Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-208-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 package with integrated decoupling capacitors. It delivers 12-bit analog or PWM output, supports -40°C to +150°C operation, and features open/short diagnostics, over-voltage protection, and programmable transfer characteristics for EGR valve, throttle, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, automotive-qualified alternatives, and supply assurance for production deployment.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX integrates a Triaxis® die sensitive to all three magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) enabling absolute angular or linear position decoding without external PCB. Its dual-mold DMP-4 package embeds up to four decoupling capacitors to meet stringent AEC-Q100 EMC/ESD requirements.
Internally, it uses a 15-bit ADC for raw signal processing, a DSP-based coordinate rotation algorithm (CoRDiC), and a 12-bit DAC for analog output or configurable PWM generation. Programmable diagnostics include field strength monitoring, broken-track detection, and thermal offset correction-enabled via EEPROM configuration without hardware changes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; supports 24 V absolute max for robust automotive transients. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +150°C; qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 for under-hood applications. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit analog (ratiometric) or 12-bit PWM; enables direct replacement of potentiometers with <0.025%VDD/LSB precision. |
| Magnetic Range | Normal range: 20–70 mT; extended ranges down to 10 mT supported with calibrated noise tolerance. |
| Accuracy (Angle) | ±0.3° typical XY-axis linearity at 25°C; ±1° max intrinsic error after factory trim (SMISM). |
| Diagnostics | On-chip open/short, over-voltage, under-voltage, and broken-track detection with programmable thresholds. |
| Package | DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) with straight leads (STD4 2.54 mm pitch); no PCB required for module integration. |
Pinout & Package
Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) with 4-pin through-hole configuration, RoHS-compliant, designed for direct solder-mounting into sensing modules without intermediate PCB. Dimensions per STD4 2.54 mm lead pitch (section 18.1.4, datasheet rev 007).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog/digital domains; dual VSS pins provide low-impedance return path and improve EMC immunity. |
| 2 | VDD | Power input (4.5–5.5 V); includes internal over-voltage protection up to +24 V and reverse voltage protection to −12 V. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz); supports push-pull or open-drain modes. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground terminal; enhances current return symmetry and reduces thermal drift in high-noise environments. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3D Hall Sensing | Measures BX, BY, BZ simultaneously to compute absolute angle or linear displacement from a single moving magnet-enabling compact, non-contact sensing without gear trains or wipers. |
| Programmable Transfer Characteristic | Up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration stored in EEPROM allows precise mapping of magnetic input to output across nonlinear mechanical paths (e.g., throttle cam profiles). |
| Dual Output Mode Selection | Field-configurable analog (ratiometric) or PWM output eliminates need for external ADC or microcontroller timing resources in cost-sensitive ECUs. |
| Integrated Decoupling Capacitors | Up to four embedded capacitors in DMP-4 package meet ISO 11452-4 ESD and CISPR 25 Class 5 EMC requirements without external components. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90365KGO-ABA-000-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with identical Triaxis® core, but requires external decoupling caps and PCB layout for EMC compliance. | Suitable for space-constrained PCB-mounted modules where DMP-4's no-PCB advantage is unnecessary. | Select when board area permits external capacitor placement and reflow assembly is preferred over through-hole mounting. |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit magnetic angle sensor with SPI interface; lacks integrated diagnostics, PWM output, and DMP-4 packaging. | Better suited for high-resolution encoder replacement in non-automotive industrial motion control with host MCU processing. | Choose only if digital interface and higher resolution outweigh need for self-contained diagnostics, analog/PWM flexibility, and automotive qualification. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX, the MLX90365 offers identical sensing performance but demands additional PCB-level EMC design effort, while the AS5055A requires external fault handling and lacks the DMP-4's module-integration advantage-making MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX optimal for drop-in, no-PCB automotive position modules.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range certified for MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX is AEC-Q100 qualified for continuous operation from -40°C to +150°C ambient temperature, with full electrical specification compliance across this range-including thermal offset correction and diagnostic functionality. This rating is validated per Grade 0 test conditions and applies directly to the DMP-4 packaged device shipped as MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX.
Does MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX require an external PCB for implementation?
No-MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX is designed for no-PCB module integration. Its DMP-4 package embeds the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors, eliminating the need for an external printed circuit board in the sensor assembly. This reduces bill-of-materials cost, improves mechanical robustness, and simplifies manufacturing for automotive position modules.
Can MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX output both analog and PWM signals simultaneously?
No-MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX supports either ratiometric analog output or PWM output, selected via EEPROM programming during final test. The output mode is fixed per unit and cannot be dynamically switched in-field. Both modes deliver 12-bit effective resolution, but only one is active at a time on the OUT pin.
What diagnostic capabilities does MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX provide?
MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX includes on-chip open/short circuit detection, over-voltage and under-voltage monitoring, broken-track diagnostics (for VDD/VSS disconnection), and field-strength validation. All diagnostics are programmable via EEPROM and reported through defined output voltage bands-enabling ASIL-B compliant fault detection without external monitoring circuitry.
Is MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX pin-compatible with other MLX90364 variants?
Yes-MLX90364LVS-AED-208-RX shares identical DMP-4 pinout (VSS-VDD-OUT-VSS) and electrical behavior with all MLX90364LVS-AED-xxx variants. Differences between AED-200, AED-208, etc., relate solely to internal trimming, capacitor configuration, and lead form (STD4 2.54 mm), not pin function or assignment.
