AS5601-ASOT

AMS · Position Sensors · SOIC-8

AS5601-ASOT from AMS, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VDD5V power_in Positive voltage supply for 5V operation mode; requires 4.5V to 5.5V DC supply with 100 nF buffer capacitor to ground.
2 VDD3V3 power_in Positive voltage supply for 3.3V operation mode; requires 3.0V to 3.6V DC supply with 1-μF decoupling capacitor to ground in 5V mode and 10-μF capacitor during OTP programming.
3 PUSH output Contactless pushbutton function output driven high when fast airgap decrease detected; open-drain output with 2 mA maximum source/sink current and 50 pF capacitive load.
4 GND power_in Ground; common return path and reference for all voltage measurements.
5 B output Quadrature incremental encoder signal B output; part of A/B output pair with configurable resolution from 8 to 2048 positions; 2 mA maximum output current.
6 SDA bidirectional I²C serial data line; open-drain bidirectional connection to I²C bus master supporting Fast-mode Plus at up to 1 MHz with 4.7 kΩ external pull-up resistor.
7 SCL input I²C serial clock input from I²C bus master; maximum frequency 1 MHz; does not support clock stretching; requires 4.7 kΩ external pull-up resistor.
8 A output Quadrature incremental encoder signal A output; part of A/B output pair with configurable resolution from 8 to 2048 positions; 2 mA maximum output current.
