The AS5304 and AS5306 are austriamicrosystems’ new line of magnetic encoders for linear and off axis motion sensing applications. The AS5304 and AS5306 provide an easy-to-use, start & play solution for motion control applications as they require no configuration or calibration by the host controller after power up or during operation. The Devices can be used in a variety of motion sensing applications found in medical, industrial and consumer products. The AS5304 and AS5306 provide incremental A & B quadrature output signals with 160 steps per magnet pole pair, and an index pulse that is applied once every pole pair. The AS5304 and AS5306 encoder ICs also support rotary off axis applications by using a circular ring magnet mounted on the outside of a rotating shaft. Rotary off axis encoding solutions can be used in applications where the magnet cannot be placed directly at the end of a rotating shaft due to mechanical constraints…
