Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-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 throttle, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, application-specific implementation value, and two confirmed alternative options for automotive position-sensing designs.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP integrates a Triaxis® die sensitive to all three magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) enabling absolute angular (0–360°) or linear position decoding without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP computes position via CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion and supports user-programmable 4- or 17-point piecewise-linear transfer curves.
It features dual-output capability-ratiometric analog (12-bit DAC) and PWM (100–1000 Hz, ±1% initial tolerance)-with built-in diagnostics including open/short detection, over/under-voltage monitoring, and thermal offset correction. The DMP-4 package embeds up to four decoupling capacitors for AEC-Q100-compliant ESD/EMC robustness.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-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 where ambient temperatures exceed 125 °C during sustained operation. Its thermal offset correction ensures stable output across the full span.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP require an external PCB?
No - the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP uses Melexis' DMP-4 Dual Mold Package, which integrates the Triaxis® die and up to four decoupling capacitors into a single molded module. This eliminates the need for an external PCB, reducing system cost, size, and potential failure points in vibration-prone automotive modules.
How is output mode selected on the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP?
Output mode (analog ratiometric or PWM) is configured via EEPROM programming using Melexis' PTM or EVB90364 tools. The MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP supports both modes simultaneously in hardware; only the programmed mode is active after power-up. No external components or pin strapping are needed.
What diagnostic capabilities does the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP provide?
The MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP includes open/short circuit detection on the output, over/under-voltage monitoring on VDD, magnetic field strength diagnostics, and thermal offset tracking. Diagnostic states are reported via dedicated output levels or clamping bands, supporting ASIL-B functional safety requirements without external supervision.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes - all MLX90364 DMP-4 variants (including ADB-, ADD-, AED-, AEE- prefixes) share identical 4-pin DMP-4 pinout and mechanical footprint. The MLX90364LVS-ADB-203-SP differs only in factory-programmed parameters (e.g., transfer curve, filter settings, diagnostics), not electrical or physical interface.
