AS5048B in AS5048 / AS5600 Magnetic Encoders Family
The AS5048B is a high-resolution 14-bit magnetic rotary encoder sub-family from ams OSRAM designed for contactless angular position sensing. Utilizing Hall effect technology, these sensors measure the orthogonal component of the flux density from a rotating magnet above the chip. Unlike its SPI-based counterparts, the AS5048B features an I2C interface, making it ideal for multi-device bus configurations in motion control systems requiring high precision and robust performance in harsh, dust-filled environments.
Variants in This Sub-Family
| Part Number | Difference | Stock |
|---|---|---|
| AS5048B-TS_EK_AB (ams OSRAM) | TS_EK_AB | 314 |
Variants in the AS5048B sub-family primarily differ by their packaging and delivery formats, such as the HTSP suffix denoting high-temperature Tape and Reel. While the core sensing silicon remains consistent, ams OSRAM offers specific ordering codes for standalone ICs in TSSOP-14 packages versus evaluation tools like the AS5048B-TS_EK_AB adapter board, which facilitates rapid prototyping by breaking out the I2C and power pins for immediate integration with microcontrollers.
