Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-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, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its ratiometric analog/PWM dual-mode output, on-board diagnostics (open/short, over/under-voltage), thermal offset correction capability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for safety-critical automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-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 internal DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and piecewise-linear interpolation using up to 17 user-programmable points.
It features a 12-bit DAC for analog output and a programmable 100–1000 Hz PWM generator, both ratiometric to VDD. The device includes embedded EEPROM for calibration data, diagnostic logic for field strength and output integrity, and hardware-level protection including overvoltage (24 V), reverse voltage (−12 V), and thermal drift compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; withstands +24 V overvoltage and −12 V reverse polarity - enables direct battery connection in 12 V automotive systems without external protection circuitry |
| Output Modes | Ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz) - supports legacy potentiometer replacement and noise-immune digital interfaces |
| Resolution & Accuracy | 12-bit output resolution; ±1° typical intrinsic angle linearity error (XY axis); <0.2° peak-to-peak noise at 30 mT with recommended filter setting - ensures sub-degree position fidelity in EGR and throttle applications |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C ambient - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 for under-hood placement near engines and exhaust systems |
| Diagnostics | Open/short circuit detection, over/under-voltage monitoring, broken-track (VSS/VDD) diagnostics, and field strength validation - provides ASIL-B–compatible fault reporting without host MCU intervention |
| Magnetic Range | Normal operation: 20–70 mT; extended ranges down to 10 mT - accommodates diverse magnet sizes and air gaps in clutch, shift fork, and ride height sensors |
| Package | DMP-4 dual-mold package with integrated 4× decoupling capacitors - eliminates need for external EMC filtering and PCB mounting, enabling direct module integration into metal housings |

| On-Board Diagnostics | Real-time open/short, over/under-voltage, and flux amplitude checks - outputs diagnostic flags via OUT pin without requiring host processor polling or additional I/O lines |
| Thermal Offset Correction | Compensates for sensor front-end offset drift across −40 °C to +150 °C - maintains ≤±0.3° angular error over full automotive temperature range (ADE variant includes this feature) |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Grade 0 stress testing (HTOL, TC, UHAST, ESD) - validates reliability for safety-critical powertrain and chassis control applications requiring ASIL-B functional safety alignment |
Applications
| Throttle Position Sensing | EGR Valve Position Sensing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Real-time measurement of butterfly valve angular position in gasoline/diesel intake manifolds under high-temperature, high-vibration conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute rotary position sensor providing ratiometric analog output synchronized to engine control unit (ECU) ADC sampling. Use Value: Eliminates potentiometer wear-out and contact bounce; 12-bit resolution and thermal offset correction ensure <±0.5° accuracy across full temperature range and lifetime. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absolute linear position sensor with short-circuit diagnostics, interfacing directly to transmission control module (TCM). Use Value: No-PCB DMP-4 construction resists oil ingress and mechanical stress; open/short diagnostics enable immediate fault isolation during gear engagement sequences. |
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 | Lacks thermal offset correction (AxE version); otherwise identical pinout, DMP-4 package, and feature set | Suitable for lower-temperature zones (<125 °C ambient) where offset drift <±0.5° is acceptable | Select AED-201 if cost sensitivity outweighs need for full −40 °C to +150 °C thermal accuracy guarantee |
| MLX90365GOB-AAA-000-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with same Triaxis® die but requires external decoupling and PCB; no integrated capacitors | Used in space-constrained PCB-mounted designs where module integration is not required | Choose MLX90365 only when board-level assembly is preferred and EMC filtering can be implemented externally |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE, the AED-201 offers identical functionality at lower cost but sacrifices guaranteed thermal offset correction across the full automotive range, while the MLX90365 requires PCB integration and external EMC components - making the ADE-201 optimal for rugged, no-PCB module designs demanding ASIL-B–aligned diagnostics and accuracy.

FAQ
What is the primary sensing principle used in the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE uses Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal components (BX, BY, BZ) of the magnetic flux density. This enables computation of absolute angular or linear position from a single moving magnet without requiring external gears or cams. The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE processes these signals internally using CoRDiC algorithms and a 12-bit DAC to generate its output.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE require an external PCB for operation?
No - the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE is packaged in a Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) that integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and four decoupling capacitors into a single, PCB-free module. This eliminates the need for printed circuit board assembly, simplifies mechanical integration into metal sensor housings, and meets stringent automotive EMC requirements without external filtering components.
What output configurations does the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE support?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE supports two configurable output modes: ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Both outputs are fully user-programmable via EEPROM, including transfer characteristic shape, zero point, and diagnostic thresholds. The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE's output stage supports push-pull or open-drain drive depending on configuration.
How is diagnostic functionality implemented in the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE implements autonomous diagnostics including open/short circuit detection on the OUT pin, over/under-voltage monitoring on VDD, broken-track detection on VSS/VDD, and magnetic field strength validation. Diagnostic states are signaled via clamped output levels or dedicated PWM patterns on the same OUT pin - no additional communication interface or host MCU polling is required for basic fault reporting.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE qualified for automotive safety applications?
Yes - the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40 °C to +150 °C) and AEC-Q200 qualified for passive components. Its on-board diagnostics, thermal offset correction, and robust DMP-4 packaging support ASIL-B–aligned system designs in powertrain and chassis control. The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-RE's failure modes and diagnostic coverage are documented in Melexis' functional safety documentation package.
