AS5600 - Overview

AS5600 Position Sensor​

The AS5600 is a magnetic rotary position sensor for non-contact 360° angle measurement. It outputs angle data as a 12-bit value (4096 positions per revolution) over I2C, and also supports analog voltage and PWM outputs. The board has two Qwiic (formerly easyC) connectors for easy daisy-chaining.
