Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-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 phase error (XY axis), 12-bit resolution, and AEC-Q100 qualification for throttle and EGR valve position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page details its Triaxis Hall-based 3-axis flux sensing, programmable transfer characteristic, open/short diagnostics, thermal offset correction, and DMP-4 no-PCB integration for high-reliability automotive motion control.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) simultaneously, enabling absolute angular position decoding up to 360° or linear displacement via external magnet geometry. Its on-chip DSP computes arctangent-based angle using CoRDiC algorithms and supports 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear programming of output transfer characteristics.
It integrates dual-stage protection: overvoltage tolerance up to +24 V on VDD, reverse voltage protection down to −12 V, and robust on-die decoupling capacitors within the DMP-4 package for ESD/EMC compliance. Output modes include ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz), both with active diagnostics and clamping.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90365KGO-ABA-000-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with identical Triaxis core, but requires external PCB and discrete decoupling capacitors | Suitable for PCB-based designs where DMP-4's no-PCB integration is unnecessary; lacks DMP-4's integrated EMC filtering | Select when board space allows SOIC-8 placement and external capacitor layout is acceptable |
| MLX90393ELQ-AAA-000-SP | 3-axis Hall sensor with I²C interface, 16-bit resolution, and lower power (2.5 mA), but no analog/PWM output or built-in diagnostics | Better for low-power, digitally interfaced systems (e.g., battery-powered sensors); not drop-in for analog/PWM ECU inputs | Choose for I²C-connected microcontrollers needing higher resolution and lower quiescent current, not for legacy analog/PWM ECUs |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE, the MLX90365 offers identical sensing performance in a conventional package but requires external design effort for EMC compliance, while the MLX90393 trades analog/PWM compatibility and diagnostics for digital flexibility and ultra-low power-making the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE optimal for AEC-Q100-compliant analog/PWM automotive subsystems demanding plug-and-play reliability.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 and operates from −40°C to +150°C ambient temperature. Its internal thermal offset correction and robust DMP-4 packaging ensure stable 12-bit analog and PWM output performance across this full automotive range without derating.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE require an external PCB for implementation?
No-the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE uses Melexis' DMP-4 package, which integrates the Triaxis die and up to four decoupling capacitors in a single molded unit. This eliminates the need for an external PCB in sensing modules, reducing system cost, size, and potential failure points in high-vibration environments.
How does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE achieve absolute position measurement without a magnet calibration step?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE measures all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) using Triaxis® Hall technology and computes absolute angle via on-chip CoRDiC-based arctangent processing. Factory-trimmed sensitivity and orthogonality parameters enable accurate 0–360° output without end-of-line magnet calibration-though multi-point user programming further improves linearity.
What diagnostic capabilities does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE provide?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE delivers comprehensive diagnostics including open/short detection on the OUT pin, broken VDD/VSS monitoring, magnetic field strength validation, and programmable diagnostic thresholds. These features report faults via dedicated output states or clamped levels, meeting ISO 26262 ASIL-B readiness requirements for safety-critical position sensing.
Can the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE output both analog and PWM signals simultaneously?
No-the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RE supports either ratiometric analog or PWM output mode, selected during programming. The output stage is configured exclusively for one mode at a time; switching requires reprogramming the EEPROM. Both modes share the same OUT pin and offer 12-bit effective resolution with independent diagnostic coverage.
