Product details
Overview
MLX90374GDC-ABC-300-RE from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® Hall-based magnetic position processor IC for absolute rotary and linear position sensing. It delivers dual-output PWM or SENT + programmable switch signals, supports AEC-Q100 Grade 0 (−40°C to +160°C), achieves ±0.3° angular accuracy in legacy mode, and integrates on-chip DSP for stray-field-immune operation in automotive throttle and pedal position systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90374GDC-ABC-300-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its SOIC-8 package compatibility, dual-output redundancy architecture, ISO26262 ASIL-C safety element out of context compliance, SENT SAE J2716 APR2016 support, and programmable piecewise linear transfer characteristic with up to 32 points.
Technical Context
The MLX90374GDC-ABC-300-RE uses Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal magnetic field components (Bx, By, Bz), enabling absolute angle decoding from 0° to 360° or linear displacement without mechanical contact. Its integrated DSP performs real-time signal conditioning, FIR filtering (FIR11/FIR1111), and diagnostics including intelligent and absolute watchdogs with 20 ms timeout.
This variant operates in Standard/Legacy Mode (Option Code -300), supporting both dual PWM and SENT+switch output configurations. It features factory-programmable memory (NVRAM) for calibration data, 48-bit ID, and configurable diagnostic cycle times (DCTANA = 34 ms, DCTDIG = 20 ms), with safe startup time of 11.2–12.4 ms for ABC revision.
Key Specifications

| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V (regulated mode); enables stable operation in 5 V automotive domains with undervoltage lockout at 3.90–4.25 V. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +160°C; qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 for under-hood automotive use. |
| Output Configuration | Dual PWM or SENT + programmable switch; supports redundant signaling or enhanced serial diagnostics per SAE J2716 APR2016. |
| Angular Accuracy | ±0.3° typical (Standard/Legacy Mode); ensures high-fidelity position feedback in throttle and steering applications. |
| Startup Time | 6.60–6.99 ms (SENT); defines minimum system response latency after power-on before first valid angle output. |

| Package | SOIC-8 (RoHS); surface-mount compatible with standard PCB assembly and thermal performance validated to TJ ≤ 175°C. |
Pinout & Package
MLX90374GDC-ABC-300-RE uses the SOIC-8 package (8-pin, 150 mil width, RoHS-compliant). Pins Input (2) and Test (4) are internally grounded in application; unused pins must be connected to PCB ground for optimal EMC performance.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Main supply input (4.5–5.5 V); powers analog and digital blocks with internal regulation to 3.3 V on VDEC. |
| 2 | Input | Factory-test pin; internally grounded in application-must be tied to PCB ground for EMC robustness. |
| 3 | OUT2 | Second output terminal; configurable as PWM, SENT, or programmable switch depending on firmware settings. |
| 4 | Test | Factory-test pin; internally grounded in application-must be tied to PCB ground for EMC robustness. |
| 5 | OUT1 | First output terminal; primary signal path for PWM or SENT; supports redundant dual-output architectures. |
| 6 | VSS | Digital ground reference; separate from analog ground to minimize noise coupling into signal processing chain. |
| 7 | VDEC | Decoupling pin for internal 3.3 V analog regulator; requires 100 nF ceramic capacitor to VSS for stability. |
| 8 | VSS | Analog ground reference; isolated from digital ground to preserve ADC and Hall front-end SNR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® Hall Sensing | Measures Bx, By, Bz simultaneously to enable true 3D magnetic field analysis-eliminates need for external concentrators in many rotary/linear topologies. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar magnetic position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90375GDC-ABC-300-RE | Successor with extended SENT frame support (up to 40 bits), improved thermal drift (±0.15°), and faster startup (5.8 ms). | Targets next-gen ADAS ECUs requiring higher resolution and lower latency; not drop-in due to revised register map and calibration procedure. | Select when upgrading for tighter accuracy specs or future-proofing against obsolescence; requires firmware revalidation. |
| TAS5754MDAPR | TI Hall-effect sensor with single PWM output only; lacks SENT, programmable PWL, and ASIL-C safety documentation. | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial potentiometer replacement but not automotive safety-critical use. | Choose only for non-automotive linear/rotary feedback where dual-output redundancy and functional safety are unnecessary. |
Compared with MLX90374GDC-ABC-300-RE, the MLX90375 offers higher precision and faster response but demands design requalification, while the TAS5754MDAPR sacrifices safety compliance and configurability for lower BOM cost in non-automotive contexts.
