Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-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° magnetic angle phase error (XY axis), 10-bit thermal accuracy, and integrated diagnostics including open/short detection and over-voltage protection - deployed in throttle position sensing and EGR valve monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, programmable transfer characteristic, dual-ground-pin DMP-4 layout, ratiometric analog output compatibility with potentiometer interfaces, and thermal offset correction capability in select variants.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) for absolute angular or linear position decoding without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and supports user-programmable 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear transfer functions.
It integrates a 12-bit DAC for analog output and a 12-bit PWM generator with programmable frequency (100–1000 Hz), while embedded diagnostics monitor supply voltage, output continuity, and magnetic field strength - all operating across −40°C to +150°C with built-in ESD/EMC decoupling capacitors in the DMP-4 mold.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Temp Range | −40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive applications including turbo actuators and ride height control. |
| Output Modes | Analog (ratiometric, 0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz) - selectable via EEPROM programming for flexibility in signal conditioning architecture. |
| Magnetic Accuracy | ±0.3° phase error (XY axis at 25°C) - enables high-fidelity angular measurement in throttle and clutch position systems. |
| Resolution | 12-bit analog / 12-bit PWM - delivers 0.025% VDD/LSB resolution supporting precise closed-loop feedback control. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short, over-voltage, under-voltage, field strength, and broken-track detection - reduces need for external safety monitoring circuitry. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V nominal; withstands +24 V overvoltage - compatible with 5 V automotive power domains and robust against load dump transients. |
| Package | DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) with integrated decoupling capacitors - eliminates requirement for external PCB and simplifies module-level integration. |
Pinout & Package
DMP-4 is a 4-pin, surface-mount, dual-molded package with two ground pins for enhanced EMC performance and mechanical stability. It features integrated decoupling capacitors and is RoHS compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog and digital sections; mandatory for stable biasing and noise immunity. |
| 2 | VDD | 5 V supply input with overvoltage tolerance up to +24 V; includes internal regulator and POR circuitry. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output pin delivering either ratiometric analog voltage or PWM signal; supports push-pull or open-drain modes. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground terminal - improves current return path separation and reduces ground bounce in noisy environments. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Magnetic Sensing | Simultaneous measurement of BX, BY, BZ enables true absolute position decoding without magnet rotation constraints or external flux concentrators. |
| Programmable Transfer Function | Up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration allows precise linearization for custom magnetic circuits - critical for non-ideal stroke or angle profiles. |
| Dual-Ground DMP-4 Construction | Integrated decoupling capacitors and dual VSS pins reduce ESD susceptibility and improve EMC compliance without external components or PCB space. |
| On-Chip Diagnostics | Real-time monitoring of supply, output continuity, and magnetic field amplitude eliminates need for redundant external fault-detection circuitry. |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Validated for automotive Grade 0 (−40°C to +150°C), supporting safety-critical applications such as transmission shift position and brake pedal sensing. |

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-ADB-002-SP | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with identical Triaxis® die but requires external decoupling and PCB mounting. | Used where board-level integration is preferred over module-level embedding; lacks DMP-4's integrated capacitors and dual-ground layout. | Select when existing PCB layout accommodates SOIC-8 and external capacitor placement is acceptable. |
| MLX90374ELV-ABF-000-TU | Next-generation Triaxis® sensor with 14-bit resolution, extended 10–100 mT magnetic range, and enhanced thermal drift compensation. | Targets higher-accuracy applications like steer-by-wire; not drop-in due to different pinout and EEPROM programming interface. | Choose for new designs requiring improved linearity (<±0.1°) and broader field tolerance, accepting firmware and layout updates. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX, the MLX90365 offers PCB-based flexibility at the cost of added component count and EMC tuning effort, while the MLX90374 provides superior accuracy and range but requires redesign of both hardware interface and calibration workflow.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX operates from −40°C to +150°C and is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified, making it suitable for under-hood automotive applications such as turbocharger actuators and transmission control modules where extreme thermal cycling occurs. This range is validated across all electrical and magnetic specifications in the official datasheet revision 007.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX require an external PCB for integration?
No - the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX uses Melexis' DMP-4 Dual Mold Package, which embeds the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors in a single molded unit. This eliminates the need for an external PCB in sensing modules, enabling direct integration into plastic housings or metal brackets typical in throttle bodies and EGR valves.
Can the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX output both analog and PWM signals simultaneously?
No - the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX supports only one active output mode at a time: either ratiometric analog voltage or programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). The mode is configured permanently via EEPROM programming during manufacturing or end-user calibration; switching requires reprogramming and power cycle.
What diagnostic capabilities does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX provide?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX includes open/short circuit detection on the OUT pin, over-voltage and under-voltage monitoring on VDD, broken-track diagnostics for VSS/VDD lines, and field strength validation. These diagnostics are reported via dedicated output states (e.g., clamped levels or diagnostic pulses) and do not require external components per the datasheet Section 13.7 and Figure 2.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADD-303-RX pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes - all MLX90364 variants in DMP-4 package (e.g., ADD-300, ADD-301, ADD-308) share identical 4-pin pinout (VSS–VDD–OUT–VSS), mechanical footprint, and soldering profile. However, differences in option codes (e.g., ADD vs AED) reflect die revisions, trim configurations, and thermal offset features - verify EEPROM programmability and diagnostic behavior per datasheet Table 1 and Section 13.
