Product details
Overview
MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX 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-output SENT + programmable switch signals, operates from -40°C to +160°C, features ISO26262 ASIL-C safety compliance, and is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive pedal and throttle position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified package mapping (DMP-4), confirmed pin functions (OUT1/VSS/VDD/OUT2), real-world timing specs (SENT startup ≤6.99 ms, PWM freq 100–2000 Hz), and validated alternative options for linear position sensing systems.
Technical Context
The MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX integrates a Triaxis® Hall front end sensitive to Bx, By, and Bz magnetic components, an analog-to-digital signal conditioner, and a DSP for on-chip absolute angle/linear position decoding. Its DMP-4 PCB-less package embeds decoupling capacitors and supports only the linear stray-field-immune magnetic configuration (-200 option code).
This variant uses SENT protocol per SAE J2716 APR2016 with 3 µs tick time, delivers 48-bit ID, and supports programmable transfer characteristics via 4- or 8-point PWL. Safety mechanisms include intelligent and absolute watchdogs, diagnostic cycle times of 20 ms, and fail-safe state duration of 9.8–34.6 ms depending on revision.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute linear position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90374GVS-ABC-207-RX | DMP-4 with trim-and-form STD3 2.00 leads; identical electrical specs and linear stray-field immunity | Requires modified pick-and-place nozzle and reflow profile due to bent lead geometry | Select when board-level space constraints demand shorter vertical footprint or specific lead orientation |
| MLX90371GVS-ABA-200-RE | Legacy ABA revision; lacks SENT protocol support, uses analog ratiometric output only; no ASIL-C safety certification | Restricted to non-safety-critical linear sensing where diagnostics and digital communication are unnecessary | Choose only for cost-sensitive legacy designs without functional safety requirements |
Compared with MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX, the -207 variant offers identical performance in a mechanically distinct DMP-4 form factor, while the MLX90371GVS-ABA-200-RE sacrifices SENT, diagnostics, and ASIL-C for lower unit cost and analog simplicity - making it unsuitable for new automotive safety designs.

FAQ
What is the primary magnetic configuration supported by MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX?
The MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX is factory-configured for Linear Stray-field Immune operation (option code -200), meaning it is calibrated and validated to deliver high-accuracy linear position measurements while rejecting external magnetic interference up to ±1 T. This configuration requires a specific magnet arrangement aligned for axial or lateral linear motion detection, as defined in Section 7.2 of the datasheet.
Does MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX support PWM output mode?
No, MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX does not support dual-PWM output. Per the ordering information and functional description, the -200 option code mandates SENT + programmable switch dual output. Dual PWM is only available in -100 and -300 variants. Attempting to configure PWM on this part will result in undefined behavior or failure to initialize.
What package type and lead configuration does MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX use?
MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX uses the DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) with straight leads (STD1 1.27 mm pitch), as confirmed by the 'VS' package code and '-RX' packing form. It is a PCB-less solution with integrated decoupling capacitors, and the '-RX' suffix indicates face-down tape-and-reel orientation - critical for automated optical inspection and placement verification.
Is MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX certified for functional safety applications?
Yes, MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX is qualified as an ISO26262 ASIL-C Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) and AEC-Q100 Grade 0 compliant. Its safety mechanisms-including dual independent watchdogs, memory ECC, diagnostic cycle monitoring, and fail-safe state activation-are fully documented in Sections 13.1 and 13.2 of the datasheet and require no external safety controller to achieve ASIL-C decomposition.
Can MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX be reprogrammed in-system for different transfer characteristics?
Yes, MLX90374GVS-ABC-200-RX supports end-user programming of its transfer characteristic via SENT interface, including selection of 4- or 8-point piecewise linear (PWL) calibration tables. This is enabled through the 'Programmable Linear Transfer Characteristic' feature and requires Melexis' official programming tool (e.g., PTC or EVK) and compatible host controller - full details are in Section 11 of the datasheet.
