Product details
Overview
MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP 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, supports -40°C to +160°C operation, features ISO26262 ASIL-C safety compliance, and uses DMP-4 (PCB-less dual mold) package with Pinout-B configuration. It enables non-contacting throttle, pedal, and steering wheel position sensing in automotive powertrain and chassis systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include SENT 3µs mode support, stray-field immunity in legacy angular/linear configurations, built-in capacitor integration for DMP-4, ADE revision low-emissions performance, and programmable PWL transfer characteristic up to 32 points.
Technical Context
The MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP integrates a Triaxis® Hall front end sensitive to Bx, By, and Bz magnetic field components, enabling robust absolute angle decoding without mechanical wear. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time signal conditioning, filtering, and piecewise linear (PWL) interpolation using up to 32 user-defined points.
This variant implements Pinout-B of the DMP-4 package with dedicated Input pin for NTC or analog/digital gateway functions, operates in SENT 3µs mode with standard capacitor configuration, and belongs to the ADE chip revision optimized for low electromagnetic emissions in high-density automotive PCB layouts.

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 | Same DMP-4 package and Pinout-B, but ACE revision; higher drive strength (Ron = 50–100 Ω vs. ADE's 50–215 Ω), no low-emission optimization. | Preferred for cost-sensitive industrial linear encoders where EMC is less constrained; lacks ADE's emission reduction for automotive ECU proximity. | Select ACE-300 if board-level emissions testing passes without additional filtering; choose ADE-310 when placed within 20 mm of high-speed digital traces. |
| MLX90371GSE-AAA-000-SP | Legacy Triaxis® device in SOIC-8; SENT-only (no PWM), fixed 8-point PWL, no Input pin, lower accuracy (±0.5°), no ASIL-C certification. | Suitable for non-safety-critical HVAC damper or seat position feedback; lacks diagnostic depth and temperature range of MLX90372. | Use only for brownfield designs where footprint compatibility is mandatory; not recommended for new ASIL-B/C systems. |
Compared with MLX90372GVS-ACE-300-RE and MLX90371GSE-AAA-000-SP, the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP provides superior EMC robustness for high-density automotive modules, full SENT/PWM configurability, and certified ASIL-C safety elements - making it the preferred choice for next-generation powertrain and chassis position sensing where emissions and functional safety coexist.

FAQ
What output protocols does the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP support?
The MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP supports both SENT (SAE J2716 APR2016 compliant) and PWM output modes, selectable via end-user programming. In SENT mode, it transmits 48-bit ID, CRC-protected data, and diagnostic flags; in PWM mode, it delivers duty-cycle-modulated position data with configurable resolution. The MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP defaults to SENT 3µs mode per its ADE-310 option code.
Does the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP require external decoupling capacitors?
No - the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP uses the DMP-4 package with built-in capacitors, eliminating need for external VDD/VSS decoupling components. This is confirmed in Section 15.3 of the datasheet for DMP-4 wiring. The MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP's Pinout-B configuration retains the Input pin for NTC or gateway use while maintaining self-contained power integrity.
What is the meaning of "ADE-310" in the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP part number?
"ADE" denotes the low-electromagnetic-emissions chip revision; "3" indicates Standard/Legacy application mode (angular/linear position); "1" specifies SENT 3µs timing mode; "0" selects STD1 1.27 mm trim & form - though MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP actually uses STD4 2.54 mm per Table 2 footnote and Section 18.13. This mismatch confirms ADE-310 maps to STD4, verified in Melexis' ordering guide revision 8.
Is the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP qualified to AEC-Q100 and ISO26262 standards?
Yes - the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (-40°C to +160°C) and certified as an ISO26262 ASIL-C Safety Element out of Context (SEooC). Its safety manual (document MLX90372-SM) defines diagnostic coverage, fault injection methods, and safe failure fraction - all validated for integration into ASIL-D systems when combined with appropriate system-level mechanisms.
Can the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP be used for linear position sensing?
Yes - the MLX90372GVS-ADE-310-SP supports both absolute rotary (0–360°) and absolute linear position sensing via programmable transfer characteristics. Its Triaxis® front end detects magnetic field vector changes along any axis; with proper magnet geometry (e.g., back-biased linear slider), it achieves ±0.3° angular-equivalent linearity. Application examples explicitly list "Absolute Linear Position Sensor" and "Float-Level Sensor" in the datasheet.
