Getting Started

Connect the adapter board to a microcontroller using the SPI pins and provide a 3.3V or 5V power supply. Ensure a diametrically magnetized magnet is placed approximately 1-2mm above the center of the sensor IC for accurate tracking. Use the ams-OSRAM evaluation software or standard SPI libraries to read the 14-bit angle data registers.
