Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP 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), 12-bit resolution, and integrated diagnostics including open/short detection, over-voltage protection, and thermal offset correction - deployed in throttle position, EGR valve, and turbo actuator systems.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, programmable transfer characteristic (4- or 17-point LNR), dual-ground DMP-4 package with built-in decoupling capacitors, and ratiometric analog/PWM output mode selection.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP integrates a Triaxis® Hall sensing die sensitive to all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) within a Dual Mold Package (DMP-4), enabling contactless absolute angular (0–360°) or linear position measurement without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP computes position via CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion.
It features a 13.3 MHz main clock (±3% thermal drift), configurable FIR filter (0–2), 275–305 μs refresh rate, and supports two output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz, ±1% initial tolerance). Diagnostics include broken-track detection, field-strength monitoring, and EEPROM-programmable clamping levels.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Resolution | 12-bit analog or PWM output - enables 0.025% VDD/LSB precision for high-fidelity position feedback in closed-loop control. |
| Magnetic Angle Accuracy | ±0.3° phase error (XY axis, TA = 25°C) - ensures sub-degree angular fidelity critical for throttle and EGR valve positioning. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +150°C - validated for under-hood automotive environments per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 requirements. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V nominal - ratiometric operation maintains linearity across supply variation without external reference. |
| Diagnostic Coverage | Open/short circuit, over-voltage (24 V), under-voltage (2.25 V), and broken-track detection - reduces need for external safety monitoring circuits. |
| Package | DMP-4 with integrated decoupling capacitors - eliminates PCB requirement and meets stringent EMC/ESD requirements out-of-box. |
| PWM Frequency Range | 100–1000 Hz, programmable - supports flexible timing integration with engine control units and avoids audible noise in 200–400 Hz range. |
Pinout & Package
Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) with straight leads (STD4 2.54 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, no PCB required. Integrated decoupling capacitors reduce external component count and improve EMC robustness.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog/digital domains; dual ground pins enhance noise immunity in noisy automotive environments. |
| 2 | VDD | Power supply input (4.5–5.5 V); includes over-voltage protection up to +24 V and reverse voltage protection down to −12 V. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output terminal supporting ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz); push-pull or open-drain capable. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground return path - improves signal integrity and reduces common-mode noise in high-EMI applications. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® 3-axis Hall sensing | Measures BX, BY, BZ simultaneously to compute absolute angle or linear displacement without mechanical wipers or gears. |
| Programmable transfer characteristic | Supports 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear (LNR) calibration - enables precise end-user compensation for magnet and mechanical tolerances. |
| On-board diagnostics | Real-time open/short, over-voltage, under-voltage, and broken-track detection - reduces system-level safety validation effort. |
| Dual-ground DMP-4 package | Integrates up to four decoupling capacitors and eliminates PCB requirement - simplifies module design and improves EMC robustness. |
| Thermal offset correction | Compensates output drift over −40°C to +150°C - maintains <±0.3° angular accuracy without external temperature sensors. |

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® core, but requires external decoupling and PCB mounting. | Suitable for PCB-based modules where space permits; lacks DMP-4's integrated capacitors and no-PCB capability. | Select when board-level integration is preferred and EMC filtering can be implemented externally. |
| MLX90393ELQ-AAA-000-SP | 3-axis magnetic sensor with I²C interface, 16-bit resolution, and lower power (2.5 mA), but no analog/PWM output or built-in diagnostics. | Used in low-power, digital-bus systems (e.g., ADAS sensors); not drop-in for analog/PWM control loops requiring real-time output. | Choose for digital architectures needing high-resolution field vector data, not direct replacement for MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP's analog/PWM control interface. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP, the MLX90365 offers identical sensing performance but demands external PCB and filtering, while the MLX90393 provides higher resolution and digital flexibility at the cost of missing integrated diagnostics, ratiometric output, and automotive-ready packaging.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP operates from −40°C to +150°C and is qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 0 standards. This range is validated across all electrical parameters including magnetic accuracy, output linearity, and diagnostic functionality - making it suitable for direct mounting on engine components such as throttle bodies and EGR valves without additional thermal derating.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP require an external PCB?
No, the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP uses a Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) that integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors, eliminating the need for an external PCB. This "no-PCB" construction reduces bill-of-materials, improves EMC robustness, and enables direct integration into metal housings or plastic sensor modules - a key differentiator versus SOIC-8 alternatives like the MLX90365.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP support?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP supports two user-selectable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Both modes are configured via EEPROM programming and retain settings after power cycle. The analog mode is compatible with legacy potentiometer interfaces, while PWM offers noise-immune digital timing for microcontroller capture inputs.
How is magnetic accuracy specified for the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP?
Magnetic accuracy for the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP is specified as ±0.3° phase error on the XY axis at 25°C within the normal magnetic range (20–70 mT), with thermal drift of ≤0.01°/°C. Intrinsic linearity error is ±1° for XY and ±2.5° for XZ/YZ axes - correctable via end-user 4- or 17-point LNR calibration stored in on-chip EEPROM.
What diagnostics are built into the MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-258-SP includes open/short circuit detection on the OUT pin, over-voltage (up to +24 V) and under-voltage (2.25 V threshold) protection, broken-track diagnostics for VDD/VSS lines, and field-strength monitoring. All diagnostics generate defined output states (e.g., clamped low/high) readable by the host controller - reducing need for external safety circuitry in ASIL-B designs.
