Product details

Overview

MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP from Melexis is an AEC-Q100 qualified absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC based on Triaxis® Hall technology, 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 and over-voltage protection - deployed in automotive throttle and EGR valve position sensing.

For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its DMP-4 dual-mold package with built-in decoupling capacitors, programmable piecewise-linear transfer characteristic, ratiometric analog output compatibility with potentiometer interfaces, and automotive-grade thermal range (−40 °C to +150 °C).

Technical Context

The MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP integrates a Triaxis® sensing die capable of measuring all three orthogonal magnetic field components (B_X, B_Y, B_Z) to compute absolute angular or linear position without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and supports end-user programming of 4-point or 17-point LNR transfer curves.

It features dual-output capability: a 12-bit ratiometric analog output (0–100% V_DD) and a programmable PWM output (100–1000 Hz), both with active diagnostics, thermal offset correction, and configurable filter stages (Filter=0/1/2) that trade response time (657–1494 µs) for noise suppression (0.1–0.2° pk-pk).

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
Output Type	Programmable ratiometric analog (0–100% V_DD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz); enables drop-in replacement of potentiometers or digital feedback in closed-loop actuators.
Resolution & Accuracy	12-bit analog/PWM output; ±0.3° magnetic angle phase error (XY, 25 °C); ±60 LSB₁₅ thermal offset drift (−40 to +125 °C) - directly translates to <±0.3° angular error in rotary applications.
Supply Range	4.5–5.5 V nominal; survives +24 V overvoltage and −12 V reverse voltage - eliminates need for external TVS or reverse-polarity protection in harsh automotive environments.
Operating Temp	−40 °C to +150 °C ambient; AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified - validated for under-hood placement in EGR valves, turbo actuators, and transmission shift forks.
Diagnostics	On-chip open/short, broken-track (V_SS/V_DD), field-strength, and PWM diagnostics with programmable thresholds - reduces system-level fault detection complexity and BOM count.
Magnetic Range	Normal operation at 20–70 mT; extended ranges down to 10 mT supported with diagnostic reconfiguration - accommodates low-field magnet designs and mechanical tolerances.
Package	DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) with integrated decoupling capacitors - enables direct module integration without PCB, meeting stringent EMC/ESD requirements per AEC-Q200.

Pinout & Package

DMP-4 is a 4-pin, leaded, dual-molded surface-mount package with integrated ESD/EMC decoupling capacitors and no internal PCB. It features straight leads (STD4 2.54 mm pitch) and RoHS-compliant molding compound.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1	V_SS (Ground)	Primary ground reference for analog and digital domains; dual ground pins (1 & 4) reduce impedance and improve noise immunity in high-EMI environments.
2	V_DD	Power supply input (4.5–5.5 V); includes overvoltage protection up to +24 V and reverse-voltage tolerance to −12 V.
3	OUT	Configurable output terminal supporting ratiometric analog (push-pull or open-drain) or PWM; supports pull-up/pull-down loads from 1 kΩ to 10 kΩ.
4	V_SS (Ground)	Secondary ground return path; improves current loop integrity and minimizes ground bounce during diagnostic pulses.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Triaxis® 3-axis magnetic sensing	Measures B_X, B_Y, B_Z simultaneously to compute absolute angle or linear displacement without mechanical contact or gear trains.
Programmable transfer characteristic	End-user configurable 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear curve - enables precise calibration to non-ideal magnetic fields and mechanical stroke profiles.
Dual-output mode selection	Runtime-selectable analog (ratiometric) or PWM output - simplifies interface to legacy potentiometer-based ECUs or modern microcontroller ADCs/PWM inputs.
Integrated diagnostics	Real-time open/short, broken-track, field-strength, and PWM fault detection with user-defined thresholds - reduces need for external monitoring circuitry.
DMP-4 robust packaging	Dual-mold construction embeds up to four decoupling capacitors - achieves AEC-Q200 compliance and eliminates PCB-level filtering 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
MLX90365GOB-AAA-000-TU	SOIC-8 surface-mount variant of same Triaxis® die; lacks integrated DMP-4 capacitors and NoPCB capability.	Requires external PCB, decoupling caps, and ESD protection - suitable for space-constrained board-mounted designs but not module-integrated assemblies.	Select when PCB layout flexibility is prioritized over module-level integration and EMC robustness.
AMS AS5055A-BQFT	14-bit magnetic angle sensor with SPI interface; no analog/PWM dual output; requires external MCU for diagnostics.	Designed for high-resolution angular measurement in industrial encoders; lacks automotive qualification and integrated diagnostics.	Select only for non-automotive applications requiring higher resolution and digital bus interface, with added MCU overhead.

Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP, the MLX90365 offers identical core sensing but demands external filtering and PCB integration, while the AS5055A provides higher resolution but forfeits automotive qualification, self-contained diagnostics, and analog/PWM flexibility - making MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP uniquely suited for NoPCB, high-reliability automotive position modules.

FAQ

What is the primary sensing principle used in the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP?

The MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP uses Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal components (B_X, B_Y, B_Z) of the magnetic flux density. This enables computation of absolute angular position (0–360°) or linear displacement without mechanical contact. The same sensing die is used in MLX90365, but MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP integrates it into a DMP-4 package with built-in decoupling capacitors.

Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP require an external PCB for operation?

No - the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP is designed for NoPCB module integration. Its DMP-4 package embeds up to four decoupling capacitors and eliminates the need for a printed circuit board within the sensing assembly. This reduces system cost, improves EMC performance, and enhances mechanical robustness in automotive modules like throttle bodies and EGR valves.

What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP support, and how are they configured?

The MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP supports two configurable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% V_DD) and PWM (100–1000 Hz). Mode selection is performed via end-user programming of EEPROM registers using Melexis' PTM interface. Both outputs are available on the same OUT pin and include built-in diagnostics such as open/short detection and field-strength monitoring.

Is the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP qualified for automotive use?

Yes - the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40 °C to +150 °C) and AEC-Q200 qualified for passive components in its DMP-4 package. It meets automotive EMC and ESD requirements out-of-the-box due to integrated decoupling capacitors, making it suitable for under-hood applications including throttle position sensors, turbo actuators, and transmission shift position detectors.

How does the MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP handle thermal drift in position measurements?

The MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP compensates for thermal drift through two mechanisms: (1) thermal offset correction applied at the DSP input (±60 LSB₁₅ drift over −40 to +125 °C), and (2) optional thermal output offset correction in AEE variants. For MLX90364LVS-AED-250-SP (AED variant), factory-trimmed parameters minimize drift, yielding ≤±0.3° angular error across temperature - verified per AEC-Q100 test protocols.
