Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AED-403-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° typical magnetic angle error, 12-bit resolution, and AEC-Q100 qualification for throttle, EGR, and turbo actuator sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection factors include its no-PCB DMP-4 module integration, programmable piecewise-linear transfer characteristic, thermal offset correction (AxE variant), open/short diagnostics, and dual-mold ESD/EMC robustness.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX 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 without mechanical contact. Its on-chip DSP computes angle via CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion and supports user-programmable 4-point or 17-point LNR transfer curves.
It integrates a 12-bit DAC for ratiometric analog output and a programmable PWM generator (100–1000 Hz), both with diagnostics including over-voltage protection, under-voltage detection, and broken-track monitoring. The device operates across −40°C to +150°C and features built-in decoupling capacitors within the DMP-4 package.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Resolution | 12-bit analog or PWM output - delivers 0.025%VDD/LSB precision for high-fidelity position feedback in closed-loop control systems. |
| Magnetic Angle Accuracy | ±0.3° typ. at 25°C (XY axis) - enables precise throttle valve or clutch fork positioning without external calibration. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +150°C - supports direct mounting in engine bay or transmission environments without heatsinking. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V automotive power rails and tolerant of transient overvoltage up to +24 V. |
| Diagnostics | Open/short, broken VDD/VSS, field strength, and PWM diagnostic modes - reduces need for external safety monitoring circuitry in ASIL-B designs. |
| Package | DMP-4 (Dual Mold Package) - integrates four internal decoupling capacitors, eliminating PCB requirement and simplifying module-level EMC compliance. |
| AEC Qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 0 & AEC-Q200 - certified for safety-critical automotive applications including EGR and turbocharger actuators. |
Pinout & Package
DMP-4 is a 4-pin, leaded, surface-mount module with integrated decoupling capacitors and no PCB required. Dimensions conform to STD2 2.54 mm pitch (section 18.1.3 of datasheet). Sensitive spot positioned per Figure 18.1.6.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS (Ground) | Primary ground reference for analog and digital domains; dual VSS pins provide low-impedance return path and reduce ground bounce in noisy environments. |
| 2 | VDD | 5 V supply input with reverse voltage protection (−12 V) and overvoltage tolerance (+24 V); powers internal regulator, DSP, and output stage. |
| 3 | OUT | Configurable output terminal supporting ratiometric analog (0.5–98.5% VDD) or PWM (100–1000 Hz); includes clamping, saturation, and diagnostic signaling capability. |
| 4 | VSS (Ground) | Secondary ground terminal - improves EMC performance and stabilizes output stage during fast PWM transitions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-PCB DMP-4 Integration | Eliminates printed circuit board from sensing modules - reduces assembly cost, improves mechanical robustness, and ensures repeatable magnetic coupling in harsh environments. |
| Programmable Transfer Characteristic | Supports 4-point or 17-point piecewise-linear calibration - enables compensation for non-ideal magnetic circuits and mechanical tolerances without host MCU intervention. |
| Triaxis® 3D Field Sensing | Measures BX, BY, BZ simultaneously - allows single-chip absolute angle or linear position sensing using off-axis or axial magnet configurations. |
| On-Chip Diagnostics | Real-time open/short, broken-track, over-voltage, and field-strength monitoring - meets functional safety requirements for ASIL-B automotive subsystems. |
| Thermal Offset Correction (AxE variant) | Compensates output drift over −40°C to +150°C - maintains <±0.3° angular accuracy across full automotive temperature range without external compensation. |

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® die but requires external decoupling capacitors and PCB integration. | Suitable for PCB-based designs where module-level integration is not required; lacks DMP-4's built-in EMC capacitors. | Select when board space permits discrete layout and cost-sensitive production favors standard SMT assembly. |
| AMS AS5055A-BQFT | 14-bit magnetic angle sensor with SPI interface; no integrated PWM/analog output or on-chip diagnostics. | Requires external MCU for signal processing and safety monitoring; not AEC-Q100 qualified out-of-box. | Choose only if digital interface and higher resolution outweigh need for self-contained analog/PWM output and automotive qualification. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX, the MLX90365 offers identical sensing performance but demands external PCB design and EMC filtering, while the AS5055A requires host MCU support and lacks automotive qualification - making MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX optimal for drop-in, no-PCB, safety-certified position modules.

The MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX operates from −40°C to +150°C, meeting automotive Grade 0 requirements per AEC-Q100. This range is validated across all electrical parameters including magnetic accuracy, output linearity, and diagnostic functionality - enabling direct placement on engine manifolds, turbo housings, and transmission assemblies without derating.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX require an external PCB?
No, the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX uses Melexis' DMP-4 Dual Mold Package, which integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors in a single molded module. This eliminates the need for a printed circuit board in the final sensing assembly, reducing bill-of-materials cost and improving mechanical stability in high-vibration environments.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX support?
The MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX supports two configurable output modes: ratiometric analog (0.5–98.5% VDD) and programmable PWM (100–1000 Hz). Both modes are user-selectable via EEPROM programming and include diagnostic signaling capability - allowing seamless integration into legacy potentiometer-replacement systems or modern digital control loops.
How is magnetic field sensitivity calibrated in the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX?
Magnetic sensitivity calibration in the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX is performed via end-user programmable parameters including SMISM, k-factor, and GAINMIN/GAINMAX stored in EEPROM. These allow fine-tuning of X/Y/Z channel gain and orthogonality correction to compensate for magnet tolerances and mechanical misalignment - achieving <±0.3° intrinsic angle error after factory trim.
Is the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the MLX90364LVS-AED-403-RX is fully AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified and also compliant with AEC-Q200 for passive components.
