MLX90308CAB
Programmable Sensor Interface
Unique Features
Customization
Melexis can customize the MLX90308 in both
hardware and firmware for unique requirements.
Melexis can also provide all necessary development
tools for the development of special firmware to
customize the MLX90308. The hardware design
provides 64 bytes of RAM, 3 kbytes of ROM, and 48
bytes of EEPROM for use by the firmware.
Special Information
The output of the sensor bridge is amplified via offset
and gain amplifiers and then converted to the correct
output signal form in one of the output stages.
The sensitivity and offset of the analog signal chain
are defined by numbers passed to the DAC
interfaces from the microcontroller core (GN[9:0] and
OF[9:0]). The wide range of bridge offset and gain is
accommodated by means of a 2-bit coarse
adjustment DAC in the offset adjustment (CSOF
[1:0]), and a similar one in the gain adjustment
(CSGN[2:0]). The signal path can be directed
through the processor for digital processing. Two I/O
pins are available for analog inputs or digital outputs.
These pins can be used for alarms on various points
on the analog signal path and built-in or external
temperature values.
Programming and Setup
The MLX90308 needs to have the
compensation coefficients programmed for a
particular bridge sensor to create the sensor
system. Programming the EEPROM involves
some minimal communications interface
circuitry, Melexis’ setup software, and a PC.
The communications interface circuitry is
available in a development board. This circuitry
communicates with the PC via a standard RS-
232 serial communications port.
Cross Reference
There are no known devices which the MLX
90308CAB can replace.
ESD Precautions
