Product details
Overview
MLX90372GVS-ACE-208-RE from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® Hall-based magnetic position processor IC for absolute rotary and linear position sensing. It delivers SENT or PWM output, operates from -40°C to +160°C, features ISO26262 ASIL-C safety certification, and uses a PCB-less DMP-4 package with Pinout-B configuration for compact automotive sensor modules.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90372GVS-ACE-208-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified functional context, validated DMP-4 Pinout-B terminal mapping, confirmed stray-field immune angular/linear operation, and real-world selection guidance against comparable Melexis position processors.
Technical Context
The MLX90372GVS-ACE-208-RE implements Triaxis® sensing-measuring Bx, By, and Bz components-to compute absolute angle (0–360°) or linear displacement without mechanical contact. Its DSP performs on-chip signal conditioning, piecewise linear (PWL) transfer function calibration (up to 32 points), and SENT frame encoding per SAE J2716 APR2016.
This variant uses DMP-4 Pinout-B (VSS/VDD/OUT/Input), supports SENT 3µs mode with built-in capacitors, and is configured for angular/linear position applications (-208 option code). It includes dual diagnostics (IWD/AWD), programmable overvoltage/undervoltage detection, and robust EMC behavior via grounded unused pins.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar magnetic position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90372GVS-ACE-300-RE | Legacy angular/linear mode (-300), no stray-field immunity optimization - higher susceptibility to external magnetic interference. | Used where magnetic environment is controlled (e.g., interior cabin sensors); lacks -208's field rejection tuning. | Select only if legacy calibration compatibility is required and stray fields are absent. |
| MLX90372GVS-ACE-108-RE | Angular rotary stray-field immune, low-field variant (-108) - optimized for weak magnetic fields (<10 mT) and minimal magnet size. | Preferred for compact throttle bodies or small-diameter steering columns where magnet strength is constrained. | Choose when magnet volume or field strength is limited; not suitable for high-field linear applications. |
Compared with MLX90372GVS-ACE-208-RE, the -300 variant offers broader legacy compatibility but reduced stray-field resilience, while the -108 variant trades linear position support for superior low-field angular sensitivity-making the -208 the optimal choice for dual-mode (rotary/linear), high-immunity automotive deployments.
