AS5045B Datasheet

A S5 04 5B
12-Bit Programmable Magnetic Position Sensor
1 General Description
Two digital 12-bit absolute outputs:
The AS5045B is a contact less magnetic position sensor for accurate
angular measurement over a full turn of 360 degrees.
It is a system-on-chip, combining integrated Hall elements, analog
front end and digital signal processing in a single device.
- Serial interface
- Pulse width modulated (PWM) output
Quadrature A/B/I output 12-bit
User programmable zero position
To measure the angle, only a simple two-pole magnet, rotating over
the center of the chip, is required. The magnet can be placed above
or below the IC.
The absolute angle measurement provides instant indication of the
magnet’s angular position with a resolution of 0.0879º = 4096
positions per revolution. This digital data is available as a serial bit
stream and as a PWM signal.
Failure detection mode for magnet placement, monitoring, and
loss of power supply
Red-Yellow-Green indicators display placement of magnet in Z-
axis
Serial read-out of multiple interconnected AS5045B devices
using Daisy Chain mode
Tolerant to magnet misalignment and gap variations
An internal voltage regulator allows the AS5045B to operate at either
3.3V or 5V supplies.
Wide temperature range: - 40ºC to +125ºC
Small Pb-free package: SSOP 16 (5.3mm x 6.2mm)
3 Applications
2 Key Features
Contact less high resolution rotary position sensor over a full

Pin 1 and 2 are the magnetic field change indicators, MagINCn and MagDECn (magnetic field strength increase or decrease through variation of
the distance between the magnet and the device). These outputs can be used to detect the valid magnetic field range. Furthermore those
indicators can also be used for contact-less push-button functionality.
Pin 3 and 4 are used for incremental angle information in 12-bit quadrature signal format.
Pin 6 Index output used for incremental angle information. (Zero position reference).
Pins 7, 15, and 16 are supply pins, pins 5, 13, and 14 are for internal use and must not be connected.
Pin 8 (PDIO) is used to program the zero-position into the OTP(see page 17). This pin is also used as digital input to shift serial data through the
device in Daisy Chain configuration, (see page 13).
Pin 11 Chip Select (CSn; active low) selects a device within a network of AS5045Bs and initiates serial data transfer. A logic high at CSn puts the
data output pin (DO) to tri-state and terminates serial data transfer. This pin is also used for alignment mode (see Alignment Mode on page 21)
and programming mode (see Programming the AS5045B on page 17).
Pin 12 allows a single wire output of the 12-bit absolute position value. The value is encoded into a pulse width modulated signal with 1µs pulse
width per step (1µs to 4096µs over a full turn). By using an external low pass filter, the digital PWM signal is converted into an analog voltage,
e.g. for making a direct replacement of potentiometers possible.

AS5045B
Datasheet - D e t a i l e d D e s c r i p t i o n
8 Detailed Description
The AS5045B is manufactured in a CMOS standard process and uses a spinning current Hall technology for sensing the magnetic field
distribution across the surface of the chip. The integrated Hall elements are placed around the center of the device and deliver a voltage
representation of the magnetic field at the surface of the IC.
Through Sigma-Delta Analog / Digital Conversion and Digital Signal-Processing (DSP) algorithms, the AS5045B provides accurate highresolution absolute angular position information. For this purpose a Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer (CORDIC) calculates the angle and
the magnitude of the Hall array signals.
The DSP is also used to provide digital information at the outputs MagINCn and MagDECn that indicate movements of the used magnet towards
or away from the device’s surface. A small low cost diametrically magnetized (two-pole) standard magnet provides the angular position
information (see Figure 16).
The AS5045B senses the orientation of the magnetic field and calculates a 12-bit binary code. This code can be accessed via a Synchronous
Serial Interface (SSI). In addition, an absolute angular representation is given by a Pulse Width Modulated signal at pin 12 (PWM). This PWM
signal output also allows the generation of a direct proportional analog voltage, by using an external Low-Pass-Filter. The AS5045B is tolerant to
magnet misalignment and magnetic stray fields due to differential measurement technique and Hall sensor conditioning circuitry.

If CSn changes to logic low, Data Out (DO) will change from high impedance (tri-state) to logic high and the read-out will be initiated.
After a minimum time tCLK FE, data is latched into the output shift register with the first falling edge of CLK.
Each subsequent rising CLK edge shifts out one bit of data.
The serial word contains 18 bits, the first 12 bits are the angular information D[11:0], the subsequent 6 bits contain system information,
about the validity of data such as OCF, COF, LIN, Parity and Magnetic Field status (increase/decrease).
A subsequent measurement is initiated by a “high” pulse at CSn with a minimum duration of tCSn.
Data Content
D11:D0 absolute angular position data (MSB is clocked out first)
OCF (Offset Compensation Finished), logic high indicates the finished Offset Compensation Algorithm
COF (Cordic Overflow), logic high indicates an out of range error in the CORDIC part. When this bit is set, the data at D11:D0 is invalid. The
absolute output maintains the last valid angular value.
This alarm can be resolved by bringing the magnet within the X-Y-Z tolerance limits.
LIN (Linearity Alarm), logic high indicates that the input field generates a critical output linearity.
When this bit is set, the data at D11:D0 can still be used, but can contain invalid data. This warning can be resolved by bringing the magnet within
the X-Y-Z tolerance limits.
Even Parity bit for transmission error detection of bits 1…17 (D11…D0, OCF, COF, LIN, MagINC, MagDEC)
Placing the magnet above the chip, angular values increase in clockwise direction by default.
Data D11:D0 is valid, when the status bits have the following configurations:

The two pins can also be combined with a single pull-up resistor. In this case, the signal is high when the magnetic field is in range. It is low in all
other cases (see Table 8).
8.2 Incremental Mode
The AS5045B has an internal interpolator block. This function is used if the input magnetic field is to fast and a code position is missing. In this
case an interpolation is done.
Incremental Power-up Lock Option. After power-up, the incremental outputs can optionally be locked or unlocked, depending on the
status of the CSn pin:
ext ≤ 5kΩ ). If Csn is low at power-up,
the incremental outputs (A, B, Index) will be high until the internal offset compensation is finished. This unique state (A=B=Index = high) can
be used as an indicator for the external controller to shorten the waiting time at power-up. Instead of waiting for the specified maximum
power up-time (0), the controller can start requesting data from the AS5045B as soon as the state (A=B=Index = high) is cleared.
CSn = low at power-up: CSn has an internal pull-up resistor and must be externally pulled low ( R
CSn = high or open at power-up: In this mode, the incremental outputs (A, B, Index) will remain at logic high state, until CSn
goes low or a
low pulse is applied at CSn. This mode allows intentional disabling of the incremental outputs until, for example the system microcontroller
is ready to receive data.

The hysteresis trimming is done at the final test (factory trimming) and set to 4 LSB, related to a 12-bit number.
Incremental Output Hysteresis. To avoid flickering incremental outputs at a stationary magnet position, a hysteresis is introduced. In case
of a rotational direction change, the incremental outputs have a hysteresis of 4 LSB. Regardless of the programmed incremental resolution, the
hysteresis of 4 LSB always corresponds to the highest resolution of 12-bit. In absolute terms, the hysteresis is set to 0.35 degrees for all
resolutions. For constant rotational directions, every magnet position change is indicated at the incremental outputs (see Figure 7). For example,
if the magnet turns clockwise from position “x+3“ to “x+4“, the incremental output would also indicate this position accordingly. A change of the
magnet’s rotational direction back to position “x+3“ means that the incremental output still remains unchanged for the duration of 4 LSB, until
position “x+2“is reached. Following this direction, the incremental outputs will again be updated with every change of the magnet position.

Incremental Output Validity. During power on the incremental output is kept stable high until the offset compensation is finished and the
CSn is low (internal Pull Up) the first time. In quadrature mode A = B = Index = high indicates an invalid output. If the interpolator recognizes a
difference larger than 128 steps between two samples it holds the last valid state. The interpolator synchronizes up again with the next valid
difference. This avoids undefined output burst, e.g. if no magnet is present.
8.3 Daisy Chain Mode
The Daisy Chain mode allows connection of several AS5045Bs in series, while still keeping just one digital input for data transfer (see “Data IN”
in Figure 8). This mode is accomplished by connecting the data output (DO; pin 9) to the data input (PDIO; pin 8) of the subsequent device. The
serial data of all connected devices is read from the DO pin of the first device in the chain. The length of the serial bit stream increases with every
connected device, it is n * (18+1) bits: n= number of devices. e.g. 38 bit for two devices, 57 bit for three devices, etc.
The last data bit of the first device (Parity) is followed by a dummy bit and the first data bit of the second device (D11), etc. (see Figure 9).

8.4 Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Output
The AS5045B provides a pulse width modulated output (PWM), whose duty cycle is proportional to the measured angle. For angle position 0 to
4094
t on ⋅ 4098
Position = ------------------------- – 1
( t on + t off )
(EQ 1)
Examples:
1. An angle position of 180° will generate a pulse width ton = 2049µs and a pause toff of 2049 µs resulting in Position = 2048 after the calculation: 2049 * 4098 / (2049 + 2049) -1 = 2048
2. An angle position of 359.8° will generate a pulse width ton = 4095µs and a pause toff of 3 µs resulting in Position = 4094 after the calculation: 4095 * 4098 / (4095 + 3) -1 = 4094
Exception:
1. An angle position of 359.9° will generate a pulse width ton = 4097µs and a pause toff of 1 µs resulting in Position = 4096 after the calculation: 4097 * 4098 / (4097 + 1) -1 = 4096
The PWM frequency is internally trimmed to an accuracy of ±5% (±10% over full temperature range). This tolerance can be cancelled by
measuring the complete duty cycle as shown above.

Changing the PWM Frequency
The PWM frequency of the AS5045B can be divided by two by setting a bit (PWMhalfEN) in the OTP register (see Programming the AS5045B on
page 17). With PWMhalfEN = 0 the PWM timing is as shown in Table 9:

8.5 Analog Output
An analog output can be generated by averaging the PWM signal, using an external active or passive low pass filter. The analog output voltage
is proportional to the angle: 0º= 0V; 360º = VDD5V.
Using this method, the AS5045B can be used as direct replacement of potentiometers.

R1 should be greater than or equal to 4k7 to avoid loading of the PWM output. Larger values of Rx and Cx will provide better filtering and less
ripple, but will also slow down the response time.

9 Application Information
The benefits of AS5045B are as follows:
Complete system-on-chip
Flexible system solution provides absolute and PWM outputs simultaneously
Ideal for applications in harsh environments due to contactless position sensing
No calibration required
No temperature compensation necessary
9.1 Programming the AS5045B
After power-on, programming the AS5045B is enabled with the rising edge of CSn with PDIO = high and CLK = low.
The AS5045B programming is a one-time-programming (OTP) method, based on poly silicon fuses. The advantage of this method is that a
programming voltage of only 3.3V to 3.6V is required for programming (either with 3.3V or 5V supply).
The OTP consists of 52 bits, of which 21 bits are available for user programming. The remaining 31 bits contain factory settings and a unique
chip identifier (Chip-ID).
A single OTP cell can be programmed only once. Per default, the cell is “0”; a programmed cell will contain a “1”. While it is not possible to reset
a programmed bit from “1” to “0”, multiple OTP writes are possible, as long as only unprogrammed “0”-bits are programmed to “1”.
Independent of the OTP programming, it is possible to overwrite the OTP register temporarily with an OTP write command at any time. This
setting will be cleared and overwritten with the hard programmed OTP settings at each power-up sequence or by a LOAD operation. Use
application note AN514X_10 to get more information about the programming options.
The OTP memory can be accessed in the following ways:
Load Operation: The Load operation reads the OTP fuses and loads the contents into the OTP register. A Load operation is automatically
executed after each power-on-reset.
Write Operation: The Write operation allows a temporary modification of the OTP register. It does not program the OTP. This operation can
be invoked multiple times and will remain set while the chip is supplied with power and while the OTP register is not modified with another
Write or Load operation.
Read Operation:
The Read operation reads the contents of the OTP register, for example to verify a Write command or to read the OTP
memory after a Load command.
Program Operation: The Program operation writes the contents of the OTP register permanently into the OTP ROM.
Analog Readback Operation: The Analog Readback operation allows a quantifiable verification of the programming. For each pro-
grammed or unprogrammed bit, there is a representative analog value (in essence, a resistor value) that is read to verify whether a bit has
been successfully programmed or not.
9.1.1
Zero Position Programming
Zero position programming is an OTP option that simplifies assembly of a system, as the magnet does not need to be manually adjusted to the
mechanical zero position. Once the assembly is completed, the mechanical and electrical zero positions can be matched by software. Any
position within a full turn can be defined as the permanent new zero position.
For zero position programming, the magnet is turned to the mechanical zero position (e.g. the “off”-position of a rotary switch) and the actual
angular value is read.
This value is written into the OTP register bits Z35:Z46 (see Figure 12).
Note: The zero position value can also be modified before programming, e.g. to program an electrical zero position that is 180º (half turn)
from the mechanical zero position, just add 2048 to the value read at the mechanical zero position and program the new value into the
OTP register.

Redundant Programming Option
In addition to the regular programming, a redundant programming option is available. This option allows that one selectable OTP bit can be set
to “1” (programmed state) by writing the location of that bit into a 5-bit address decoder. This address can be stored in bits RA4...RA0 in the OTP
user settings.
Example: setting RA4…0 to “00001” will select bit 51 = PWhalfEN_Indexwidth, “00010” selects bit 50 = MagCompEN, “10010” selects bit 34
=CCW, etc.

9.2 Alignment Mode
The alignment mode simplifies centering the magnet over the center of the chip to gain maximum accuracy.
Alignment mode can be enabled with the falling edge of CSn while PDIO = logic high (see Figure 13). The Data bits D11-D0 of the SSI change to
a 12-bit displacement amplitude output. A high value indicates large X or Y displacement, but also higher absolute magnetic field strength. The
magnet is properly aligned, when the difference between highest and lowest value over one full turn is at a minimum.
Under normal conditions, a properly aligned magnet will result in a reading of less than 128 over a full turn.
The MagINCn and MagDECn indicators will be = 1 when the alignment mode reading is < 128. At the same time, both hardware pins MagINCn
(#1) and MagDECn (#2) will be pulled to VSS. A properly aligned magnet will therefore produce a MagINCn = MagDECn = 1 signal throughout a
full 360º turn of the magnet.
Stronger magnets or short gaps between magnet and IC will show values larger than 128. These magnets are still properly aligned as long as
the difference between highest and lowest value over one full turn is at a minimum.
The Alignment mode can be reset to normal operation by a power-on-reset (disconnect / re-connect power supply) or by a falling edge on CSn
with PDIO = low.

9.3 3.3V / 5V Operation
The AS5045B operates either at 3.3V ±10% or at 5V ±10%. This is made possible by an internal 3.3V Low-Dropout (LDO) Voltage regulator.
The internal supply voltage is always taken from the output of the LDO, meaning that the internal blocks are always operating at 3.3V.
For 3.3V operation, the LDO must be bypassed by connecting VDD3V3 with VDD5V (see Figure 15).
For 5V operation, the 5V supply is connected to pin VDD5V, while VDD3V3 (LDO output) must be buffered by a 1...10µF capacitor, which is
supposed to be placed close to the supply pin (see Figure 15) with recommended 2.2µF).
Note: The VDD3V3 output is intended for internal use only It must not be loaded with an external load.
The output voltage of the digital interface I/O’s corresponds to the voltage at pin VDD5V, as the I/O buffers are supplied from this pin.

A buffer capacitor of 100nF is recommended in both cases close to pin VDD 5V. Note that pin VDD 3V3 must always be buffered by a capacitor.
It must not be left floating, as this may cause an instable internal 3.3V supply voltage which can lead to larger than normal jitter of the measured
angle.
9.4 Selecting Proper Magnet
Typically the magnet is 6mm in diameter and 2.5mm in height. Magnetic materials such as rare earth AlNiCo/SmCo5 or NdFeB are
recommended. The magnetic field strength perpendicular to the die surface has to be in the range of ±45mT…±75mT (peak).
The magnet’s field strength is verified using a gauss-meter. The magnetic field Bv at a given distance, along a concentric circle with a radius of
1.1mm (R1) is in the range of ±45mT…±75mT(see Figure 16).

9.4.2
Magnet Placement
The magnet’s center axis must be aligned within a displacement radius Rd of 0.25mm from the defined center of the IC. The magnet can be
placed below or above the device. The distance can be chosen such that the magnetic field on the die surface is within the specified limits (see
Figure 17). The typical distance “z” between the magnet and the package surface is 0.5mm to 1.5mm, provided the use of the recommended
magnet material and dimensions (6mm x 3mm). Larger distances are possible, as long as the required magnetic field strength stays within the
defined limits.
A magnetic field outside the specified range still can be detected by the chip. But the out-of-range condition will be indicated by MagINCn (pin 1)
and MagDECn (pin 2), (see Table 1).
9.5 Failure Diagnostics
The AS5045B also offers several diagnostic and failure detection features:
9.5.1
Magnetic Field Strength Diagnosis
By software: the MagINC and MagDEC status bits will both be high when the magnetic field is out of range.
By hardware: Pins #1 (MagINCn) and #2 (MagDECn) are open-drain outputs and will both be turned on (= low with external pull-up resistor)
when the magnetic field is out of range. If only one of the outputs are low, the magnet is either moving towards the chip (MagINCn) or away from
the chip (MagDECn).
9.5.2
Power Supply Failure Detection
By software: If the power supply to the AS5045B is interrupted, the digital data read by the SSI will be all “0”s. Data is only valid, when bit OCF
is high, hence a data stream with all “0”s is invalid. To ensure adequate low levels in the failure case, a pull-down resistor (~10kΩ) must be
added between pin DIO and VSS at the receiving side.
By hardware: The MagINCn and MagDECn pins are open drain outputs and require external pull-up resistors. In normal operation, these pins
are high ohmic and the outputs are high (see Table 8). In a failure case, either when the magnetic field is out of range of the power supply is
missing, these outputs will become low. To ensure adequate low levels in case of a broken power supply to the AS5045B, the pull-up resistors
(~10kΩ) from each pin must be connected to the positive supply at pin 16 (VDD5V).
By hardware: PWM output: The PWM output is a constant stream of pulses with 1kHz repetition frequency. In case of power loss, these pulses
are missing.
9.6 Angular Output Tolerances
9.6.1
Accuracy
Accuracy is defined as the error between measured angle and actual angle. It is influenced by several factors:
- The non-linearity of the analog-digital converters
- Internal gain and mismatch errors
- Non-linearity due to misalignment of the magnet
As a sum of all these errors, the accuracy with centered magnet = (Errmax – Errmin)/2 is specified as better than ±0.5 degrees @ 25ºC (see
Figure 19).
Misalignment of the magnet further reduces the accuracy. Figure 18 shows an example of a 3D-graph displaying non-linearity over XYmisalignment. The center of the square XY-area corresponds to a centered magnet (see dot in the center of the graph). The X- and Y- axis
extends to a misalignment of ±1mm in both directions. The total misalignment area of the graph covers a square of 2x2mm (79x79mil) with a
step size of 100µm.
For each misalignment step, the measurement as shown in Figure 19 is repeated and the accuracy
(Errmax – Errmin)/2 (e.g. 0.25º in Figure 19) is entered as the Z-axis in the 3D-graph.

The maximum non-linearity error on this example is better than ±1 degree (inner circle) over a misalignment radius of ~0.7mm. For volume
production, the placement tolerance of the IC within the package (±0.235mm) must also be taken into account.
The total nonlinearity error over process tolerances, temperature and a misalignment circle radius of 0.25mm is specified better than ±1.4
degrees. The magnet used for this measurement was a cylindrical NdFeB (Bomatec® BMN-35H) magnet with 6mm diameter and 2.5mm in
height.

9.6.2
Transition Noise
Transition noise is defined as the jitter in the transition between two steps. Due to the nature of the measurement principle (Hall sensors +
Preamplifier + ADC), there is always a certain degree of noise involved. This transition noise voltage results in an angular transition noise at the
outputs. It is specified as 0.06 degrees rms (1 sigma)x1.
This is the repeatability of an indicated angle at a given mechanical position. The transition noise has different implications on the type of output
that is used:
PWM interface:
If the PWM interface is used as an analog output by adding a low pass filter, the transition noise can be reduced by lowering the cutoff frequency of the filter. If the PWM interface is used as a digital interface with a counter at the receiving side, the transition
noise can be further reduced by averaging of readings.
Incremental mode: In incremental mode, the transition noise influences the period, width and phase shift of the output signals A, B and
Index. However, the algorithm used to generate the incremental outputs guarantees no missing or additional pulses even at high speeds (up
to 15,000 rpm and higher).
Note: Statistically, 1 sigma represents 68.27% of readings and 3 sigma represents 99.73% of readings.
9.6.3
High Speed Operation
Sampling Rate:
The AS5045B samples the angular value at a rate of 10.42k samples per second. Consequently, the absolute outputs are
updated each 96µs. At a stationary position of the magnet, the sampling rate creates no additional error.
Absolute Mode: At a sampling rate of 10.4kHz, the number of samples (n) per turn for a magnet rotating at high speed can be calculated by
n=
60 -------------------------rmp ⋅ 96μs
(EQ 3)
The upper speed limit is ~30,000 rpm. The only restriction at high speed is that there will be fewer samples per revolution as the speed
increases (see Table 7). Regardless of the rotational speed, the absolute angular value is always sampled at the highest resolution of 12-bit.
Incremental Mode: Incremental encoders are usually required to produce no missing pulses up to several thousand rpm. Therefore, the
AS5045B has a built-in interpolator, which ensures that there are no missing pulses at the incremental outputs for rotational speeds of up to
15,000 rpm, even at the highest resolution of 12 bits (4096 pulses per revolution).
9.6.4
Propagation Delays
The propagation delay is the delay between the time that the sample is taken until it is converted and available as angular data. This delay is
96µs.
Using the SSI interface for absolute data transmission, an additional delay must be considered, caused by the asynchronous sampling (0 … 1/
fsample) and the time it takes the external control unit to read and process the angular data from the chip (maximum clock rate = 1MHz, number
of bits per reading = 18).
Angular Error Caused by Propagation Delay. A rotating magnet will cause an angular error caused by the output propagation delay.
This error increases linearly with speed:
esampling = rpm * 6 * prop.delay
(EQ 4)
Where:
esampling = angular error [º]
rpm = rotating speed [rpm]
prop.delay = propagation delay [seconds]
Note: Since the propagation delay is known, it can be automatically compensated by the control unit processing the data from the AS5045B.
9.6.5
Internal Timing Tolerance
The AS5045B does not require an external ceramic resonator or quartz. All internal clock timings for the AS5045B are generated by an on-chip
RC oscillator. This oscillator is factory trimmed to ±5% accuracy at room temperature (±10% over full temperature range). This tolerance
influences the ADC sampling rate and the pulse width of the PWM output:
- Absolute output; SSI interface: A new angular value is updated every 96µs (typ).
- PWM output: A new angular value is updated every 96µs (typ). The PWM pulse timings Ton and Toff also have the same tolerance as the
internal oscillator. If only the PWM pulse width Ton is used to measure the angle, the resulting value also has this timing tolerance. However, this tolerance can be cancelled by measuring both Ton and Toff and calculating the angle from the duty cycle (see Pulse Width Mod-

9.6.6
Temperature
Magnetic Temperature Coefficient. One of the major benefits of the AS5045B compared to linear Hall sensors is that it is much less
sensitive to temperature. While linear Hall sensors require a compensation of the magnet’s temperature coefficients, the AS5045B automatically
compensates for the varying magnetic field strength over temperature. The magnet’s temperature drift does not need to be considered, as the
AS5045B operates with magnetic field strengths from ±45…±75mT.
Example: A NdFeB magnet has a field strength of 75mT @ –40ºC and a temperature coefficient of -0.12% per Kelvin. The temperature change
is from -40º to +125º = 165K.The magnetic field change is: 165 x -0.12% = -19.8%, which corresponds to 75mT at -40ºC and 60mT at 125ºC.
The AS5045B can compensate for this temperature related field strength change automatically, no user adjustment is required.
9.6.7
Accuracy over Temperature
The influence of temperature in the absolute accuracy is very low. While the accuracy is less than or equal to ±0.5º at room temperature, it can
increase to less than or equal to ±0.9º due to increasing noise at high temperatures.
Timing Tolerance over Temperature. The internal RC oscillator is factory trimmed to ±5%. Over temperature, this tolerance can increase
to ±10%. Generally, the timing tolerance has no influence in the accuracy or resolution of the system, as it is used mainly for internal clock
generation.
The only concern to the user is the width of the PWM output pulse, which relates directly to the timing tolerance of the internal oscillator. This
influence however can be cancelled by measuring the complete PWM duty cycle instead of just the PWM pulse.
