Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE 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-203-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations 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-203-RE integrates a Triaxis® sensing die measuring 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 supports multi-point piecewise-linear programming of output transfer functions.
It features dual-output architecture: a 12-bit ratiometric analog output (0–100% VDD) and a programmable 100–1000 Hz PWM output, both with 12-bit resolution and independent diagnostic paths. Internal protection includes overvoltage (24 V), reverse voltage (−12 V), and thermal offset correction (AxE version only - not applicable to ADB-203).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; withstands +24 V overvoltage and −12 V reverse polarity - enables direct battery connection in 12 V automotive systems. |
| Output Modes | Ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz); selectable via EEPROM - eliminates need for external signal conditioning. |
| Resolution & Accuracy | 12-bit output resolution; ±1° typical intrinsic angle linearity error (XY axis); 10-bit thermal accuracy - ensures stable position reporting across full automotive temperature range. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short circuit detection, over/under-voltage monitoring, broken-track diagnostics (VDD/VSS), and configurable field-strength alerts - meets ASIL-B functional safety requirements. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C ambient; AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified - validated for direct mounting on engine-integrated actuators without heatsinking. |
| Magnetic Range | Normal operation at 20–70 mT; extended ranges down to 10 mT supported with calibrated gain/offset - accommodates diverse magnet sizes and air gaps. |
| Package | DMP-4 dual-mold package with integrated ESD/EMC decoupling capacitors; no PCB required - reduces module BOM and improves mechanical robustness in vibration-prone environments. |
Pinout & Package
DMP-4 is a 4-pin, surface-mount dual-mold package with straight leads (STD2 2.54 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, and designed for direct integration into sensing modules without PCB. The package embeds up to four internal decoupling capacitors to meet stringent automotive EMC requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog and digital domains; dual VSS pins provide low-impedance return path and improve noise immunity. |
| 2 | VDD | Power supply input (4.5–5.5 V); includes overvoltage (24 V) and reverse-voltage (−12 V) protection - enables direct connection to vehicle battery rail. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output terminal supporting ratiometric analog or PWM signals; push-pull or open-drain capable - interfaces directly with MCU ADC or timer capture inputs. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground terminal; complements Pin 1 to reduce ground loop impedance and enhance ESD/EMI resilience in high-noise environments. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Hall Sensing | Measures BX, BY, BZ simultaneously to compute absolute angle or linear displacement - enables single-sensor solutions for rotary and linear motion without mechanical cams or gears. |
| Programmable Transfer Function | Up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration stored in EEPROM - allows end-user compensation for magnet nonlinearity, mechanical tolerances, and temperature drift without hardware changes. |
| Dual-Mode Output | Selectable ratiometric analog or PWM output with identical 12-bit resolution - simplifies system design by supporting legacy potentiometer replacement and modern digital control loops. |
| Integrated Diagnostics | Real-time open/short, over/under-voltage, and broken-track detection with configurable alert levels - reduces need for external monitoring circuitry and supports ISO 26262 diagnostic coverage goals. |
| DMP-4 No-PCB Integration | Self-contained module with embedded decoupling capacitors and molded leadframe - eliminates PCB assembly step, lowers module cost, and improves reliability in high-vibration applications. |
Applications

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-203-RE | Standard production version (AED) vs. legacy ADB variant; identical electrical specs but AED has updated trimming and longer lifecycle support. | Same DMP-4 package, pinout, and functionality; AED-203 replaces ADB-203 in new designs per Melexis documentation. | Select AED-203 for new designs; ADB-203 is marked "not recommended for new design" in official ordering table. |
| MLX90365KGO-ABD-100-SP | SOIC-8 packaged Triaxis® sensor with same core die but external decoupling required; lacks integrated DMP-4 capacitors and No-PCB integration. | Suitable for PCB-mounted applications where space permits discrete capacitor placement; not drop-in for DMP-4 module integration. | Choose MLX90365 only when board-level assembly is preferred and ESD/EMC filtering can be implemented externally. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE, the AED-203 offers identical performance with enhanced manufacturability and long-term availability, while the MLX90365 requires PCB layout changes and external passive components - making AED-203 the preferred upgrade path and MLX90365 a fallback for board-based implementations.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE is rated for −40 °C to +150 °C ambient temperature and qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 0. This specification is validated across all electrical parameters including output accuracy, refresh rate, and diagnostic functionality - enabling direct mounting on engine-integrated actuators such as throttle bodies and EGR valves without derating.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE support both analog and PWM outputs simultaneously?
No, the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE supports either ratiometric analog or PWM output mode, selected during factory programming or end-user configuration via EEPROM. Both modes deliver 12-bit resolution and share the same OUT pin; simultaneous dual-output operation is not supported in the ADB-203 variant.
Is thermal offset correction available in the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE?
No, thermal output offset correction is only available in AEE-version variants (e.g., AEE-203) per Melexis documentation. The ADB-203 uses standard front-end calibration and relies on DSP-based thermal drift compensation - providing ±60 LSB15 thermal offset drift over −40 °C to +125 °C, sufficient for most automotive position sensing applications.
What package type does the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE use, and why is it significant?
The MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE uses the DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) - a 4-pin, leadframe-based surface-mount module integrating the Triaxis® die and up to four decoupling capacitors. This eliminates the need for a PCB in sensing modules, reducing cost, size, and failure points while improving EMC performance and mechanical robustness in high-vibration environments.
Can the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE replace a traditional potentiometer in throttle position applications?
Yes, the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-RE provides a ratiometric analog output (0–100% VDD) fully compatible with existing potentiometer interface circuits. Its contactless operation eliminates mechanical wear, and built-in diagnostics (open/short, over/under-voltage) exceed potentiometer reliability - making it a direct, drop-in replacement in validated ECU designs.
