Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE 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 accuracy (XY axis), 12-bit resolution, and integrated diagnostics including open/short detection, over-voltage protection, and under-voltage detection. It operates across −40 °C to +150 °C and targets throttle, EGR valve, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its DMP-4 no-PCB module integration, programmable multi-point transfer characteristic, thermal offset correction capability (AxE variant), ratiometric analog output compatibility with potentiometer interfaces, and AEC-Q100 qualification for safety-critical automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ), enabling absolute angular position decoding up to 360° or linear displacement via external magnet geometry. Its on-chip DSP computes angle using CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar transformation.
It integrates a 12-bit DAC for analog output and a programmable PWM generator with 100–1000 Hz frequency range, both configurable via EEPROM. The device features dual ground pins, internal 2.5 V regulator, and programmable diagnostics including field strength monitoring, PWM diagnostic mode, and clamping-level control.

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 with identical Triaxis® core, but requires external PCB and discrete decoupling capacitors | Used where board-level integration is preferred over module-level embedding; lacks DMP-4's no-PCB advantage | Select when footprint constraints favor SOIC-8 or when existing designs already use MLX90365 layout |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit SPI-output magnetic encoder with lower temperature rating (−40 °C to +125 °C); no integrated diagnostics or PWM output | Suitable for non-safety-critical industrial encoders; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and automotive-grade ESD/EMC hardening | Select for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications requiring higher resolution but not functional safety compliance |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE, the MLX90365GOB-AAA-000-TU offers identical sensing performance but demands external PCB integration and additional EMC components, while the AMS AS5055A-BQFT provides higher resolution but omits critical automotive diagnostics, thermal compensation, and ruggedized packaging-making MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE uniquely suited for embedded, high-reliability powertrain modules.

FAQ
What is the primary sensing principle used by the MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE uses Triaxis® Hall technology to measure all three orthogonal components (BX, BY, BZ) of the magnetic flux density. This enables computation of absolute angular position (0–360°) or linear displacement via on-chip DSP and CoRDiC algorithms-without requiring external magnets with special orientation or complex mechanical coupling. The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE achieves this with no moving parts and no physical contact between sensor and target.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE require an external PCB for operation?
No. The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE is housed in a DMP-4 package that integrates the sensor die and up to four decoupling capacitors, eliminating the need for an external PCB. This "no-PCB" design simplifies mechanical integration into sensing modules, reduces EMI susceptibility, and enhances reliability in high-vibration environments. The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE connects directly via its four terminals to host wiring harnesses or connectors.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE support, and how are they configured?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE supports two user-selectable output modes: ratiometric analog (0.5–98% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Mode selection and transfer function parameters-including 4- or 17-point piecewise-linear calibration-are stored in on-chip EEPROM and programmed via Melexis' PTC interface. The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE retains configuration across power cycles without external memory.
How does the MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE handle diagnostic functions?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE includes comprehensive on-board diagnostics: open/short detection on OUT, over-voltage and under-voltage monitoring, field strength validation, and PWM-specific fault reporting. Diagnostic behavior (e.g., clamping levels, active/passive reporting) is fully programmable via EEPROM. These diagnostics allow the MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE to meet ASIL-B readiness requirements without external supervision circuitry.
Is the MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE qualified for automotive applications?
Yes. The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40 °C to +150 °C) and AEC-Q200 qualified for passive components in its integrated DMP-4 structure. It meets stringent automotive EMC standards (ISO 11452-2/4) due to on-package decoupling capacitors and is widely deployed in throttle bodies, EGR valves, and turbo actuators. The MLX90364LVS-AED-400-RE carries full traceability and lot-level documentation per IATF 16949 requirements.
