Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX from Melexis is an automotive-grade Triaxis® absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC in DMP-4 package, delivering 12-bit analog or PWM output with ±0.3° typical angular accuracy, 12-bit resolution, and integrated diagnostics. It operates from −40°C to +150°C, supports ratiometric analog and programmable PWM modes, and targets throttle, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its no-PCB DMP-4 module integration, dual-mold ESD/EMC robustness, thermal offset correction capability, AEC-Q100 qualification, and programmable multi-point transfer characteristic for magnetic field calibration.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) simultaneously, enabling absolute angle computation via on-chip DSP and CoRDiC algorithm. Its architecture integrates a 15-bit ADC front-end, 12-bit DAC output stage, EEPROM-programmable firmware, and configurable FIR/hysteresis filters.
It features dual supply domains (VDD/VDIG), programmable output mode selection (analog ratiometric or PWM), open/short diagnostics, over-voltage protection up to +24 V, and under-voltage detection at 3.8–4.2 V. The device supports end-user calibration of transfer characteristics using up to 17-piecewise-linear points and includes 48-bit unique ID storage.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX operates from −40°C to +150°C and is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0. This wide range enables deployment in under-hood automotive locations such as throttle bodies, EGR valves, and turbo actuators where ambient temperatures exceed 125°C. The device maintains specified accuracy and diagnostic functionality across this full range due to on-chip thermal offset correction and robust DMP-4 packaging.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX require an external PCB for operation?
No, the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX does not require an external PCB. Its Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors, allowing direct mechanical integration with magnets in compact, PCB-free modules. This eliminates solder joints, trace routing, and external passive components - reducing failure modes and improving EMC robustness in high-vibration environments.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX support?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX supports two user-selectable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Both modes are configured via EEPROM programming and can be switched without hardware changes. The analog output interfaces directly with legacy potentiometer-based ECUs, while the PWM mode offers noise-immune digital signaling ideal for noisy powertrain environments.
How is magnetic field calibration performed on the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX?
Magnetic field calibration for the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX is performed via end-user programming of up to 17-piecewise-linear (17-Pts LNR) transfer characteristic points stored in on-chip EEPROM. Using Melexis' PTM software and compatible programming tool, users capture position vs. output data across the mechanical range and upload correction coefficients - compensating for magnet nonlinearity, air gap variation, and mechanical misalignment without modifying hardware.
What diagnostics are built into the MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-300-RX includes comprehensive on-chip diagnostics: open/short circuit detection on OUT, broken-track (VDD/VSS) monitoring, over-voltage (>6.6 V) and under-voltage (<4.2 V) flags, field-strength validation, and PWM-specific diagnostic pulses. All diagnostics generate defined output states (e.g., clamped low/high) readable by the host ECU, satisfying ISO 26262 ASIL-B functional safety requirements for position feedback in automotive systems.
