Product details
Overview
MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP from Melexis is an automotive-grade absolute rotary and linear position sensor IC based on Triaxis® Hall technology, housed in a robust DMP-4 dual-mold package 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-AEE-203-SP datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its thermal offset correction capability (AEE variant), ratiometric analog/PWM dual-mode output, AEC-Q100 qualification, and no-PCB module integration suitability for high-reliability automotive sensing.
Technical Context
The MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP integrates a Triaxis® die sensitive to all three magnetic field components (BX, BY, BZ) enabling absolute angular and linear position decoding without external PCB. Its on-chip DSP computes position from raw Hall signals using CoRDiC-based rectangular-to-polar conversion and supports multi-point piecewise-linear programming of output transfer characteristics.
It features embedded diagnostics including open/short detection, over-voltage protection, under-voltage detection, and field-strength monitoring. The AEE-203 variant specifically includes thermal output offset correction, distinguishing it from non-AEE versions, and uses a 4-pin DMP-4 package with dual ground pins for enhanced EMC performance.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90364LVS-AED-203-SP | Lacks thermal output offset correction (AED vs AEE); identical pinout, package, and core functionality. | Suitable for less thermally demanding applications where <±0.2%VDD thermal drift is acceptable. | Select AED-203 only if thermal offset correction is not required and cost optimization is prioritized. |
| MLX90365GOB-ABA-000-TU | SOIC-8 packaged Triaxis® sensor with same die but requires external PCB and discrete decoupling; no integrated capacitors. | Used where board-level integration is preferred over module-level no-PCB designs; lacks DMP-4's EMC robustness. | Choose MLX90365 only when existing PCB layout supports SOIC-8 and external capacitor placement is feasible. |
Compared with MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP, the AED-203 offers identical form and function minus thermal offset correction, while the MLX90365 requires external PCB support and lacks integrated ESD/EMC capacitors-making the AEE-203 optimal for high-integrity, no-PCB automotive modules.

FAQ
What is the key differentiator of the MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP versus other MLX90364 variants?
The MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP incorporates thermal output offset correction-a feature exclusive to AEE-coded variants-which actively compensates for temperature-induced drift in the analog output stage. This results in ≤±0.2%VDD thermal error over −40 °C to +150 °C, making MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP the preferred choice for high-precision automotive position sensing where thermal stability is critical.
Does the MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP require an external PCB for operation?
No, the MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP does not require an external PCB. Its DMP-4 package integrates the Triaxis® sensing die and up to four decoupling capacitors within a single dual-mold structure, enabling direct module-level integration into magnet assemblies. This eliminates PCB-related failure modes and simplifies mechanical design for automotive position sensors.
What output modes does the MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP support, and how are they selected?
The MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP supports ratiometric analog (0–100% VDD) and PWM (100–1000 Hz) outputs, selected via end-user programming of the EEPROM. Mode configuration is performed using Melexis' PTC software and a standard I²C-compatible programmer-no hardware changes are needed to switch between modes after initial setup.
Is the MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP qualified for automotive safety standards?
Yes, the MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (−40 °C to +150 °C) and AEC-Q200 qualified. It includes comprehensive on-chip diagnostics-open/short, over-voltage, under-voltage, field strength, and broken-track detection-supporting ASIL-B system-level compliance in powertrain and chassis applications.
What magnetic configurations are supported by the MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP?
The MLX90364LVS-AEE-203-SP supports both rotary and linear position sensing via Triaxis® technology, which detects BX, BY, and BZ field components. It works with off-axis rotary magnets (0–360°), push-pull linear magnets, and floating magnets-enabling flexible mechanical design without retooling the IC. Magnetic range spans 10–70 mT with configurable diagnostics per range.
