Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-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 integrated diagnostics including open/short detection and over-voltage protection - deployed in throttle position sensing and EGR valve control.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, programmable transfer characteristic (4- or 17-point LNR), thermal offset correction capability, and dual-mold DMP-4 construction eliminating PCB dependency.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) for true 3D position decoding. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and arctangent computation to derive absolute angular or linear displacement without external processing.
It features a fully integrated DMP-4 package containing the Triaxis die plus up to four decoupling capacitors, enabling direct module integration without PCB. Output modes are user-selectable: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz, ±1% initial tolerance), both with 12-bit effective resolution and built-in diagnostics including field strength monitoring and broken-track detection.

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 | Same DMP-4 package and Triaxis® core; differs in capacitor configuration (C1/C2 only) and lead form (STD1 2.54 mm). | Not recommended for new design per Melexis documentation; lacks extended magnetic range tuning support. | Select MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE for new designs requiring STD4 lead form and full extended-range diagnostics. |
| MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE | Identical pinout, package, and electrical specs; differs in factory-programmed EEPROM settings (default output mode, clamping levels, filter config). | Standard production version with pre-configured diagnostics; no thermal offset correction enabled by default. | Choose MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE when end-user programming of thermal offset correction and multi-point LNR is required. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-201-RE and MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE, the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE provides identical core sensing performance but is specifically configured for STD4 lead form and supports full end-user programmability of thermal offset correction and 17-point transfer function - making it optimal for new designs demanding maximum flexibility and long-term calibration stability.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE operates from −40 °C to +150 °C and is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified. This range is validated across all electrical parameters including magnetic accuracy, output linearity, and diagnostic functionality - ensuring reliable operation in under-hood automotive locations such as throttle bodies and turbo actuators where ambient temperatures exceed 125 °C.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE require an external PCB for integration?
No, the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE uses Melexis' Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) which integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors into a single molded module. This eliminates the need for an external PCB, reducing system cost, improving EMC robustness, and enabling direct mounting into metal housings or plastic sensor modules - a key advantage over SOIC-8 or TSSOP-16 alternatives.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE support, and how are they selected?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE supports two user-selectable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and PWM (100–1000 Hz). Mode selection is performed via EEPROM programming using Melexis' PTC software and a standard I²C-compatible programmer. The default mode is set at factory but can be reconfigured in-system without hardware changes.
How does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE handle magnetic field variations outside the normal 20–70 mT range?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE supports two extended magnetic ranges: 15–20 mT (Extended Range #1) and 10–15 mT (Extended Range #2). In these ranges, thermal offset drift increases to ±180 LSB15 and noise rises to 112 LSB15 peak-to-peak. Melexis recommends disabling amplitude-based diagnostics and validating headroom during application-specific testing - documented in Section 8.1.2–8.1.3 of the datasheet.
Is thermal offset correction enabled by default on the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE?
Yes, the MLX90364LVS-ADD-400-RE includes thermal output offset correction in the analog signal path (AxE version), actively compensating for temperature-induced zero-point drift. This feature is factory-enabled and programmable via EEPROM - distinguishing it from base AED variants where correction must be manually activated. It delivers ≤±0.2% VDD thermal offset drift over −40 °C to +150 °C.
