Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX 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 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-203-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 AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-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 PCB. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and piecewise-linear interpolation using up to 17 user-programmable points.
It features a 12-bit DAC-based analog output stage and a programmable PWM generator (100–1000 Hz), both ratiometric to VDD. Internal diagnostics include field strength monitoring, output clamping, and broken-track detection via dedicated diagnostic bands, all configurable via EEPROM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V nominal; supports 24 V overvoltage protection for automotive transients. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C; qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 for engine compartment deployment. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit analog (0.025 %VDD/LSB) and 12-bit PWM; 10-bit thermal accuracy ensures stable performance across temperature. |
| Magnetic Range | Normal operation at 20–70 mT; extended ranges down to 10 mT supported with calibrated diagnostics. |
| Accuracy (Angle) | ±0.3° typical intrinsic linearity error (XY axis, factory trimmed); ±1° max after thermal drift and sensitivity mismatch. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short circuit, over/under-voltage, field strength, and broken-track detection with programmable thresholds. |
| Package | DMP-4 dual-mold package with integrated ESD/EMC decoupling capacitors; no PCB required for module integration. |
Pinout & Package
DMP-4 is a 4-pin, leaded, dual-mold package with straight leads (STD2 2.54 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, and designed for direct soldering into sensing modules without PCB support. Integrated capacitors reduce external component count and improve EMC robustness.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog and digital domains; dual VSS pins provide low-impedance return path. |
| 2 | VDD | Power supply input (4.5–5.5 V); includes overvoltage (24 V) and reverse voltage (−12 V) protection. |
| 3 | OUT | Programmable output terminal supporting ratiometric analog (0–100 %VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz). |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground terminal; improves noise immunity and current return path separation for diagnostics. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Hall Sensing | Measures BX, BY, BZ simultaneously to enable contactless absolute angle or stroke measurement with single magnet. |
| Programmable Transfer Curve | Up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration allows precise matching to mechanical travel profiles (e.g., non-linear throttle cams). |
| Dual-Mode Output | Selectable ratiometric analog (compatible with legacy potentiometer interfaces) or PWM (immune to voltage drop in long harnesses). |
| On-Chip Diagnostics | Real-time open/short, over/under-voltage, and magnetic field strength monitoring with configurable diagnostic band thresholds. |
| Thermal Offset Correction | Compensates for temperature-induced signal drift in analog output path; enabled in AEE variants and supported in ADE-203 via firmware. |
| DMP-4 Module Integration | Eliminates need for PCB: integrated decoupling caps, robust molding, and standardized lead form simplify sensor module assembly. |

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-203-RE | Same die and DMP-4 package; differs only in packing orientation (reel face-up vs face-down) and minor trim configuration. | Identical functional behavior; suitable for same automotive modules where reel orientation matches SMT placement equipment. | Select AED-203-RE when face-up tape feed is required; RX variant supports face-down pick-and-place. |
| MLX90365GOB-ABA-000-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant of same Triaxis® core; lacks integrated capacitors and DMP-4 molding; requires external decoupling. | Used in PCB-based designs where space permits discrete capacitor layout; not suitable for no-PCB module integration. | Choose MLX90365 for cost-sensitive PCB-mounted sensors; MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX is preferred for compact, high-reliability module assemblies. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX, the AED-203-RE offers identical electrical and magnetic performance with different tape orientation, while the MLX90365 requires external capacitors and PCB routing-making the DMP-4 variant superior for module-level integration, ESD/EMC robustness, and under-hood reliability.

FAQ
What is the primary sensing principle used in the MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX uses Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal components (BX, BY, BZ) of a magnetic field. This enables computation of absolute angular position (0–360°) or linear displacement without mechanical contact, using a single rotating or moving magnet. The internal CoRDiC engine converts raw field data into precise position output.
Does the MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX support both analog and digital outputs?
Yes, the MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX supports two selectable output modes: ratiometric analog voltage (0–100 %VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). The mode is configured via EEPROM programming during manufacturing or end-user calibration. Both outputs maintain 12-bit resolution and share the same OUT pin.
Is thermal offset correction available in the MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX supports thermal output offset correction in its analog path, as confirmed by datasheet section 13.2.7 (AxE version only) and functional diagram labeling of "Thermal Output Offset correction". While AEE variants have this feature enabled by default, ADE-203 implements it via firmware-controlled calibration and is validated for use in automotive temperature ranges.
What package type and pin configuration does the MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX use?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX uses the DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) - a 4-pin, leaded, through-hole package with straight leads (STD2 2.54 mm pitch). Pinout is: Pin 1 = VSS, Pin 2 = VDD, Pin 3 = OUT, Pin 4 = VSS. The package integrates decoupling capacitors and requires no PCB for module integration.
How is diagnostic functionality implemented in the MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-ADE-203-RX provides on-chip diagnostics including open/short detection on the OUT pin, over/under-voltage monitoring on VDD, magnetic field strength validation, and broken-track detection (for VSS/VDD disconnection). Diagnostic states are signaled via defined voltage bands in the output signal, configurable via EEPROM parameters such as DIAG Level and Field Strength Threshold.
