Product details
Overview
MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® Hall-based absolute position sensor IC in SMP-3 package, operating from -40°C to 160°C, delivering 12-bit SENT output with 3 μs tick time, ASIL-C functional safety capability, and stray-field immune standard/legacy magnetic configuration.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SMP-3 terminal mapping, automotive-grade SENT interface behavior, and validated alternatives for pedal, throttle, and steering position sensing designs.
Technical Context
The MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP implements Triaxis® Hall sensing of Bx, By, and Bz magnetic field components to compute absolute angular or linear position without contact. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time signal conditioning, piecewise-linearization (up to 32 segments), and SENT frame encoding per SAE J2716 APR2016.
This variant uses Standard/Legacy Mode (-3xx option code) with SENT output only (ADB-330), fixed 3 μs tick time, and SMP-3 single-die packaging - enabling compact, high-reliability non-contact sensing in constrained PCB spaces where DMP-4 or SOIC-8 are impractical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Protocol | SENT (SAE J2716 APR2016), 12-bit resolution, 3 μs tick time - enables deterministic, error-coded digital position reporting compatible with automotive ECU receivers. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +160°C - supports under-hood and transmission-integrated placement in passenger and commercial vehicles. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V (regulated) or 6 V to 18 V (battery) - accommodates both stable rail and direct vehicle battery operation with reverse polarity protection. |
| Functional Safety | ISO 26262 ASIL-C capable for SENT output mode - certified Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) for use in safety-critical subsystems without additional hardware redundancy. |
| Magnetic Sensing | Triaxis® 3D Hall front-end measuring Bx, By, Bz - enables robust absolute position decoding from rotating or linear magnets with immunity to planar stray fields. |
| Accuracy | ±0.3° typical angular accuracy in Standard/Legacy Mode - ensures precise throttle or pedal angle feedback for closed-loop engine and brake control. |
| Package | SMP-3 (single-mold, PCB-less) - 3-pin surface-mount package with integrated decoupling, optimized for space-constrained automotive sensors and reduced BOM count. |
Pinout & Package
SMP-3 is a 3-pin, PCB-less single-mold package with integrated capacitors, designed for direct magnet-side mounting in rotary or linear position assemblies. Pin 1 = VDD (supply), Pin 2 = OUT (SENT open-drain output), Pin 3 = VSS (ground); INPUT and TEST terminals are internal test points not brought out to package pins.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VDD) | Power supply input | Accepts 4.5–18 V; includes reverse-polarity and overvoltage protection - eliminates need for external TVS or diode in battery-fed applications. |
| 2 (OUT) | SENT serial output | Open-drain driver compliant with SAE J2716; requires external pull-up (10–55 kΩ); supports diagnostic nibbles and CRC-protected position data. |
| 3 (VSS) | Ground reference | Low-impedance return path; used for broken-wire detection (BVSSPU/BVSSPD diagnostics) - enables fail-safe reporting of ground loss. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Hall sensing | Measures full 3-axis magnetic vector to resolve absolute position from magnet motion - eliminates need for dual-sensor differential arrangements or mechanical wipers. |
| Programmable transfer characteristic | Configurable 4-, 8-, 16-, or 32-point piecewise-linearization stored in NVRAM - allows precise calibration to non-uniform magnetic fields without host MCU intervention. |
| SENT protocol compliance | Full SAE J2716 APR2016 implementation with status & communication nibble (SCN), CRC, and configurable message content - meets OEM requirements for diagnostic-rich position reporting. |
| Stray-field immunity | Standard/Legacy Mode (-3xx) provides inherent rejection of orthogonal magnetic interference - maintains accuracy near motors, solenoids, or adjacent sensors without shielding. |
| Integrated diagnostics | Active (short/open circuit) and passive (broken VDD/VSS) fault detection with dedicated output levels - enables real-time health monitoring without external comparators or ADC sampling. |
Applications
| Pedal Position Sensing | Throttle Position Sensing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90377GDC-ADB-330-RE | SOIC-8 package, 3000 pcs/reel, same SENT output mode and -3xx magnetic configuration | Requires larger PCB footprint and external decoupling; suited for prototyping or legacy board reuse | Select when existing SOIC-8 layout exists or when higher thermal mass is needed for extended high-temp soak testing. |
| MLX90377GO-ADB-330-RE | TSSOP-16 dual-die package with inter-die isolation, same SENT output and -3xx mode | Provides full redundancy for ASIL-D systems; requires two independent output channels and isolation-aware layout | Select only when dual-channel fault-tolerant architecture is mandated - not a drop-in replacement for SMP-3. |
Compared with MLX90377GDC-ADB-330-RE and MLX90377GO-ADB-330-RE, the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP offers the smallest form factor and integrated decoupling for space-constrained modules, while retaining identical SENT protocol behavior, accuracy, and ASIL-C capability - making it optimal for new compact sensor designs where board area and component count are critical.

FAQ
What output protocol does the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP support?
The MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP supports SENT output only, configured per ADB-330 option code with 3 μs tick time and full SAE J2716 APR2016 compliance. It does not support analog, PWM, or SPC modes - output protocol is factory-fixed and not reprogrammable in the field.
Is the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP pin-compatible with other MLX90377 variants?
No - the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP uses the 3-pin SMP-3 package, which has different pin count, layout, and terminal assignment than SOIC-8 (8-pin), TSSOP-16 (16-pin), or DMP-4 (4-pin) variants. Direct PCB replacement requires redesign; only functional equivalence is maintained across packages.
Does the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP require external decoupling capacitors?
No - the SMP-3 package integrates decoupling capacitance internally. The MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP operates reliably with only the three external connections (VDD, OUT, VSS); no external ceramic capacitors are needed, reducing BOM count and board area.
What is the functional safety qualification of the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP?
The MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP is ISO 26262 ASIL-C capable for SENT output mode as a Safety Element out of Context (SEooC). This qualification covers fault detection, diagnostic coverage, and safe state behavior - but system-level ASIL decomposition and integration validation remain the responsibility of the end customer.
Can the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP be used in linear position sensing applications?
Yes - the MLX90377GVE-ADB-330-SP supports both absolute rotary and linear position sensing via Triaxis® 3D Hall technology. In Standard/Legacy Mode (-3xx), it accurately resolves magnet displacement along an axis or rotation through 360°, with programmable linearization to match custom magnetic circuit geometry.
