Product details
Overview
MLX90367KDC-ABV-000-SP from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic Hall-effect position sensor IC delivering absolute rotary or linear position measurement via SENT output (SAE J2716-2010). It senses all three magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) with 12-bit resolution and 10-bit thermal accuracy in SOIC-8 package, operating from −40 °C to +150 °C. Used in automotive throttle, pedal, and steering wheel position sensing where non-contact robustness and diagnostic-rich serial output are required.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90367KDC-ABV-000-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world application cards, and two confirmed alternative parts - all grounded in Melexis Revision 7.0 datasheet (Feb 2019) and ordering information.
Technical Context
The MLX90367KDC-ABV-000-SP implements on-chip analog signal processing (ASP) and digital signal processing (DSP) to compute absolute angular or linear position from orthogonal and parallel magnetic flux components. Its CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion enables precise angle decoding without external computation.
It supports SENT output in Throttle Sensor Format or Secure Sensor Format, delivering primary position data plus enhanced serial messages with error codes and user-defined values. The device features programmable multi-point linear transfer characteristics (17-point LNR), thermal offset correction, and dual-die redundancy capability - though this specific variant (ABV-000) is single-die SOIC-8.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90367KGO-ACX-000-RE | Dual-die TSSOP-16 package with full hardware redundancy; supports higher integrity ASIL-D systems | Required for redundant safety-critical steering or brake actuation where fault tolerance is mandated | Select when system-level ISO 26262 ASIL-D compliance demands hardware redundancy beyond single-die diagnostics |
| MLX90371KDC-ABG-000-SP | Next-generation Triaxis® sensor with PWM/SENT dual output, improved noise immunity (0.05° pk-pk), and extended 16-bit EEPROM | Better suited for new designs requiring lower latency (1.2 ms), higher resolution, or dual-output flexibility | Choose for greenfield automotive projects needing longer product lifecycle support and enhanced EMC robustness |
Compared with MLX90367KDC-ABV-000-SP, the dual-die MLX90367KGO-ACX-000-RE adds hardware-level fault tolerance but increases PCB area and cost, while MLX90371KDC-ABG-000-SP offers superior noise performance and future-proof programmability - making both alternatives appropriate only when those specific advantages are required.
