Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP from Melexis is an automotive-grade absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC based on Triaxis® Hall technology, housed in a robust Dual Mold Package (DMP-4) with integrated decoupling capacitors. It delivers 12-bit analog or PWM output, supports programmable transfer characteristics, and operates across −40 °C to +150 °C for throttle, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its ratiometric analog/PWM dual-mode output, built-in diagnostics (open/short, over/under-voltage), thermal offset correction capability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP integrates a Triaxis® sensing die measuring orthogonal (BX, BY) and parallel (BZ) magnetic flux components to compute absolute angular or linear position without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP performs real-time coordinate rotation (CoRDiC), multi-point piecewise-linear interpolation, and thermal compensation using factory-trimmed parameters (e.g., SMISM, k-factor).
It features a 12-bit DAC-based analog output stage and a programmable 100–1000 Hz PWM output with push-pull or open-drain drive modes. Internal diagnostics monitor supply voltage, output load integrity, and magnetic field strength, with configurable clamping and diagnostic band thresholds per ISO 26262 ASIL-B-aligned requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V nominal; withstands +24 V overvoltage and −12 V reverse polarity - enables direct battery connection in 12 V automotive systems. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0, suitable for engine bay and transmission-mounted applications. |
| Output Resolution | 12-bit analog (0.025 %VDD/LSB) and 12-bit PWM - provides <1° angular accuracy in rotary position sensing at 360° full scale. |
| Magnetic Range | 10 mT to 70 mT (3 ranges); intrinsic linearity error ≤ ±1° for XY axis - supports compact magnet designs with low-field tolerance. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short circuit, over/under-voltage, broken track, and field strength monitoring - reduces need for external safety circuitry in ASIL-B systems. |
| Package | DMP-4 with integrated ESD/EMC decoupling capacitors - eliminates PCB requirement and simplifies module-level integration. |

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-TU | SOIC-8 surface-mount variant with identical Triaxis® core, but requires external decoupling capacitors and PCB mounting. | Suitable for PCB-based designs where module integration is not required; lacks DMP-4's no-PCB advantage and integrated EMC filtering. | Select when board space permits external capacitor layout and higher assembly flexibility is prioritized over module-level ruggedness. |
| TLV493DW2B6HXTSA1 | 3D Hall sensor (Infineon) with I²C interface, 12-bit output, and −40 °C to +125 °C rating - no integrated capacitors or AEC-Q100 qualification. | Used in non-safety-critical consumer or industrial position sensing; lacks automotive diagnostics and extended temperature support. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive applications where I²C digital interface and lower temp range are acceptable. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP, the MLX90365 offers identical sensing performance but demands external PCB design and EMC mitigation, while the TLV493DW2B6HXTSA1 trades automotive robustness and analog/PWM flexibility for digital interface simplicity and lower cost - neither matches the DMP-4's plug-and-play module integration or full AEC-Q100 compliance.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP is an absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC that uses Triaxis® Hall technology to measure magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) and compute precise angular or linear position without physical contact. It outputs either a ratiometric analog voltage or a programmable PWM signal, making it ideal for automotive throttle, EGR, and turbo applications where reliability and accuracy are critical.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP require an external PCB?
No - the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP is packaged in 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 enables direct integration into plastic sensor housings, reducing system cost, size, and EMI susceptibility while meeting stringent automotive EMC requirements.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP support?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP supports two field-programmable output modes: ratiometric analog (0–100 %VDD) and pulse-width modulation (PWM) with frequency adjustable from 100 Hz to 1000 Hz. The output mode is configured via EEPROM programming during production or end-of-line calibration, allowing one hardware design to serve multiple system architectures.
Is the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP qualified for automotive use?
Yes - the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40 °C to +150 °C) and AEC-Q200 compliant, with built-in diagnostics including open/short detection, over/under-voltage monitoring, and magnetic field strength validation. Its DMP-4 package meets RoHS and automotive EMC standards, making it suitable for safety-critical powertrain and chassis applications.
How is the MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP calibrated for accuracy?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-300-SP supports end-user programmable calibration via EEPROM, including multi-point (up to 17-point) piecewise-linear transfer functions, thermal offset correction coefficients, and sensitivity trimming (SMISM/k-factor). Factory calibration ensures ≤±1° intrinsic linearity error for XY axis at 25 °C, and field calibration further compensates for mechanical tolerances and magnet non-uniformity.
