Product details
Overview
MLX90374GVS-ABB-207-SP from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® Hall-based magnetic position processor IC for absolute linear position sensing in stray-field-immune configurations. It delivers dual PWM or SENT + programmable switch outputs, operates from -40°C to +160°C, features ISO26262 ASIL-C safety compliance, and supports 48-bit ID programming. It is used in automotive pedal and throttle position sensing where robust non-contact measurement is required.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90374GVS-ABB-207-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include DMP-4 package compatibility, linear stray-field immunity (-200 option code), trim-and-form STD3 2.00 lead configuration, SENT protocol compliance per SAE J2716 APR2016, and functional safety support for ASIL-C system integration.
Technical Context
The MLX90374GVS-ABB-207-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 position output without mechanical contact using external magnet assemblies.
This variant uses the DMP-4 PCB-less dual-mold package with pins OUT1, VSS, VDD, and OUT2; it implements SENT (SAE J2716 APR2016) plus programmable switch output mode or dual PWM, and supports user-programmable piecewise linear (PWL) transfer characteristics with up to 32 points. It includes integrated diagnostics, watchdog timers (IWD/AWD), and supply monitoring with PTC overvoltage detection.
