contactlessmagneticdigital

Two-dimensional magnetic position sensor with digital coordinates output Features Contactless motion and position sensing Standard I²C interface Low power modes Interrupt for motion detection Benefits Highest reliability and durability Easy to use Sensor for battery operated devices Can be used as a wake-up Product parameters Resolution: 8-bit (x and y) Min. Pole Pair Length [mm] Interfaces: I²C Output: Digital coordinates (interface) Max. Speed [m/s] Package: QFN-16 Automotive Qualified Remark General Description The AS5013 is an absolute position sensor for miniature joystick applications with maximum strokes of +/-2.0mm in x- and y-direction based on contactless magnetic sensor technology. To measure xy-movement the sensor needs a simple 2-pole magnet. The absolute xy-position is measured with a resolution of 8 bit = 256 positions and it is provided as a digital value on the serial interface (I²C). With two decades of magnetic sensor system know-how, we have broad experience in selecting the most suitable magnets. ams experts recommend the following magnet suppliers.
