Motor Board for AS5048A
General description
The AS5048A Motor Board is designed to adapt standard size stepper motors with a contactless rotary position sensor for easy and fast evaluation of the IC in the application. The Motor Board includes the PCB with soldered IC, 4 magnet holders with different shaft diameters and the allen key. The 4 distance bolts and the motor are not included. On the connector you get the SPI Serial Peripheral Interface and PWM pulse width modulation output signals.

AS5048A
The AS5048A is a 14-bit rotary position sensor (previously known as encoder) for absolute angular measurement and with a PWM (=pulse width modulation) output over a full turn of 360° based on contactless magnetic sensor technology. This device fits perfectly for on-axis applications where a simple 2-pole magnet rotates above or below the sensor IC and the zero position can be programmed into the device simply with a SPI command. The absolute magnet angular position is measured with a resolution of 14 bit = 16384 positions per revolution and it is provided as a digital value on the serial interface (SPI).
