Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE 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° magnetic angle accuracy (XY axis), 12-bit resolution, ratiometric analog output, and integrated diagnostics. It operates from −40 °C to +150 °C and replaces potentiometers in throttle and EGR valve position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its no-PCB DMP-4 module integration, programmable multi-point transfer characteristic, thermal offset correction capability, open/short diagnostics, and AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology with on-die X/Y/Z magnetic field sensing, enabling absolute angular and linear position decoding via 3D flux vector processing. Its internal DSP computes arctangent-based angle information from raw VX/VY/VZ signals before applying user-programmable piecewise-linear transfer functions.
It features dual-mode output: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or configurable PWM (100–1000 Hz), both with 12-bit effective resolution. Diagnostics include broken-track detection, over/under-voltage monitoring, and field-strength validation - all implemented in hardware without external components.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE operates from −40 °C to +150 °C and is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified, making it suitable for under-hood automotive applications such as throttle bodies and turbo actuators where extreme thermal cycling occurs. This rating is validated across the full DMP-4 package, including internal die and integrated capacitors.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE require an external PCB for implementation?
No - the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE uses Melexis' DMP-4 dual-mold package, which embeds the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors in a single molded module. This eliminates the need for an external PCB, enabling direct mechanical mounting onto metal housings or magnet assemblies in space-constrained automotive modules.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE support?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE supports two user-selectable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Both deliver 12-bit effective resolution and are configured via on-chip EEPROM, allowing seamless replacement of legacy potentiometers or integration into noise-sensitive digital control loops.
How does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE handle diagnostics and fault reporting?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE performs comprehensive on-chip diagnostics including open/short circuit detection on OUT, VDD/VSS supply monitoring, magnetic field strength validation, and thermal offset tracking. Diagnostic states are reported via dedicated output levels (e.g., clamped or saturated voltages) without requiring external logic or microcontroller intervention.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes - all MLX90364 DMP-4 variants, including MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-RE, share identical 4-pin DMP-4 pinout (VSS–VDD–OUT–VSS) and mechanical footprint. Differences lie in lead form (STD4 vs STD1), EEPROM programming, and qualification status - not electrical or physical compatibility. The ADD-301 variant uses STD4 2.54 mm pitch leads per datasheet section 18.1.4.
