Product details

Overview

MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RE from Melexis is an automotive-grade Triaxis® absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC in DMP-4 package, delivering 12-bit analog or PWM output with ±0.3° magnetic angle phase error (XY axis), 10-bit thermal accuracy, and integrated diagnostics including open/short detection, over-voltage protection, and under-voltage monitoring - deployed in throttle position sensing and EGR valve control systems.

For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, programmable transfer characteristic (4- or 17-point piecewise-linear), dual ground pins for noise immunity, and no-PCB module integration capability enabled by on-die decoupling capacitors.

Technical Context

The MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) using a single die, enabling absolute angular position calculation via on-chip DSP and CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion. Its architecture integrates a 15-bit ADC for raw signal acquisition, 12-bit DAC for analog output, and EEPROM-programmable firmware supporting both ratiometric analog and PWM output modes.

Signal conditioning includes configurable FIR filtering (3 settings), hysteresis filtering, and thermal offset correction (not enabled in AED-208 variant). Diagnostics cover field strength, PWM integrity, and supply rail faults, with passive broken-track detection on VSS/VDD lines and active diagnostic output levels defined at 4% and 96% of VDD.

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-AEE-208-RE	Includes thermal output offset correction (AxE version); same pinout, package, and programming interface	Required for applications demanding <±0.15° thermal drift compensation over full −40°C to +150°C range	Select AEE-208 when thermal stability dominates over cost; AED-208 suffices for most throttle/EGR use cases
MLX90365GOB-100-SP	SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with identical Triaxis die but external decoupling; no integrated capacitors	Suitable for PCB-based designs where layout space allows discrete capacitor placement and reflow compatibility is needed	Choose MLX90365 when integrating into conventional PCB assemblies rather than no-PCB modules

Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RE, the AEE-208 adds thermal offset correction for tighter angular drift control, while the MLX90365GOB-100-SP trades DMP-4's embedded capacitors for SOIC-8 manufacturability - making AED-208 optimal for compact, high-EMC module integration without PCB dependency.
