It delivers dual PWM or SENT + programmable switch outputs, operates from -40°C to 160°C, features ISO26262 ASIL-C safety compliance, and supports AEC-Q100 qualification. Used in automotive pedal and throttle position sensing where robustness against external magnetic interference is critical.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified functional context, DMP-4 package terminal mapping, timing-critical output specifications (PWM/SENT), stray-field-immune linear position accuracy data, and validated alternative options for automotive sensor design.
Technical Context
The MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP integrates a Triaxis® Hall front end sensitive to Bx, By, and Bz magnetic components, an analog-to-digital signal conditioner, and a DSP for real-time angle/position decoding. Its architecture enables absolute linear displacement measurement with stray-field immunity via optimized magnetic circuit design.
This variant uses the DMP-4 PCB-less package with built-in decoupling capacitors (C1, C4 = 10 nF), supports SENT SAE J2716 APR2016 protocol with 3 µs tick time, and implements configurable diagnostics including intelligent and absolute watchdogs with 20 ms timeout.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar magnetic position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-SP | ABC revision adds safe startup sequence, enhanced diagnostics, and updated SENT timing parameters not present in ABB. | Required for new designs targeting full ASIL-C compliance; ABB lacks COLD_SAFE_STARTUP_EN and updated DCTDIG values. | Select ABC-200 for production programs requiring latest safety features and long-term support. |
| MLX90371GVS-ABB-200-SP | Single-output version (PWM only); no SENT capability; reduced DSP resources and memory; lower current draw (7.5 mA typ). | Suitable for cost-sensitive linear position applications without diagnostic or serial communication requirements. | Choose MLX90371 when dual-output redundancy or SENT protocol is unnecessary and BOM cost is critical. |
Compared with MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP, the ABC-200 offers verified safe startup and expanded diagnostics essential for ASIL-C integration, while the MLX90371GVS-ABB-200-SP trades serial capability and redundancy for lower power and cost in simpler control loops.

FAQ
What is the primary magnetic sensing technology used in the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP?
The MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP uses Melexis' proprietary Triaxis® Hall technology, which detects all three orthogonal components (Bx, By, Bz) of the applied magnetic flux density. This enables true 3D position decoding for both rotary and linear motion without requiring precise magnet alignment, and is fundamental to the stray-field immunity of the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP in automotive environments.
Does the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP support SENT protocol, and what version is implemented?
Yes, the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP supports SENT output compliant with SAE J2716 APR2016. It delivers enhanced serial messages containing error codes, status flags, and user-defined data fields. The device supports both normal (3 µs tick) and fast (1.5 µs tick) SENT modes, with configurable frame length and multi-angle per frame options - all confirmed in the official datasheet for the ABB revision.
What package type does the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP use, and how does it differ from SOIC-8 variants?
The MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP uses the DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) - a PCB-less, 4-terminal surface-mount package with integrated 10 nF decoupling capacitors. Unlike the SOIC-8 variant, DMP-4 eliminates PCB routing complexity, improves thermal performance, and enhances EMC immunity by reducing loop area. Pinout is simplified to VDD, VSS, OUT1, and OUT2 - confirmed in Section 3.2 of the datasheet.
Is the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP qualified for automotive applications, and what standards does it meet?
Yes, the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP is AEC-Q100 qualified for Grade 0 (-40°C to +160°C) and certified as an ISO26262 ASIL-C Safety Element out of Context (SEooC). These qualifications are explicitly stated in the datasheet Features section and validated through Melexis' functional safety manual, making the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP suitable for safety-critical automotive position sensing functions.
What is the accuracy specification for linear position sensing with the MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP?
The MLX90374GVS-ABB-200-SP is specified for linear position sensing with ±0.3° typical integral non-linearity (INL) under stray-field-immune conditions, as documented in Section 8.3 ("Linear Stray-field Immune Mode") of the datasheet. This accuracy applies specifically to the -200 option code and is measured across full scale with calibrated magnet geometry and proper thermal management.
