Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP from Melexis is an automotive-grade absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC based on Triaxis® Hall technology, housed in a robust DMP-4 dual-mold package with integrated decoupling capacitors. It delivers 12-bit analog or PWM output, supports programmable transfer characteristics, and operates across −40 °C to +150 °C for EGR valve, throttle, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its ratiometric analog/PWM dual-mode output, built-in diagnostics (open/short, over/under-voltage), thermal offset correction capability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP integrates a Triaxis® sensing die that measures all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) to compute absolute angular or linear position without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and piecewise-linear interpolation using up to 17 user-programmable points.
It features a 12-bit DAC-based analog output with 0.025%VDD/LSB resolution and a programmable PWM output (100–1000 Hz), both ratiometric to VDD. Internal diagnostics include field strength monitoring, output clamping, and broken-track detection via dedicated diagnostic bands aligned to 4% and 96% of VDD.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V nominal; withstands +24 V overvoltage and −12 V reverse polarity - enables direct battery connection in 12 V automotive systems. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0, suitable for engine bay and transmission-mounted applications. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit analog (0.025%VDD/LSB) and 12-bit PWM - provides sub-degree angular accuracy and deterministic timing for closed-loop control. |
| Magnetic Range | 10 mT to 70 mT (3 ranges); intrinsic angle linearity error ≤ ±1° (XY) or ±2.5° (XZ/YZ) - supports compact magnet designs with mechanical tolerance compensation. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short circuit, over/under-voltage, field strength, and broken-track detection - outputs fault flags within diagnostic bands (4% and 96% of VDD) for ASIL-B compatible system monitoring. |
| Package | DMP-4 dual-mold package with integrated ESD/EMC decoupling capacitors - eliminates need for external capacitors and PCB, enabling direct module integration into metal housings. |
| Refresh Rate | 275–305 μs - ensures <3.6 kHz sampling for high-dynamic-position feedback in fast-actuating systems like turbo vanes. |
Pinout & Package
DMP-4 is a 4-pin, leadframe-based dual-mold package with straight leads (STD1 configuration), RoHS-compliant, and optimized for direct soldering into metal sensor housings. Integrated decoupling capacitors reduce board-level EMC filtering requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: VSS | Ground reference | Dual ground terminal (pins 1 and 4) lowers impedance path for noise immunity and thermal dissipation in high-current transients. |
| 2: VDD | Power supply input | Accepts 4.5–5.5 V with ±24 V absolute max rating; internal regulator powers analog/digital blocks and protects against load dump. |
| 3: OUT | Programmable output | Configurable as ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz); supports push-pull or open-drain modes with programmable clamping levels. |
| 4: VSS | Ground reference | Second ground pin improves current return path symmetry and reduces common-mode noise coupling in noisy automotive environments. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D magnetic sensing | Measures BX, BY, BZ simultaneously to compute absolute angle or linear displacement without mechanical wipers or gears - enables contactless, wear-free operation. |
| Programmable transfer characteristic | Up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration stored in EEPROM - allows end-user compensation for magnet nonlinearity, air gap variation, and mechanical misalignment. |
| Dual-output mode selection | Hardware-configurable analog (ratiometric) or PWM output - simplifies interface to MCU ADCs or timer-capture peripherals without external signal conditioning. |
| On-board diagnostics | Real-time open/short, over/under-voltage, and field strength monitoring with fault flagging in defined voltage bands - supports ISO 26262 ASIL-B functional safety requirements. |
| Thermal offset correction | Compensates for temperature-induced zero-point drift in analog output path - maintains <±0.2%VDD thermal offset drift across full operating range. |
Applications
| Throttle Position Sensing | EGR Valve 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90364LVS-AED-201-SP | Standard production version (not "not recommended for new design"); identical DMP-4 package, pinout, and electrical specs; includes factory-trimmed calibration data. | Same automotive applications but with full long-term availability and updated firmware revision support. | Select AED-201 for new designs requiring guaranteed supply continuity and full Melexis technical documentation access. |
| MLX90365KGO-ABF-100-SP | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with same Triaxis® die; requires external decoupling capacitors and PCB; lacks integrated DMP-4 ESD/EMC capacitors. | Suitable for PCB-based modules where space permits external filtering and thermal management is less extreme. | Choose MLX90365 when layout flexibility, reworkability, or lower initial tooling cost outweighs the benefit of DMP-4's no-PCB integration. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP, the AED-201 offers assured lifecycle support and factory calibration, while the MLX90365KGO-ABF-100-SP trades DMP-4's ruggedness and integration for standard SMT manufacturability - making AED-201 the preferred drop-in upgrade and MLX90365 the alternative for PCB-centric architectures.

The MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP operates from −40 °C to +150 °C and is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified. This range covers under-hood locations such as throttle bodies, EGR valves, and turbo actuators. Its DMP-4 package and internal thermal offset correction ensure stable performance across the full span without external compensation circuits.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP support both analog and PWM output modes?
Yes, the MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP supports selectable ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and PWM (100–1000 Hz) outputs. The mode is configured via EEPROM programming during manufacturing or end-user calibration - no hardware change is required. Both outputs retain full 12-bit resolution and diagnostic coverage.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes, all MLX90364 DMP-4 variants - including ADB-201, AED-201, and AEE-201 - share identical 4-pin DMP-4 pinout (VSS–VDD–OUT–VSS), mechanical dimensions, and electrical interface. The ADB-201 differs only in factory programming and lifecycle status ("not recommended for new design"), not in physical or functional compatibility.
What diagnostics does the MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP provide?
The MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP provides open/short circuit detection on the output, over/under-voltage monitoring on VDD, field strength diagnostics, and broken-track detection (VSS/VDD disconnection). Fault states are signaled via voltage clamping in defined diagnostic bands (4% and 96% of VDD), enabling simple comparator-based ECU monitoring.
Can the MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP be used without a printed circuit board?
Yes - the MLX90364LVS-ADB-201-SP is designed for NoPCB module integration. Its DMP-4 package embeds up to four decoupling capacitors and is qualified for direct soldering into metal sensor housings. This eliminates the need for an intermediate PCB, reducing cost, size, and potential failure points in high-vibration automotive applications.
