Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP 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-301-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, application-specific implementation value, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and packaging differences.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP integrates a Triaxis® sensing die capable of measuring all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) to compute absolute angular or linear position without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC), multi-point piecewise-linear interpolation, and thermal offset correction.
It features dual-output capability-ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz)-with built-in diagnostics including open/short detection, over-voltage protection, under-voltage monitoring, and field-strength validation. The DMP-4 package embeds up to four decoupling capacitors for AEC-Q100-compliant EMC/ESD robustness.

Applications
| Throttle Position Sensing | EGR Valve Position Sensing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Real-time angular measurement of throttle plate rotation in gasoline/diesel engines under high-temperature, high-vibration conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute rotary position sensor providing ratiometric analog output synchronized to engine control unit sampling. Use Value: Eliminates potentiometer wear and contact bounce; 12-bit resolution enables <0.1° control granularity for precise air-fuel ratio management. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute linear position sensor with clamped output levels and passive broken-track diagnostics for safety-critical chassis control. Use Value: Dual VSS pins improve noise immunity in high-EMI chassis wiring; 48-bit ID enables unique calibration data storage per vehicle unit. |
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-201-RE | Standard production version (AED prefix); supports same DMP-4 package, 12-bit analog/PWM, and Triaxis® core but lacks thermal offset correction in AxE variant. | Targeted for cost-sensitive automotive modules where thermal drift compensation is managed externally or not required. | Select AED-201 for new designs requiring full production support; ADD-301 is legacy sample-only with identical electrical specs but no thermal offset correction. |
| MLX90365KGO-ABF-100-SP | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant of same Triaxis® die; requires external PCB and discrete decoupling; no integrated capacitors. | Suitable for PCB-based designs with space constraints and existing layout infrastructure, not for direct module integration. | Choose MLX90365 when board space permits and ESD/EMC filtering can be implemented externally; MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP avoids layout complexity and ensures repeatable module-level EMC performance. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP, the AED-201 offers full production lifecycle support and identical core functionality, while the MLX90365KGO-ABF-100-SP trades DMP-4 integration for SOIC-8 flexibility-requiring added PCB area, external capacitors, and revalidation of EMC behavior.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP 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 ambient temperatures exceed 125 °C. This range is guaranteed across all electrical specifications including accuracy, refresh rate, and diagnostic functionality.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP require an external PCB for integration?
No-the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP uses Melexis' DMP-4 dual-mold package that integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors into a single molded module. This eliminates the need for an external PCB, enabling direct mounting into plastic or metal housings for EGR valves, throttle bodies, and ride height sensors.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP support?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP 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 provide 12-bit effective resolution; the analog mode interfaces directly with MCU ADCs, while PWM enables noise-immune timing-based capture.
How does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP handle magnetic field variations across temperature?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP applies on-chip thermal offset correction at the DSP input stage, reducing angular error drift to ±0.3° over −40 °C to +125 °C in standard magnetic ranges. Its sensitivity mismatch drift is limited to ±0.5% for XY axis, ensuring consistent output linearity without external temperature compensation circuitry.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes-MLX90364LVS-ADD-301-SP shares identical DMP-4 pinout (VSS-VDD-OUT-VSS) and electrical interface with all MLX90364LVS-x variants, including AED and AEE versions. However, ADD-suffix parts are marked "not recommended for new design" per Melexis' ordering guide; AED-201 is the designated production replacement with identical pinout and function.
