Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE from Melexis is an AEC-Q100 qualified 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, 10-bit thermal accuracy, open/short diagnostics, and operates across −40 °C to +150 °C for automotive throttle and EGR valve position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified functional context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin roles, and confirmed alternative options for automotive position-sensing systems requiring high EMC immunity and no-PCB integration.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE integrates a Triaxis® die sensitive to all three magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ), enabling absolute angular decoding up to 360° or linear stroke measurement without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP computes position using CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion and supports user-programmable piecewise-linear transfer characteristics with up to 17 calibration points.
It features dual-output capability-ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz)-with built-in diagnostics including over-voltage protection, under-voltage detection, thermal offset correction, and passive broken-track detection. The DMP-4 package embeds up to four decoupling capacitors for direct ESD/EMC compliance in harsh automotive environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; supports 24 V overvoltage tolerance for load-dump resilience in 12 V automotive systems. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit analog or PWM output; enables 0.025% VDD/LSB precision for high-fidelity position feedback in closed-loop control. |
| Magnetic Range | Operates from 10 mT to 70 mT; supports both normal (20–70 mT) and extended ranges (10–20 mT) with calibrated noise performance. |
| Accuracy (Angle) | ±0.3° typical XY-axis linearity error at 25 °C; intrinsic ±1° linearity after factory trim with SMISM calibration. |
| Thermal Drift | ±60 LSB15 thermal offset drift (−40 to 125 °C); translates to ≤±0.3° angular error when k = 1 in rotary applications. |
| Diagnostic Coverage | Includes open/short circuit, broken VDD/VSS, flux amplitude, and PWM diagnostic modes-enabling ASIL-B–compatible fault detection. |
| PWM Frequency | Programmable 100–1000 Hz; ±1% initial tolerance after EOL tuning ensures timing-critical engine control compatibility. |
Pinout & Package
Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) with straight leads (STD2 2.54 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, integrating sensing die and decoupling capacitors-eliminating need for external PCB in module-level assembly.
| 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 for EMC robustness. |
| 2 | VDD | 5 V supply input with −12 V reverse voltage protection and +24 V overvoltage tolerance for automotive battery transients. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output terminal supporting ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz); includes clamping and diagnostic signaling. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground pin; improves current return symmetry and reduces common-mode noise in noisy under-hood environments. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Hall Sensing | Simultaneous BX/BY/BZ measurement enables true 360° absolute angle or linear position without magnet rotation constraints. |
| Programmable Transfer Curve | Up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration allows precise matching to non-ideal mechanical travel profiles (e.g., throttle cam). |
| DMP-4 Integrated Capacitors | Four embedded decoupling capacitors meet ISO 11452-4 ESD and CISPR 25 Class 5 EMC requirements without external components. |
| No-PCB Module Integration | Self-contained DMP-4 assembly replaces traditional PCB-mounted sensors-reducing bill-of-materials and assembly steps in valve actuators. |
| On-Chip Thermal Offset Correction | Compensates for temperature-induced signal drift in real time, maintaining ≤±0.3° angular error across full −40 to +150 °C range. |

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; lacks thermal offset correction firmware (AxE variant) present in ADD-203-RE. | Suitable for ambient-stable applications where full −40 to +150 °C thermal compensation is not required. | Select ADD-203-RE when operating across full automotive temperature range with minimal angular drift. |
| MLX90365GOB-AAA-000-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with identical Triaxis® core but requires external decoupling and PCB layout for EMC compliance. | Used where board-level integration is preferred over module-level no-PCB assembly. | Choose MLX90365 when designing custom PCBs with space for discrete capacitors and routing flexibility. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RE, the ADD-203-RE provides active thermal offset correction for tighter angular accuracy across temperature extremes; versus MLX90365, it trades PCB footprint for out-of-box EMC readiness and simplified mechanical integration in sealed modules.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE is rated for −40 °C to +150 °C ambient operation and is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive powertrain applications. Its on-chip thermal offset correction ensures angular accuracy remains within ±0.3° across this full range, making it suitable for under-hood placement near engines and exhaust systems where thermal cycling is severe.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE require an external PCB for implementation?
No, the MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE uses Melexis' DMP-4 dual-mold package that integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors. This eliminates the need for an external PCB in module-level assemblies-enabling direct embedding into plastic housings for throttle bodies, EGR valves, and turbo actuators while meeting ISO 11452-4 ESD and CISPR 25 EMC requirements.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE support?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE supports two configurable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Both are user-programmable via EEPROM and can be selected independently per application. The analog mode offers 12-bit resolution with 0.025% VDD/LSB precision; the PWM mode provides ±1% frequency tolerance after EOL tuning for deterministic timing in engine control units.
How does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE handle magnetic field variations below 20 mT?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE supports extended magnetic ranges down to 10 mT. In the 10–15 mT range (Extended Range #2), raw signal offset increases to ±180 LSB15 and thermal offset drift reaches ±270 LSB15, increasing peak-to-peak noise to 112 LSB15. Melexis recommends disabling amplitude-based diagnostics and validating headroom in such low-field configurations-documented in Section 8.1.3 of the datasheet.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes, all MLX90364 DMP-4 variants-including MLX90364LVS-ADD-203-RE, AED-203-RE, and AEE-203-RE-share identical DMP-4 pinout (VSS-VDD-OUT-VSS), mechanical dimensions, and electrical interface. Differences lie solely in firmware features (e.g., thermal offset correction in ADD/AEE versions) and qualification status-not hardware or pin function-enabling drop-in replacement where firmware compatibility is confirmed.
