included in a specific magnetic design.
In combination with the appropriate signal processing, the magnetic flux density of a small magnet (axial
magnetization) moving above the IC can be measured in a non-contacting way (Figure 3). The two (2)
angular information are computed from the three (3) vector components of the flux density (i.e. BX, BY and
BZ). MLX90333 reports two (2) linear output signals. The output formats are selectable between Analog,
PWM and Serial Protocol.

6. Detailed Description
As described on the block diagram (Figure 1 and Figure 2), the magnetic flux density applied to the IC is
sensed through the Tria⊗is™ sensor front-end. This front-end consists into two orthogonal pairs (for each
of the two directions parallel with the IC surface i.e. X and Y) of conventional planar Hall plates (sensitive
element – blue area on Figure 4) and an Integrated Magneto-Concentrator (IMC® yellow disk on Figure
4).

Figure 4 - Tria⊗is™ sensor front-end (4 Hall plates + IMC® disk)
Two orthogonal components (respectively BX⊥ and BY⊥) proportional to the parallel components
(respectively BX// and BY//) are induced through the IMC and can be measured by both respective pairs of
conventional planar Hall plates as those are sensitive to the flux density applied orthogonally to them and
the IC surface. The third component BZ is also sensed by those four (4) conventional Hall plates as shown
above.

In summary, along X-axis, the left Hall plate measures “BX⊥ - BZ” while the right Hall plate measures “-BX⊥
- BZ”. Similarly, along the Y-axis, the left Hall plate measures “BY⊥ - BZ” while the right Hall plate measures
“-BY⊥ - BZ”.
Through an appropriate signal processing, the Tria⊗is™ sensor front-end reports the three (3)
components of the applied magnetic flux density B i.e. BX, BY and BZ.
Indeed, by subtracting the signals from the two (2) Hall plates in each pair, the components BX⊥ and BY⊥
are measured while BZ is cancelled. To the contrary, by adding the signals from the two (2) Hall plates in
each pair, the component BZ is measured while BX⊥ and BY⊥ are cancelled
In a joystick based on a “gimbal” mechanism as shown on Figure 3 (left), the magnet (axial magnetization)
moves on a hemisphere centered at the IC. The flux density is described through the following
relationships:
B X = SIN (α ) ⋅ COS ( β )
BY = COS (α ) ⋅ SIN ( β )
BZ = COS (α ) ⋅ COS ( β )
Those components are plotted on the Figure 5, Figure 6 and Figure 7.

Three (3) differential voltages corresponding to the three (3) components of the applied flux density are
provided to the ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter – Figure 8 and Figure 9). The Hall signals are
processed through a fully differential analog chain featuring the classic offset cancellation technique (Hall
plate quadrature spinning and chopper-stabilized amplifier).
The amplitude of VZ is smaller than the other two (2) components VX and VY due to fact that the magnetic
gain of the IMC only affects the components parallel to the IC surface.

Triaxis 3D-Joystick Position Sensor
The conditioned analog signals are converted through an ADC (configurable − 14 or 15 bits) and provided
to a DSP block for further processing. The DSP stage is based on a 16 bit RISC micro-controller whose
primary function is the extraction of the two (2) angular information from the three (3) raw signals (after socalled front-end compensation steps) through the following operations:
⎛ VX
⎝ k ZVZ
⎞
⎟⎟
⎠
⎛ V
⎞
α = ATAN ⎜⎜
β = ATAN ⎜⎜ Y ⎟⎟
⎝ k Z VZ ⎠
where kZ is a programmable parameter.
In a joystick based on a “ball & socket” joint as shown on Figure 3 (right), the magnet (axial
magnetization) moves on a hemisphere centered at the pivot point. The flux density is described through
slightly more complex equations but the MLX90333 offers an alternate algorithm to extract both angular
informations:
⎛
⎞
⎟
⎜ (k V ) 2 + (k V ) 2 ⎟
Z Z
t Y
⎝
⎠
α = ATAN ⎜
⎛
VX
⎞
⎟
⎜ (k V ) 2 + (k V ) 2 ⎟
Z Z
t X
⎝
⎠
β = ATAN ⎜
VY
where kZ and kt are programmable parameters.
The DSP functionality is governed by the micro-code (firmware − F/W) of the micro-controller which is
stored into the ROM (mask programmable). In addition to the ″ATAN″ function, the F/W controls the whole
analog chain, the output transfer characteristic, the output protocol, the programming/calibration and also
the self-diagnostic modes.
In the MLX90333, the ″ATAN″ function is computed via a look-up table (i.e. it is not obtained through a
CoRDiC algorithm).
Due to the fact that the ″ATAN″ operation is performed on the ratios ″VX/VZ″ and ″VY/VZ″, the angular
information are intrinsically self-compensated vs. flux density variations (due to airgap change, thermal or
ageing effects) affecting the magnetic signal. This feature allows therefore an improved thermal accuracy
vs. joystick based on conventional linear Hall sensors.
Once the angular information is computed (over 360 degrees), it is further conditioned (mapped) vs. the
target transfer characteristic and it is provided at the output(s) as:
•
•
•
an analog output level through a 12 bit DAC followed by a buffer
a digital PWM signal with 12 bit depth (programmable frequency 100 Hz … 1 kHz)
a digital Serial Protocol (SP − 14 bits computed angular information available)

For instance, the analog output can be programmed for offset, gain and clamping to meet any rotary
position sensor output transfer characteristic:
Vout(α) = ClampLo
Vout(α) = Voffset + Gain × α
Vout(α) = ClampHi
for α ≤ αmin
for αmin ≤ α ≤ αmax
for α ≥ αmax
Vout(β) = ClampLo
Vout(β) = Voffset + Gain × β
Vout(β) = ClampHi
for β ≤ βmin
for βmin ≤ β ≤ βmax
for β ≥ βmax
where Voffset, Gain, ClampLo and ClampHi are the main adjustable parameters for the end-user.
The linear part of the transfer curve can be adjusted through a 3 point calibration. Once only one output is
used, a 5 point calibration is also available for further improvement of the linearity.
The calibration parameters are stored in EEPROM featuring a Hamming Error Correction Coding (ECC).
The programming steps do not require any dedicated pins. The operation is done using the supply and
output nodes of the IC. The programming of the MLX90333 is handled at both engineering lab and
production line levels by the Melexis Programming Unit PTC-04 with the MLX90316 daughterboard and
dedicated software tools (DLL − User Interface).

14.2.1. Analog Output Mode
The Analog Output Mode is a rail-to-rail and ratiometric output with a push-pull output stage configuration
allows the use of a pull-up or pull-down resistor.
14.2.2. PWM Output Mode
If one of the PWM Output modes is selected, the output signal is a digital signal with Pulse Width
Modulation (PWM).
In mode 5, the output stage is an open drain NMOS transistor (low side), to be used with a pull-up resistor
to VDD.
In mode 7, the output stage is a push-pull stage for which Melexis recommends the use of a pull-up
resistor to VDD.
The PWM polarity of the Out 1 (Out 2) is selected by the PWMPOL1 (PWMPOL2) parameter:
•
•
PWMPOL1 (PWMPOL2) = 0 for a low level at 100%
PWMPOL1 (PWMPOL2) = 1 for a high level at 100%

14.3.1. The Polarity and Modulo Parameters
The angle Alpha is defined as the arctangent of X/Z and Beta as the arctangent of Y/Z. It is possible to
invert the polarity of these angles via the parameters ALPHA_POL and BETA_POL set to “1”.
The MLX90313 can also be insensitive to the field polarity by setting the
ALPHA_MOD180/BETA_MOD180 to “1”.

14.3.2. Alpha/Beta Discontinuity Point (or Zero Degree Point)
The Discontinuity Point defines the zero point of the circle (Alpha or Beta). The discontinuity point places
the origin at any location of the trigonometric circle (see Figure 12).
For a Joystick Application, Melexis recommends to set the DP to zero.
14.3.3. LNR Parameters
The LNR parameters, together with the clamping values, fully define the relation (the transfer function)
between the digital angles (Alpha and Beta) and the output signals.
The shape of the MLX90333 transfer function from the digital angle values to the output voltages is
described by the drawing below (See Figure 11). Four segments can be programmed but the clamping
levels are necessarily flat.

14.3.4. CLAMPING Parameters
The clamping levels are two independent values to limit the output voltage range. The CLAMP_LOW
parameter adjusts the minimum output voltage level. The CLAMP_HIGH parameter sets the maximum
output voltage level. Both parameters have 16 bits of adjustment. In analog mode, the resolution will be
limited by the D/A converter (12 bits) to 0.024%VDD. In PWM mode, the resolution will be 0.024%DC. In
SPI mode, the resolution is 14bits or 0.022deg over 360deg.
14.3.5. DEADZONE Parameter
The dead zone is defined as the angle window between 0 and 359.9999 (See Figure 12).
When the digital angle (Alpha or Beta) lies in this zone, the IC is in fault mode (RESONFAULT must be
set to “1” – See 14.7.1).
In case of ALPHA_MOD180 (or BETA_MOD180) is not set, the angle between 180° and 360° will
generate a “deadzone” fault, unless DEADZONE=0.

14.5.1. HIGHSPEED Parameter
The HIGHSPEED parameter defines the main frequency for the DSP.
• HIGHSPEED = 0 selects the Slow mode with a 7 MHz master clock.
• HIGHSPEED = 1 selects the Fast mode with a 20 MHz master clock.
For better noise performance, the Slow Mode must be enabled.
14.5.2. GAINMIN and GAINMAX Parameters
The MLX90333 features an automatic gain control (AGC) of the analog chain. The AGC loop is based on
(VX)²+ (VY)² + (VZ)² = (Amplitude)² = (Radius)²
and it targets an amplitude of 90% of the ADC input span.
The current gain can be read out with the programming unit PTC-04 and gives a rough indication of the
applied magnetic flux density (Amplitude).
GAINMIN & GAINMAX define the boundaries within the gain setting is allowed to vary. Outside this range,
the outputs are set in diagnostic low.
14.5.3. FIELDTHRES_MIN and FIELDTHRES_MAX Parameters
The strength of the applied field is constantly calculated in a background process. The value of this field
can be read out with the PTC-04 and
FIELDTHRES_MIN & FIELDTHRES_MAX define the boundaries within the actual field strength (Radius)
is allowed to vary. Outside this range, the outputs are set in diagnostic low.

The MLX90333 includes 3 types of filters:
• Hysteresis Filter: programmable by the FHYST parameter
• Low Pass FIR Filters controlled with the Filter parameter
• Low Pass IIR Filter controlled with the Filter parameter and the coefficients FILTER A1 and
FILTER A2
Note: if the parameter FSWAP is set to “1”, the filtering is active on the digital angle. If set to “0”, the
filtering is active on the output transfer function.
14.6.1. Hysteresis Filter
The FHYST parameter is a hysteresis filter. The output value of the IC is not updated when the digital step
is smaller than the programmed FHYST parameter value. The output value is modified when the
increment is bigger than the hysteresis. The hysteresis filter reduces therefore the resolution to a level
compatible with the internal noise of the IC. The hysteresis must be programmed to a value close to the
noise level.
Please note that for the programmable version, the FHYST parameter is set to 4 by default. If you do not
wish this feature, please set it to “0”.
14.6.2. FIR Filters
The MLX90333 features 6 FIR filter modes controlled with Filter = 0…5. The transfer function is described
below:

14.7.1. RESONFAULT Parameter
This RESONFAULT parameter disables the soft reset when a fault is detected by the CPU when the
parameter is set to 1. By default, the parameter is set to “0” but it is recommended to set it to “1” to
activate the self diagnostic modes (See section 15).
Note that in the User Interface (MLX90333UI), the RESONFAULT is split in two bits:
• DRESONFAULT: disable the reset in case of a fault.
• DOUTINFAULT: disable output in diagnostic low in case of fault.
14.7.2. EEHAMHOLE Parameter
The EEHAMHOLE parameter disables the memory recovery (Hamming code) check when a fault is
detected by the CRC when it is equal to 3131h. By default the parameter is set to 0 (enable memory
