Melexis announces new brake pedal position sensor
MELEXIS ' MLX90424 is a cost-effective solution simplifying automotive brake pedal sensing.
For functional safety purposes, it integrates two position-sensing ICs and a wake-up switch all isolated in 1 package. The solution can be powered directly by the 12 V and handles precise measurements of linear displacement up to 30 mm.
Reaching the state of the art in safety-critical and space-constrained applications like automotive brake systems demands tailored sensors. The MLX90424 offers redundancy through its dual linear position sensing, while the integrated magnetic switch allows the implementation of a power-saving mode. When compared to a current brake pedal module including separated position sensors and switches, the fully integrated MLX90424 ensures that both the position sensing and switching element are placed together at the ideal location. This helps to reduce design and packaging considerations, simplifying assemblies and Bill of Material (BOM) component count. Additionally, the MLX90424 offers supply flexibility, allowing also to be powered directly from the 12 V battery without a regulator.
