Product details
Overview
MLX90374GVS-ABB-300-SP from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® Hall-based magnetic position processor IC for absolute rotary and linear position sensing. It delivers dual-output SENT + programmable switch signals, operates from -40°C to +160°C, features ISO26262 ASIL-C safety compliance, and supports stray-field immune angular/linear configurations per ABB-300 option code. It enables non-contacting throttle, pedal, and steering wheel position sensing in automotive powertrain and chassis systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90374GVS-ABB-300-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified package mapping (DMP-4), confirmed dual-output timing modes (SENT + switch), functional safety context (ASIL-C SEooC), magnetic accuracy specs (±0.5° typical angle error in legacy mode), and real-world substitution guidance aligned with Melexis' official ordering matrix.
Technical Context
The MLX90374GVS-ABB-300-SP integrates a Triaxis® Hall front end sensitive to Bx, By, and Bz magnetic components, an analog signal conditioner, a DSP for advanced angle computation, and a dual-output driver stage. Its DMP-4 package embeds decoupling capacitors (C1, C4 = 10 nF) and uses a 3-pin supply/output configuration optimized for PCB-less mounting.
This ABB-300 variant implements the "Legacy / Angular Rotary / Linear position" magnetic configuration with standard stray-field tolerance (not stray-field immune). It supports SENT SAE J2716 APR2016 with 3 µs tick time and programmable switch output-distinct from ABC-300's enhanced diagnostics and safe startup features.
Key Specifications

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-300-SP | ABC revision adds safe startup (TSafeStup = 11.2 ms), enhanced diagnostics, and improved EMI immunity vs. ABB. | Required for new designs targeting full ISO26262 ASIL-C integration; not drop-in due to different startup behavior and memory map. | Select ABC-300 for new automotive programs requiring latest safety features and long-term support; ABB-300 remains valid for legacy production continuity. |
| MLX90363GSE-AAA-000-SP | Single-output SENT-only device (no switch), SOIC-8 package, lower current (7.5 mA), no ASIL-C certification. | Suitable for cost-sensitive non-safety-critical applications like HVAC flap control or seat position where dual output is unnecessary. | Choose MLX90363 for simplified interface and lower system cost where programmable switch and ASIL-C are not required. |
Compared with MLX90374GVS-ABB-300-SP, the ABC-300 offers stronger functional safety readiness and diagnostic depth but requires firmware adaptation for safe startup sequencing, while the MLX90363 sacrifices redundancy and safety certification for reduced footprint and bill-of-materials cost in non-critical subsystems.
