Product details

Overview

MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-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 throttle, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.

For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE 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-ADD-201-RE integrates a Triaxis® sensing die with on-chip DSP, EEPROM, and a 12-bit DAC/PWM output stage. Its 3-axis magnetic field measurement (B_X, B_Y, B_Z) enables absolute angular or linear position decoding without external PCBs, using only a moving magnet and simple magnetic circuit.

It features programmable multi-point piecewise-linear transfer functions, selectable filter settings (0–2) affecting step response time (657–1494 μs), and configurable diagnostics including field strength monitoring, PWM diagnostic mode, and broken-track detection via VDD/VSS line integrity checks.

FAQ

What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE?

The MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE is rated for −40 °C to +150 °C ambient operation and qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 0. This enables direct mounting in high-temperature engine compartments for throttle, EGR, and turbo applications without derating or external cooling. Its internal thermal offset correction maintains analog output stability across this full range.

Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE require an external PCB?

No - the MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE uses Melexis' DMP-4 Dual Mold Package, which integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors into a single molded module. This eliminates the need for an external PCB in sensor assemblies, reducing cost, size, and potential failure points in automotive position sensing modules.

What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE support?

The MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE supports two user-selectable output modes: ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Both modes are fully configurable via EEPROM programming and retain diagnostics, making it compatible with legacy potentiometer interfaces and modern noise-immune digital controllers.

How does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE handle diagnostics and fault reporting?

The MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE includes on-chip diagnostics for open/short circuit, over-voltage (+24 V), under-voltage (2.25–2.5 V POR), and broken-track detection on VDD/VSS lines. Diagnostic states are reported via dedicated output levels or clamping bands in analog mode, meeting ASIL-B requirements without external supervision circuitry.

Is the MLX90364LVS-ADD-201-RE pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?

Yes - all MLX90364 DMP-4 variants (including ADD-, AED-, and AEE-suffix parts) share identical DMP-4 pinout (VSS-VDD-OUT-VSS), package dimensions, and electrical interface. The ADD-201 differs only in production status ("not recommended for new design") and minor internal trim; functional compatibility with AED-201 is confirmed by Melexis' ordering documentation.
