AS5145/AS5145A/AS5145B
12-Bit Programmable Magnetic Rotary Encoder
ꢀ
ꢀ
Three incremental outputs
1 General Description
The AS5145 is a contact less magnetic rotary encoder for accurate
angular measurement over a full turn of 360 degrees.
Quadrature A/B (10 or 12 bit) and Index output signal (pre-
programmed versions available AS5145A for 10 bit and
AS5145B for 12 bit)
It is a system-on-chip, combining integrated Hall elements, analog
front end and digital signal processing in a single device.
ꢀ
ꢀ
User programmable zero position
Failure detection mode for magnet placement, monitoring, and
loss of power supply
To measure the angle, only a simple two-pole magnet, rotating over
the center of the chip, is required. The magnet may be placed above
or below the IC.

Red-Yellow-Green indicators display placement of magnet in Z-
axis
The absolute angle measurement provides instant indication of the
magnet’s angular position with a resolution of 0.0879º = 4096
positions per revolution. This digital data is available as a serial bit
stream and as a PWM signal.

Tolerant to magnet misalignment and gap variations
Wide temperature range: - 40ºC to +150ºC
An internal voltage regulator allows the AS5145 to operate at either
3.3V or 5V supplies.
Fully automotive qualified to AEC-Q100, grade 0
Small Pb-free package: SSOP 16 (5.3mm x 6.2mm)
