AS5600
Overview
The AS5600 is a programmable Hall-effect magnetic rotary position sensor designed for high-resolution contactless angle measurement. It converts the magnetic field component perpendicular to the chip surface into a 12-bit digital value, effectively replacing traditional potentiometers with a wear-free solution.
Why Choose This Part
It offers a high 12-bit resolution over a full 360-degree range while providing both I2C and analog/PWM output options for easy integration. The sensor includes a low-power mode to minimize current consumption and features a simple push-button calibration for defining the zero position and maximum angle.
Applications
Getting Started
Engineers can evaluate the sensor using the AS5600-POTUINO adapter board, which is designed for easy mounting over a small magnet. Configuration can be performed via the I2C interface to set output burnt-in settings or by using the internal registers for real-time angle streaming.
