Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX 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 detection - deployed in throttle position sensing and EGR valve control systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX 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-258-RX 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 12-bit ADC, EEPROM-programmable firmware, and configurable filter stages (Filter=0/1/2) for response time tuning from 657 μs to 1494 μs.
It supports two output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD, 12-bit resolution) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz, ±1% initial tolerance), both with active diagnostics and clamping. The device operates across −40 °C to +150 °C and features built-in thermal offset correction at the DSP input level (±60 LSB15 drift over −40 °C to +125 °C).

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 no-PCB integration | Requires external decoupling and PCB layout; suitable for space-constrained but non-module designs | Select when board-level integration is preferred and ESD/EMC filtering can be implemented externally |
| MLX90393ELQ-ABA-000-SP | 3-axis Hall sensor with I²C interface and 18-bit resolution; no integrated DSP, PWM, or programmable transfer function | Needs external microcontroller for angle computation; used in non-automotive, lower-cost industrial position feedback | Select when flexible digital interface and higher raw resolution are prioritized over automotive qualification and self-contained output |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX, the MLX90365 requires external PCB and filtering but offers identical core sensing performance, while the MLX90393 trades automotive qualification and embedded signal processing for wider communication flexibility and higher raw magnetic resolution - making the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX optimal for module-integrated, safety-critical automotive position sensing.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX is qualified for operation from −40 °C to +150 °C ambient temperature and meets AEC-Q100 Grade 0 requirements. This range covers under-hood engine bay and transmission applications where sustained high-temperature exposure occurs, and thermal offset drift is actively compensated within the DSP stage.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX require an external PCB for implementation?
No, the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX uses a Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) that integrates necessary decoupling capacitors and eliminates the need for an external PCB. This enables direct embedding into magnetically coupled sensing modules - reducing bill-of-materials cost, assembly complexity, and potential failure points associated with flex circuits or connectors.
How does the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX handle magnetic field variations outside the normal 20–70 mT range?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX supports extended magnetic ranges: 15–20 mT (Extended Range #1) and 10–15 mT (Extended Range #2), with increased thermal offset drift (±180 LSB15) and noise (112 LSB15 pk-pk). Melexis recommends validating internal diagnostic headroom and potentially disabling amplitude-related diagnostics when operating in these ranges.
Can the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX output both analog and PWM signals simultaneously?
No, the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX supports only one active output mode at a time - either ratiometric analog or programmable PWM - selected during end-user programming. The output stage is shared, and simultaneous dual-mode operation is not supported by the hardware architecture or firmware.
What diagnostic capabilities does the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX provide?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-RX provides open/short circuit detection on the output, broken-track diagnostics for VDD/VSS lines, over-voltage and under-voltage monitoring, and field-strength validation. Diagnostic states are reported via defined voltage bands on the OUT pin, with programmable thresholds and passive diagnostic levels compliant with ISO 26262 ASIL-B requirements.
