The Angle 10 Click Board™ is a compact add-on board that detects the absolute angular position of a permanent magnet. This board features the AS5070A, a high-resolution angular position sensor with an analogue output for precise absolute angle measurement from ams AG. Based on a Hall sensor technology, the AS5070A measures the orthogonal component of the flux density over a full-turn rotation. It compensates for external stray magnetic fields with a robust architecture based on a 14-bit sensor array and analogue front end. Only a simple two-pole magnet rotating over the centre of the AS5070A is required to measure the angle, providing an instant indication of the magnet’s angular position. This Click board™ is suitable for contactless potentiometers, knobs, and other angular position measurement solutions.
The Angle 10 Click Board™ is supported by a mikroSDK-compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click board™ thoroughly is a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.
