Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX 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-AED-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 safety-critical automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-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 of up to 17 calibration points stored in EEPROM.
It features a 12-bit DAC for analog output and a programmable PWM generator with 100–1000 Hz frequency range, both ratiometric to VDD. Internal diagnostics include field-strength monitoring, output-stage fault detection, and broken-track identification via clamped diagnostic levels.

FAQ
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX support?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX supports two configurable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% of VDD) and pulse-width modulation (PWM) with programmable frequency from 100 Hz to 1000 Hz. Both outputs are derived from the same 12-bit internal DAC and retain ratiometric behavior relative to supply voltage, ensuring stability against rail variation in automotive systems. The mode is selected during end-user programming via the I²C-compatible interface.
Is the MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes, all MLX90364 DMP-4 variants-including MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX-share identical 4-pin DMP-4 pinout (VSS, VDD, OUT, VSS) and mechanical footprint. Differences between AED-xxx codes relate to internal trimming, capacitor configuration, and lead form (STD2 2.54 mm), not pin assignment or electrical interface. This ensures consistent PCB layout reuse across qualified DMP-4 versions.
How does the MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX handle magnetic field variations outside the 20–70 mT range?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX supports extended magnetic ranges: 15–20 mT (Range #1) and 10–15 mT (Range #2), with documented accuracy degradation (e.g., ±180 LSB15 thermal offset drift at 10–15 mT). Melexis recommends validating diagnostic headroom and potentially disabling amplitude-based diagnostics when operating in these ranges to avoid false fault flags.
What diagnostics are built into the MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX provides comprehensive on-chip diagnostics: open/short detection on the output line, over-voltage (≥6.2 V) and under-voltage (≤2.25 V) monitoring, field strength validation, and broken-track identification via dedicated clamped output levels (BVSSPD, BVDDPU, etc.). All diagnostics generate observable output states without requiring external circuitry.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX require external decoupling capacitors?
No. The MLX90364LVS-AED-203-RX's DMP-4 package integrates up to four internal decoupling capacitors optimized for ESD and EMC robustness, eliminating the need for external capacitors in standard implementations. This "no-PCB" design reduces BOM count, simplifies assembly, and enhances reliability in high-vibration automotive environments.
