1. Evaluation Board (EVB_MLX90316DC)

1.1. Description

The EVB_MLX90316DC consists into a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and Magnetic Knob.

•

The PCB implements the recommended application diagram from the MLX90316 datasheet. The

MLX90316DC (SOIC-8) is mounted on the board. It also includes an aluminum ring in order to center

the magnetic knob (see below) above the sensitive area of MLX90316. By default, the output transfer

characteristic is programmed to get a 10%Vdd ... 90%Vdd analog output swing for 0 … 360 Degrees

travel (complete revolution).

•

The magnetic knob features a small SmCo magnet diametrally magnetized D6H2.5 (Diameter = 6 mm

and Height = 2.5 mm).

1.2. Application Diagram

The Pin SCLK and /SS are left floating in order to enable the use of the EVB in Serial Protocol mode. If

this mode is not activated, we recommend shorting those pins to GND through 0 Ohm resistor. It is

mandatory to run EMI test.

If the Serial Protocol mode is activated, the PCB allows the introduction of decoupling capacitor.
