Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE 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 position, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its ratiometric analog/PWM dual-mode output, built-in diagnostics (open/short, over/under-voltage), thermal offset correction capability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE 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) and supports user-programmable 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear transfer functions.
It features dual-output architecture: a 12-bit ratiometric analog output (0–100% VDD) and a programmable 100–1000 Hz PWM output with push-pull or open-drain configuration. Internal diagnostics include field strength monitoring, output clamping, and broken-track detection via dedicated diagnostic bands.

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-308-RE | Standard production version (not "not recommended for new design"); identical DMP-4 package, pinout, and electrical specs | Same functional scope; differs only in option code revision status and EEPROM programming defaults | Select AED-308-RE for new designs requiring full Melexis support lifecycle and latest firmware defaults |
| MLX90365KGO-ABF-100-SP | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant; same Triaxis® die but requires external decoupling and PCB layout; no integrated capacitors | Suitable for PCB-based modules where space constraints preclude DMP-4 form factor; lacks no-PCB integration benefit | Choose MLX90365 when board-level integration is preferred and ESD/EMC filtering can be implemented externally |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE, the AED-308-RE offers identical performance with full production support, while the MLX90365KGO-ABF-100-SP provides equivalent sensing functionality in a conventional SOIC package-requiring additional PCB area and discrete capacitor placement but enabling higher-density layouts.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE in automotive systems?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE serves as an absolute rotary or linear position sensor, converting magnetic field vector measurements (BX, BY, BZ) into calibrated analog or PWM output signals. It is deployed in throttle bodies, EGR valves, and turbo actuators to provide precise, wear-free position feedback under extreme thermal and vibration conditions-directly supporting closed-loop engine control and emissions compliance.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE require an external PCB for operation?
No. The MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE uses Melexis' DMP-4 dual-mold package, which integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors in a single leaded module. This eliminates the need for an external PCB in final sensor assemblies-reducing bill-of-materials cost, improving mechanical robustness, and simplifying module-level integration for automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE support, and how are they selected?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE supports two configurable output modes: ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Mode selection is performed via end-user programming of the EEPROM during calibration-no hardware change is needed. The device retains its configured mode across power cycles, and both outputs share the same OUT pin.
How does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE handle temperature-induced errors in position measurement?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE applies two-stage thermal compensation: first, DSP-level correction of raw magnetic signal offset (±60 LSB15 drift over −40 °C to +125 °C); second, DAC/output-stage thermal offset correction (±0.2% VDD) for analog output. These mechanisms maintain angular accuracy within ±1° over the full −40 °C to +150 °C operating range without external calibration.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE qualified for automotive safety-critical applications?
Yes. The MLX90364LVS-ADD-308-RE is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40 °C to +150 °C) and incorporates multiple hardware-level diagnostics-including open/short detection, over/under-voltage monitoring, field strength validation, and broken-track identification. These features enable system-level ASIL-B compliance when integrated into properly architected control units, making it suitable for powertrain and chassis applications.
