AS5050A Datasheet, PDF (1/31 Pages) ams AG – Low Power 10-Bit Magnetic Position Sensor
AS5050A
Low Power 10-Bit Magnetic Position
Sensor
General Description
The AS5050A is a single-chip on-axis magnetic rotary position
sensor with low voltage and low power features.
It includes an integrated Hall element array, a high resolution
ADC and a smart power management controller.
The angle position, alarm bits and magnetic field information
are transmitted over a 3-wire or 4-wire SPI interface to the
microcontroller.
The AS5050A is available in a compact QFN 16-pin 4x4x0.85 mm
package and specified over an operating temperature of -40ºC
to 85ºC.
Ordering Information and Content Guide appear at end of
datasheet.
