Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP from Melexis is an automotive-grade absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC based on Triaxis® Hall technology, housed in a RoHS-compliant DMP-4 package with integrated decoupling capacitors. It delivers 12-bit analog or PWM output, supports -40°C to +150°C operation, features open/short diagnostics, over-voltage protection, and programmable transfer characteristics for EGR valve, throttle, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its dual-mold DMP-4 no-PCB integration, ratiometric analog/PWM output flexibility, thermal offset correction capability, AEC-Q100 qualification, and magnetic field sensitivity down to 10 mT in extended range modes.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP integrates a Triaxis® sensing die with on-die DSP, EEPROM, and a 12-bit DAC/PWM output stage within a single DMP-4 module. Its architecture processes orthogonal (BX, BY) and parallel (BZ) magnetic flux components to compute absolute angular or linear position without external PCBs.
It implements programmable multi-point piecewise-linear transfer functions, configurable filter settings (Filter=0/1/2), and diagnostics including broken-track detection, field-strength monitoring, and PWM diagnostic modes - all calibrated and stored in user-accessible EEPROM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Temp Range | -40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive applications including EGR and turbo actuators. |
| Output Modes | Ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz) - enables drop-in replacement of potentiometers or compatibility with microcontroller capture inputs. |
| Resolution & Accuracy | 12-bit output resolution with ≤ ±1° intrinsic angle linearity error (XY axis, factory trimmed) and ≤ ±0.3° thermal angular error over full temperature range. |
| Magnetic Sensitivity Range | Normal: 20–70 mT; Extended #1: 15–20 mT; Extended #2: 10–15 mT - supports low-field magnet designs with validated diagnostic headroom. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; withstands +24 V overvoltage and −12 V reverse polarity - eliminates need for external protection circuitry in harsh environments. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short load detection, broken VDD/VSS identification, field strength monitoring, and programmable diagnostic levels - reduces system-level fault detection latency and improves ASIL-B readiness. |

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 variant with identical Triaxis® die but requires external PCB and decoupling capacitors. | Suitable for PCB-based designs where module integration is not required; lacks DMP-4's integrated ESD/EMC capacitors. | Select when existing layout accommodates SOIC-8 and board-level capacitor placement is preferred over module-level integration. |
| MLX90367LGO-ADB-000-SP | Next-generation Triaxis® sensor with 14-bit resolution, enhanced noise immunity, and extended 5–100 mT magnetic range. | Better suited for new designs requiring higher accuracy or wider field tolerance; not pin-compatible with MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP. | Choose for greenfield projects demanding improved thermal stability or lower minimum field strength, accepting firmware and calibration updates. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP, MLX90365GOB-AAA-000-TU offers identical core sensing performance but requires external PCB integration and discrete decoupling, whereas MLX90367LGO-ADB-000-SP provides higher resolution and broader magnetic range at the cost of migration effort - making MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained DMP-4 module deployments.

FAQ
What is the primary sensing principle used by the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP uses Triaxis® Hall technology to detect all three orthogonal components (BX, BY, BZ) of magnetic flux density. This enables it to compute absolute angular or linear position from a single moving magnet without requiring external magnets or complex magnetic circuits. The sensing die is identical to that used in the MLX90365, but integrated into the DMP-4 package with on-board capacitors.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP require an external PCB for operation?
No, the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP does not require an external PCB. Its Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors in a single molded module. This "no-PCB" construction eliminates solder joints, vias, and board-level parasitics, making it ideal for high-vibration environments like engine compartments and transmission housings.
What output configurations does the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP support?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP supports two programmable output modes: ratiometric analog voltage (0–100% VDD) and pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal with frequency adjustable from 100 Hz to 1000 Hz. Both modes are user-configurable via EEPROM and retain settings after power cycle. The analog output is compatible with standard potentiometer interfaces, while the PWM output supports deterministic timing capture in microcontrollers.
How is diagnostic functionality implemented in the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP implements diagnostics including open/short load detection, broken VDD/VSS identification, field-strength monitoring, and PWM-specific fault reporting. Diagnostic behavior is programmable via EEPROM - users can enable/disable specific checks and set thresholds. Diagnostic outputs appear as defined voltage levels on the OUT pin, allowing host ECUs to distinguish between valid position data and fault states without additional hardware.
Is the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the MLX90364LVS-ADE-201-SP is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40°C to +150°C ambient) and AEC-Q200 qualified. It meets automotive reliability, thermal cycling, humidity, and EMC requirements for powertrain and chassis applications. Its DMP-4 package is RoHS-compliant and designed for reflow soldering per J-STD-020, supporting high-volume automotive manufacturing.
