Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-208-RX from Melexis is an automotive-grade absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC based on Triaxis® Hall technology, housed in a RoHS-compliant 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-208-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its no-PCB module integration, AEC-Q100 qualification, thermal offset correction capability (AxE variant), open/short diagnostics, and ratiometric analog output compatibility with potentiometer-replacement designs.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-208-RX integrates a Triaxis® sensing die measuring BX, BY, and BZ magnetic field components to compute absolute angular or linear position via on-chip DSP and CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion. Its DMP-4 package embeds up to four decoupling capacitors, eliminating external PCB requirements while meeting stringent automotive ESD/EMC standards.
It features a 12-bit DAC for analog output and 12-bit PWM generation, with programmable filter settings (Filter=0/1/2), configurable diagnostic modes (open/short, broken track), and EEPROM-based end-user calibration of transfer characteristics-including 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear mapping and discontinuity point definition.

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-208-RX | Standard production version; lacks thermal offset correction (AxE) feature present in ADD-208. | Suitable for applications where thermal drift <±0.5° is acceptable; lower cost for non-critical temperature zones. | Select AED-208 when full AxE functionality is not required and cost optimization is prioritized. |
| MLX90365KGO-ABD-100-SP | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant; same Triaxis® core but requires external decoupling and PCB layout. | Used where board-level integration is preferred over module-level mounting; no DMP-4 mechanical robustness. | Choose MLX90365 for space-constrained PCB designs needing flexibility in capacitor selection and routing. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADD-208-RX, the AED-208 offers identical pinout and base functionality at lower cost but omits thermal offset correction, while the MLX90365 requires external capacitors and PCB assembly-making the ADD-208 optimal for no-PCB, high-EMC, thermally demanding automotive modules.
