Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX from Melexis is an AEC-Q100 qualified 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 automotive throttle, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX 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 no-PCB module integration enabled by the DMP-4 package.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX integrates a Triaxis® sensing die that measures all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) to compute absolute angular or linear position without external magnets requiring precise alignment. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and piecewise-linear interpolation of up to 17 calibration points.
It features a 12-bit DAC-based analog output stage with ratiometric behavior and a programmable PWM output (100–1000 Hz), both supported by on-board EEPROM for end-user configuration. Diagnostics include field strength monitoring, output clamping, and broken-track detection via dedicated diagnostic bands in the output span.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V nominal; supports operation up to +24 V absolute max for overvoltage robustness in automotive transients. |
| Output Modes | Ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz); selectable per application wiring and EEPROM config. |
| Resolution | 12-bit analog/PWM output; 15-bit internal ADC resolution ensures ≥0.025% VDD/LSB precision in final output. |
| Accuracy (Angle) | ±0.3° typical intrinsic linearity error (XY axis, 25°C); ±1° max over full temperature range with factory trim. |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +150 °C ambient; qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 0 and AEC-Q200 for under-hood automotive deployment. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short circuit, over/under-voltage, broken-track (VDD/VSS), and magnetic field strength monitoring with configurable thresholds. |
| Package | DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package): integrated 4× decoupling capacitors, RoHS-compliant, no PCB required for module integration. |
Pinout & Package
DMP-4 is a 4-pin, surface-mount dual-mold package with straight leads (STD2 2.54 mm pitch), designed for direct soldering into sensing modules without a PCB. It integrates decoupling capacitors internally and positions the sensitive spot at defined mechanical coordinates per Melexis POD drawings.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog and digital domains; second VSS pin provides low-impedance return path for diagnostics and noise immunity. |
| 2 | VDD | Power supply input (4.5–5.5 V); includes overvoltage protection to +24 V and reverse voltage tolerance to −12 V. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output terminal: drives ratiometric analog voltage or PWM signal; supports push-pull or open-drain modes via programming. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Dedicated diagnostic ground; enables broken-track detection when disconnected, triggering passive diagnostic output levels. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-PCB Module Integration | DMP-4 package embeds four decoupling capacitors and eliminates need for external PCB-reducing BOM count, assembly steps, and EMI susceptibility in compact sensors. |
| Programmable Transfer Characteristic | Supports up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration stored in EEPROM, enabling custom mapping of magnet position to output without firmware changes. |
| Thermal Offset Correction | Compensates output drift over −40 °C to +150 °C using on-chip temperature sensing and DSP-based correction algorithms (AxE variant capability). |
| Dual-Mode Output Flexibility | Single device supports either analog (ratiometric, 0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz) output-selected via EEPROM config, simplifying platform reuse across ECU interface types. |
| Comprehensive On-Chip Diagnostics | Monitors supply, output, and magnetic field health in real time; reports faults via clamped output levels or diagnostic bands-enabling ASIL-B compliant functional safety architectures. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90365GOB-AAA-000-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount package; requires external decoupling capacitors and PCB; same Triaxis® die and core functionality. | Suitable for PCB-based designs where module-level integration is not required; lacks DMP-4's no-PCB advantage and integrated EMC filtering. | Select when board space allows discrete capacitor placement and higher assembly flexibility is needed over module ruggedness. |
| MLX90393ELW-ABA-000-SP | 3-axis magnetic sensor with I²C/SPI digital interface; 16-bit resolution; no analog/PWM output; different architecture (no CoRDiC engine). | Used in non-automotive contexts (e.g., industrial robotics) requiring digital bus communication and multi-axis field vector data-not absolute position decoding. | Select only for applications needing raw BX/BY/BZ data or where microcontroller handles position computation; not a functional replacement for MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX, MLX90365GOB-AAA-000-TU offers identical sensing performance but demands external capacitors and PCB routing, increasing design complexity and ESD vulnerability; MLX90393ELW-ABA-000-SP provides higher-resolution raw field data but lacks on-chip position calculation and automotive-grade diagnostics-making it unsuitable for direct substitution in throttle or EGR systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX operates from −40 °C to +150 °C ambient temperature and is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified. This range covers under-hood automotive locations such as throttle bodies, EGR valves, and turbo actuators where thermal cycling and sustained high temperatures are common. The device maintains specified accuracy and diagnostic functionality across this full range.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX require an external PCB for implementation?
No-the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX uses Melexis' DMP-4 package, which integrates four decoupling capacitors and eliminates the need for an external PCB. It is designed for direct soldering into sensing modules, reducing system cost, size, and potential failure points associated with PCB flexure or solder joint fatigue in high-vibration environments.
Can the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX output both analog and PWM signals simultaneously?
No-the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX supports either ratiometric analog or PWM output mode, selected permanently via EEPROM programming during manufacturing or end-user calibration. The output pin (OUT) is configured for one mode only; simultaneous dual-mode operation is not supported by the hardware architecture.
What diagnostic capabilities does the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX provide?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX includes open/short circuit detection on the output, over/under-voltage monitoring on VDD, broken-track diagnostics for VDD and VSS pins, and magnetic field strength validation. Diagnostic states are reported through clamped output levels or dedicated diagnostic bands within the output span, supporting ASIL-B functional safety requirements.
Is thermal offset correction available in the MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX variant?
The MLX90364LVS-ADD-403-RX is part of the ADD option code family, which does not include the AxE version's advanced thermal output offset correction. However, it retains basic thermal drift compensation in the DSP front-end (e.g., Thermal Offset Drift #1 ≤ ±60 LSB15 over −40 °C to +125 °C), sufficient for most automotive position sensing applications without requiring AxE-level correction.
