Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE 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 and throttle position sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE 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-chain support for production deployment.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE integrates a Triaxis® sensing die with on-chip DSP, EEPROM, and a 12-bit DAC/PWM output stage in a dual-molded DMP-4 package. Its 3-axis magnetic field measurement (BX, BY, BZ) enables absolute angular decoding up to 360° or linear stroke detection without external PCBs.
It implements programmable piecewise-linear transfer characteristics, thermal offset correction (AxE version not applicable here), and configurable diagnostics including field strength monitoring and broken-track detection. The device operates at 13.3 MHz nominal clock frequency with 275–305 μs refresh rate and supports both ratiometric analog and 100–1000 Hz PWM output modes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V - Ensures compatibility with standard 5 V automotive power rails and stable operation under load dump transients. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +150°C - Qualified for under-hood applications including turbo actuators and EGR valves without derating. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit - Delivers 0.025%VDD/LSB analog precision or 0.35° angular resolution in 360° full-scale rotary mode. |
| Magnetic Range | 10–70 mT - Supports robust sensing across standard magnet strengths while enabling extended low-field operation down to 10 mT with validated diagnostics. |
| Refresh Rate | 275–305 μs - Enables >3 kHz effective sampling for real-time closed-loop control in throttle or clutch position feedback loops. |
| PWM Frequency | 100–1000 Hz - Programmable for noise immunity optimization; 500 Hz typical balances EMI reduction and dynamic response in engine management systems. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short, over-voltage, under-voltage, field strength - Provides ASIL-B–compatible fault detection without external circuitry. |
Pinout & Package
Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) with straight leads (STD4 2.54 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, no PCB required, integrates four internal decoupling capacitors for ESD/EMC robustness.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog and digital domains; dual ground pins ensure low-impedance return path and reduce common-mode noise. |
| 2 | VDD | 5 V supply input with reverse voltage protection (−12 V) and overvoltage tolerance (+24 V); powers internal regulator and sensing front-end. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output terminal supporting ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz); includes clamping and diagnostic signaling capability. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground pin dedicated to output stage and diagnostics; improves signal integrity and fault isolation in noisy environments. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-PCB module integration | Eliminates need for external PCB assembly-reduces BOM cost, improves mechanical reliability, and simplifies mounting in compact actuator housings. |
| Programmable transfer characteristic | Supports up to 17-point piecewise-linear calibration per axis, enabling precise compensation of magnet nonlinearity and mechanical tolerances in production. |
| Selectable analog or PWM output | Enables drop-in replacement of potentiometers (analog) or compatibility with microcontroller PWM capture peripherals-no hardware redesign needed. |
| On-board diagnostics | Delivers real-time fault flags (open/short, over-voltage, field strength) via same OUT pin, reducing wiring count and eliminating external monitoring ICs. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified | Validated for automotive safety-critical applications including throttle, EGR, and turbo actuation where failure modes must be detected within <100 ms. |

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-SP | SOIC-8 surface-mount package; requires external PCB and decoupling capacitors; identical Triaxis® core and 12-bit output capability. | Suitable for board-level integration where space allows PCB mounting; lacks DMP-4's no-PCB advantage and integrated ESD/EMC capacitance. | Select when existing layout uses SOIC-8 footprints or when higher-volume PCB assembly justifies added component count and test complexity. |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit resolution, SPI interface only, no analog/PWM output; requires external microcontroller for signal processing and diagnostics. | Targets high-precision rotary encoders in industrial servos; lacks automotive qualification, integrated diagnostics, and magnetic field range flexibility. | Choose only if SPI-based system architecture exists and ASIL-B compliance is not required; not a functional substitute for MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE in automotive modules. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE, the MLX90365 offers identical sensing performance but demands external PCB integration and discrete EMC components, while the AS5055A requires full system redesign for interface and diagnostics-neither matches the DMP-4's plug-and-play, no-PCB, automotive-qualified deployment.

FAQ
What is the package type and lead configuration of MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE?
MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE uses the DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) with straight leads configured per STD4 2.54 mm pitch. It contains four integrated decoupling capacitors and requires no printed circuit board-ideal for direct module embedding in actuators and valves.
Does MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE support both analog and PWM output simultaneously?
No-MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE supports either ratiometric analog or PWM output, selected via end-user programming. The output mode is fixed per device configuration and cannot be dynamically switched during operation without reprogramming EEPROM.
Is MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE qualified for automotive use?
Yes-MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40°C to +150°C) and AEC-Q200 compliant, with built-in diagnostics, over-voltage protection, and robust EMC performance validated for under-hood applications like throttle and EGR systems.
What magnetic field strength range is MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE optimized for?
MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE is optimized for 20–70 mT (normal range), but supports extended operation down to 10 mT with validated diagnostics. At 10–15 mT, thermal offset drift reaches ±270 LSB15, requiring application-specific calibration and diagnostic tuning.
How many pins does MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE have and what are their functions?
MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RE has four terminals: Pin 1 and Pin 4 are VSS (ground), Pin 2 is VDD (5 V supply), and Pin 3 is OUT (configurable analog/PWM output with diagnostics). Dual ground pins enhance noise immunity and fault isolation in automotive harness environments.
