Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP from Melexis is an automotive-grade 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. It operates across −40 °C to +150 °C and targets throttle, EGR valve, and turbo actuator position sensing in engine control units.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its DMP-4 dual-mold package with built-in decoupling capacitors, programmable piece-wise-linear transfer characteristic, ratiometric analog output compatibility with potentiometer interfaces, and AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood deployment.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP 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 coordinate rotation (CoRDiC) and supports end-user calibration of up to 17-point transfer functions.
It features dual-output capability-selectable ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz)-with programmable diagnostics, thermal offset correction, and internal 2.5 V regulator. The device implements active diagnostics (e.g., broken-track detection) and passive diagnostics (e.g., VSS/VDD fault reporting) using dedicated output-level thresholds.

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-ABA-000-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with identical Triaxis® die but requires external decoupling capacitors and PCB mounting | Lacks DMP-4's integrated capacitors and no-PCB integration; suited for board-based designs with space for discrete filtering | Select when layout allows PCB integration and external EMC components; not drop-in for DMP-4 module assemblies |
| MLX90364LVS-AEE-253-SP | Same DMP-4 package and pinout, but adds thermal output offset correction (AxE version) for enhanced high-temp stability | Better thermal drift performance (±0.2% VDD vs ±0.4% VDD) in analog output stage above 125 °C | Choose for applications requiring tighter analog output stability beyond 125 °C, such as turbocharger hot-side mounting |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP, the MLX90365GOB-ABA-000-TU demands external capacitors and PCB routing, increasing design complexity but offering reworkability; the MLX90364LVS-AEE-253-SP delivers superior thermal offset correction for analog output at elevated temperatures, making it preferable where analog linearity above 125 °C is critical.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP is rated for −40 °C to +150 °C ambient operation and qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 0. This range supports direct placement in engine compartments, near turbochargers, and inside transmission housings where thermal extremes are common. Its internal diagnostics remain functional across the full range, and thermal offset drift is characterized up to +150 °C.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP require an external PCB for implementation?
No - the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP uses Melexis' DMP-4 dual-mold package, which integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors. This eliminates the need for an external PCB in sensing modules, enabling direct integration into plastic housings or metal brackets. The device connects via four terminals only: VDD, OUT, and two VSS pins.
How does the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP achieve absolute position measurement?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP measures all three orthogonal components of magnetic flux density (BX, BY, BZ) using Triaxis® Hall technology. Its on-chip DSP computes angular position (e.g., 0–360°) or linear displacement from the vector relationship between these fields and a moving magnet - no reference point or index pulse is needed. This enables true absolute position reporting at power-on.
Can the output mode of the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP be changed after programming?
Yes - the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP supports field-programmable output modes via its EEPROM. Users can configure the device for ratiometric analog output (0–100% VDD) or PWM output (100–1000 Hz) using Melexis' PTM or EVK tools. Output mode selection persists through power cycles and can be updated during system integration or in-field calibration.
What diagnostic capabilities does the MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP provide?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-253-SP provides open/short circuit detection on the output line, over-voltage and under-voltage monitoring on VDD, and broken-track diagnostics for VSS/VDD faults. These are reported via programmable clamping levels on the OUT pin - for example, a broken VSS connection pulls OUT to >95% VDD. All diagnostics operate continuously and are configurable via EEPROM settings.
