Product details
Overview
MLX90374GVS-ABB-307-SP from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® magnetic position processor IC for absolute rotary and linear position sensing. It integrates a 3-axis Hall front end, DSP-based signal conditioning, and dual-output drivers delivering SENT plus programmable switch signals. Operating from −40°C to +160°C with AEC-Q100 qualification and ISO 26262 ASIL-C safety compliance, it enables non-contacting throttle, pedal, and steering wheel position sensing in automotive powertrain and chassis systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90374GVS-ABB-307-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include DMP-4 package compatibility, stray-field immune legacy mode (−300 option code), SENT protocol compliance per SAE J2716 APR2016, dual-output fault reporting, and programmable transfer characteristics using up to 32-point PWL calibration.
Technical Context
The MLX90374GVS-ABB-307-SP implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure Bx, By, and Bz components simultaneously, enabling robust absolute angle decoding from 0° to 360° or linear displacement without mechanical wear. Its on-chip DSP supports programmable piecewise linear (PWL) transfer functions-up to 32 points-and configurable diagnostics including intelligent and absolute watchdogs with 20 ms timeout.
This variant uses the DMP-4 PCB-less package with STD3 2.00 trim-and-form leads and operates in legacy angular/linear mode (option code −307). It delivers SENT output with 3 µs tick time and a programmable switch function, not dual PWM. The internal 24 MHz main clock exhibits ±2% thermal drift and supports SENT synchronous acquisition with two angles per frame.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
