Product details
Overview
MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic position processor IC that measures all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) to deliver absolute rotary position output with 12-bit resolution and ±1.5° total angular error over -40°C to +160°C. It operates from 4.5–5.5 V, draws 6–10 mA, and supports programmable ratiometric analog or PWM output in Rotary Stray-Field Immune Mode for automotive pedal and throttle sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this DMP-4 packaged device delivers ASIL-B functional safety compliance, stray-field immunity, and user-programmable transfer characteristics for high-reliability non-contact position feedback in harsh environments.
Technical Context
The MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX implements integrated magnetic concentrators (IMC) and on-chip DSP to decode absolute angle from rotating magnets using Triaxis® Hall technology. Its architecture includes a 12-bit ADC, FIR filtering (configurable up to 4-stage), and dual-path signal processing for simultaneous thermal compensation and stray-field rejection.
This variant uses the DMP-4 package with straight leads (STD1 2.54 mm pitch), supports only Rotary Stray-Field Immune Mode (BCC-1xx option code), and features programmable 4-/8-point linearization or 16-/32-segment piecewise-linear transfer functions - all stored in NVRAM and configurable via I²C-compatible serial interface.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V - compatible with standard automotive 5 V rails; reverse polarity protection to -14 V. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +160°C - qualified for under-hood automotive applications including throttle bodies and brake pedals. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit - provides 4096 discrete angular positions across 0–360°, enabling <0.1° quantization step. |
| Angular Accuracy | ±1.5° total error - includes INL, thermal drift, and magnetic hysteresis; specified for Rotary Stray-Field Immune Mode. |
| Latency Time | 440–462 μs - deterministic delay from magnetic change to valid output update; critical for closed-loop control timing. |
| Output Options | Ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (150–2000 Hz) - selectable per application; no external components required for basic operation. |
| Functional Safety | ISO 26262 ASIL-B SEooC - includes internal diagnostics (watchdog, memory ECC, supply monitoring) without requiring external safety controller. |
Pinout & Package
DMP-4 package: 4-pin, dual-mold, PCB-less surface-mount device with 2.54 mm lead pitch (STD1 configuration); no exposed die, integrated decoupling capacitance not required.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS | Ground reference for analog and digital domains; must be connected to system ground with low-impedance path. |
| 2 | VDD | Main power supply input (4.5–5.5 V); internal regulator supplies core logic and sensor front-end. |
| 3 | OUT | Programmable output terminal delivering either ratiometric analog voltage or PWM signal; push-pull capable. |
| 4 | VSS | Dedicated ground return for output stage; tied internally to Pin 1 but recommended as separate low-noise connection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Sensing | Measures BX, BY, BZ simultaneously to compute absolute angle independent of magnet axial alignment or air gap variation. |
| Stray-Field Immunity | Rejects interfering fields up to ±1 mT in X/Y plane while maintaining ±1.5° accuracy - validated for rotary mode per BCC-1xx configuration. |
| On-Chip Linearization | Supports 4/8-point LNR or 16/32-segment PWL transfer curves programmed into NVRAM - eliminates host MCU calibration overhead. |
| Integrated Diagnostics | Includes open-circuit, short-circuit, supply fault, and watchdog detection with active/passive diagnostic outputs - meets ASIL-B requirements. |
| Robust Output Stage | Push-pull output drives 5 kΩ load directly; slew rate controlled (35–200 V/ms) to limit EMI in noisy automotive harnesses. |
Applications
| Pedal Position Sensing | Throttle Position Sensing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitoring accelerator or brake pedal rotation in electric and ICE vehicles for drive-by-wire control. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute rotary position transducer providing real-time angle feedback to ECU with <462 μs latency.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90371GVS-BCC-100-RE | DMP-4 package, same Rotary Stray-Field Immune Mode, but uses 100 nF output capacitor and standard straight leads (not STD1 trim-and-form). | Designed for general-purpose rotary sensing where tighter mechanical tolerances are not required. | Select BCC-100-RE when board-level decoupling is preferred and lead coplanarity is less critical than with BCC-151-RX's STD1 2.54 mm form. |
| MLX90372GVS-BCC-151-RX | Successor device with identical DMP-4/STD1 packaging and pinout; adds enhanced EMC performance and extended diagnostic coverage per ISO 26262 ASIL-B. | Targets next-generation automotive platforms requiring higher immunity to radiated RF and faster diagnostic response. | Choose MLX90372GVS-BCC-151-RX for new designs needing improved robustness; MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX remains valid for cost-sensitive legacy integration. |
Compared with MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX, the BCC-100-RE variant lacks the STD1 lead form factor and integrated 10 nF capacitor, while the MLX90372GVS-BCC-151-RX offers upgraded EMC and diagnostics without changing mechanical or electrical interface - making both viable alternatives depending on qualification scope and performance tier.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX?
The MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX is qualified for continuous operation from -40°C to +160°C ambient temperature. This range is validated per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 requirements and supports placement in high-heat zones such as engine compartments, transmission housings, and brake assemblies. The device maintains its ±1.5° angular accuracy and 12-bit resolution across the full range without derating.
Does the MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX require external programming hardware?
No, the MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX does not require dedicated programming hardware. Configuration is performed via its I²C-compatible serial interface using standard microcontroller GPIOs or an industry-standard programmer. All user-programmable parameters - including output mode, linearization points, diagnostic thresholds, and clamping levels - are stored in on-chip NVRAM and persist through power cycles.
How does the MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX achieve stray-field immunity in rotary mode?
The MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX achieves stray-field immunity in Rotary Stray-Field Immune Mode through proprietary Triaxis® signal processing that separates useful rotational field components (BZ) from interfering in-plane fields (BX, BY). Its on-chip DSP applies real-time vector subtraction and adaptive filtering, validated to maintain ±1.5° accuracy under ±1 mT external X/Y field exposure - a capability confirmed in the BCC-1xx option code specification.
What output types does the MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX support?
The MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX supports two programmable output types: ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD) and PWM (150–2000 Hz). Both are selected and configured via NVRAM programming. The analog output has 12-bit resolution and 10-bit thermal accuracy; the PWM output includes frequency tolerance of ±5% and thermal drift of ±3%, with rise/fall times under 11 μs into 4.7 kΩ/4.7 nF loads.
Is the MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX pin-compatible with other MLX90371 variants in DMP-4 package?
Yes, all MLX90371 variants in the DMP-4 package - including MLX90371GVS-BCC-100-RE, MLX90371GVS-BCC-151-RX, and MLX90371GVS-BCC-200-RX - share identical 4-pin pinout (VSS-VDD-OUT-VSS), mechanical footprint, and solder pad layout. Differences lie solely in factory-programmed configuration (e.g., stray-field mode, capacitor value, lead form), not in physical connectivity or electrical interface.
