Product details
Overview
MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE from Melexis is a Triaxis® monolithic magnetic position sensor IC for absolute linear position sensing with stray field immunity up to 5 mT. It integrates a 3-axis Hall front end, DSP-based signal conditioning, and programmable SENT/PWM/ratiometric analog output. Designed for automotive pedal and throttle position sensing at -40°C to +160°C.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified package mapping (SMP-3), confirmed output timing (SENT startup ≤6.26 ms), functional safety compliance (ASIL-C for SENT), stray-field robustness (≤5 mT), and exact pin definitions for PCB layout and system integration.
Technical Context
The MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure Bx, By, and Bz components simultaneously, enabling absolute linear position decoding in stray magnetic fields up to 5 mT. Its on-chip DSP supports user-programmable transfer characteristics (12–16 points) and configurable filtering levels (0–2).
This variant is pre-programmed for linear stray field robust operation (-2xx option code) and SENT output per SAE J2716 APR2016, with ASIL-C functional safety certification. It uses the SMP-3 PCB-less single-mold package with integrated decoupling and operates across 4.5–5.5 V supply voltage.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90423GDC-ACA-230-RE | SOIC-8 package; dual test/N.C. pins; requires external decoupling; higher thermal resistance than SMP-3 | Preferred where legacy SOIC footprint or manual assembly is required; less compact than SMP-3 | Select for prototyping or designs needing standard surface-mount compatibility over minimal size |
| MLX90423GGO-ACA-230-RE | TSSOP-16 dual-die package; full hardware redundancy; isolation resistance >4 MΩ between dice; 2× supply current | Required for ASIL-D systems or safety-critical steering/brake applications demanding fault-tolerant architecture | Select when dual-channel redundancy and inter-die isolation are mandated by system-level safety goals |
Compared with MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE, the SOIC-8 variant offers easier rework and broader layout flexibility but larger footprint and higher thermal impedance, while the TSSOP-16 provides hardware-level fault tolerance at the cost of doubled current draw and PCB area - making the SMP-3 optimal for space-constrained, high-volume automotive modules requiring ASIL-C compliance without redundancy overhead.

FAQ
What output protocol is pre-configured on the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE?
The MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE is factory-programmed for SENT output per SAE J2716 APR2016, including Secure Sensor format with CRC, error codes, and user-defined data fields. It supports reprogramming to PWM or ratiometric analog via EEPROM, but SENT is the default and certified ASIL-C mode.
Does the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE require external decoupling capacitors?
No - the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE uses the SMP-3 package with integrated decoupling capacitance, eliminating the need for external VDD/VSS bypass capacitors. This reduces bill-of-materials count and PCB area while maintaining stable internal regulation (VDEC = 3.3 V ±0.1 V).
What is the maximum stray magnetic field the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE can tolerate in linear mode?
The MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE is rated for stray field robustness up to 5 mT (4 kA/m) per ISO 11452-8 in its pre-programmed linear mode (-2xx option code), ensuring accurate position measurement even when installed near motors, solenoids, or high-current conductors.
Is the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE qualified for automotive under-hood use?
Yes - the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (-40°C to +160°C ambient), ISO 26262 SEooC certified, and ASIL-C compliant for SENT output. Its SMP-3 package and internal thermal design support continuous operation in engine bay environments.
How many programmable points does the linear transfer characteristic support on the MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE?
MLX90423GVE-ACA-230-RE supports 12 to 16 user-programmable points for its linear transfer characteristic, stored in on-chip NVRAM. This enables precise custom calibration of position-to-output mapping without external compensation circuitry or host MCU intervention.
