Automotive ambient lighting performance boosted and simplified
Melexis has extended its IC family with a new generation of its LIN RGB(W) LED controller. The new member – the MLX81113 – will support the further growth of RGB LED based automotive ambient lighting, also known as LIN RGB, which is already well established within nearly every OEM worldwide. The MLX81113 features more on-chip memory, higher output current and increased EMC robustness compared to the popular MLX81108. It also offers IS...
Wearables pivot to healthcare, printed electronics wins
One of the fastest growing segments within the $64bn wearable technology industry will be medical wearables, which will grow to $19.7bn in 2024, according to IDTechEx Research. Healthcare Sensor Innovations 2020, hosted in San Jose on March 17th to 18th, identifies and assesses the opportunities for printed and flexible electronics in healthcare as the technology enables a new wave of medical wearable devices.
Pressure sensor IC for hybrid vehicles
Melexis has announced its MLX90821 relative pressure sensor IC designed for measuring very low pressures in automotive applications. Using the latest MEMS technology closely integrated with an analogue signal chain and digital signal processing, the MLX90821 is a system-in-package IC solution for the measurement of fuel vapour pressure as low as 50 mbar and up to 700 mbar. This makes the MLX90821 suitable for EVAP systems designed for internal co...
Output option added to triaxis hall position sensor
Melexis has announced the MLX90373, part of the Triaxis rotary and linear Hall Effect position sensor family and the first Triaxis angle sensor to offer support for the PSI5 interface. The PSI5 is an open standard based on the technology used in millions of air bag safety systems.
Smart embedded motor drive portfolio for automotive applications
Global microelectronics engineering company, Melexis, has announced the latest addition to its Generation II embedded motor driver product portfolio for automotive applications, with the release of the MLX81206. This single-chip solution with 64 KB Flash memory offers higher integration with the ability to drive BLDC motors from 100W to 1,000W.
Triaxis hall position sensors provide dual-output options
Melexis has announced the MLX90374, the latest addition to its 3rd Generation of Triaxis Hall sensors, and the first to offer multiple outputs from a monolithic device. With dual outputs for the sensed motion, the MLX90374 can remove the need for a second position sensor in a range of applications.Based on Melexis’ proprietary 3D Hall sensing technology, the MLX90374 provides the absolute position of a moving magnet, covering 360° rotat...
Passive components enable smaller solution and PCB-less mounting
Melexis has introduced the MLX92223, a PCB-less 2-Wire Hall-Effect Latch with integrated passives (392Ω resistor and decoupling capacitor), making it compatible with industry-standard Electronic Control Units (ECUs) without the need for any additional external components.
First automotive grade single-chip VGA ToF sensor announced
Melexis has announced availability of the single-chip Automotive grade VGA Time-of-Flight (ToF) image sensor for applications such as in-car and exterior monitoring. The MLX75027 is a system-on-chip solution, providing VGA (640x480 pixel) resolution image sensing and processing in a single BGA package.
High operating temperature thermal sensor array launched
Melexis has announced a new version of its popular far infrared (FIR) thermal sensor array. The new device has lower thermal noise compared to the current MLX90640, an increased refresh rate of 64Hz and an elevated operating temperature up to 125°C.This latest sensing technology allows for simplified integration of temperature measurement into applications that enhance safety, efficiency, convenience - especially in harsh thermal conditions.
