Product details
Overview
MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic position processor IC that senses BX, BY, and BZ magnetic field components to deliver absolute rotary or linear position output with 12-bit resolution, ±10-bit thermal accuracy, and programmable analog or PWM output in Standard/Legacy Mode. It operates from -40°C to +160°C, supports stray-field immunity, and is used in automotive throttle, pedal, and steering wheel position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include DMP-4 package compatibility, 4.5–5.5 V supply operation, 440–462 µs latency, ISO26262 ASIL-B safety compliance, and programmable piecewise-linear transfer characteristics.
Technical Context
The MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX implements on-chip DSP-based signal processing of triaxial Hall sensor data to compute absolute angular or linear position without external microcontroller intervention. Its architecture includes a 12-bit ADC, FIR filtering (configurable up to 4-stage), temperature compensation, and non-volatile memory for user-programmable calibration and transfer functions.
This variant uses Standard/Legacy Mode firmware (BCC-300), enabling backward compatibility with prior-generation MLX9037x devices. It supports ratiometric analog output (0–100% VDD) or 150–2000 Hz PWM output, with clamping, diagnostic bands, and broken-wire detection fully configurable via NVRAM.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90372GVS-BCC-300-RX | Same DMP-4 package and BCC-300 mode, but adds enhanced diagnostic coverage and extended temperature qualification to +175°C junction. | Required where higher junction temperature margin or deeper diagnostic logging is mandated by OEM safety requirements. | Select MLX90372GVS-BCC-300-RX when upgrading legacy designs needing improved diagnostic completeness or extended thermal headroom. |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit resolution, SPI interface only (no analog/PWM), different magnetic configuration (requires diametric magnet), no ASIL-B certification. | Suitable for non-safety-critical industrial encoders but lacks automotive qualification and output flexibility. | Choose AMS AS5055A-BQFT only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive applications where SPI interface and higher resolution outweigh need for analog/PWM output and functional safety. |
Compared with MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX, the MLX90372 variant extends safety diagnostics and thermal range while maintaining pinout and firmware compatibility; the AS5055A offers higher resolution but requires redesign for SPI communication and lacks ASIL-B support, limiting automotive use.

Yes, the MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX supports selectable ratiometric analog voltage output (0–100% VDD) or programmable PWM output (150–2000 Hz). Output mode is configured via NVRAM programming during production or field calibration, and both modes retain full 12-bit resolution and ASIL-B safety mechanisms.
What package type does the MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX use, and what are its mounting advantages?
The MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX uses the DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package), a PCB-less surface-mount package with four leads. Its compact footprint, integrated decoupling capability, and absence of external capacitors simplify layout, reduce BOM count, and improve reliability in high-vibration environments such as engine compartments.
Is the MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX certified for automotive functional safety standards?
Yes, the MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX is certified as an ISO26262 ASIL-B Safety Element out of Context (SEooC). This includes documented safety mechanisms such as internal diagnostics, watchdog timers, memory ECC, and failure mode analysis - enabling its use in ASIL-B system architectures without requiring additional hardware redundancy.
How is the magnetic transfer function programmed on the MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX?
The MLX90371GVS-BCC-300-RX supports end-user programming of its transfer function via I²C-compatible interface using Melexis' PTM software. Users can configure 4- or 8-point linearization tables or 16-/32-segment piecewise-linear curves, set discontinuity points, enable scaling, and adjust gain parameters - all stored in on-chip NVRAM for persistent operation after power cycle.
