AS5601
12-Bit Programmable Contactless
Encoder
General Description
The AS5601 is an easy-to-program magnetic rotary position
sensor with incremental quadrature (A/B) and 12-bit digital
outputs. Additionally, the PUSH output indicates fast airgap
changes between the AS5601 and magnet which can be used
to implement a contactless pushbutton function in which the
knob can be pressed to move the magnet toward the AS5601.
This AS5601 is designed for contactless encoder applications,
and its robust design rejects the influence of any homogenous
external stray magnetic fields.
Based on planar Hall sensor technology, this device measures
the orthogonal component of the flux density (Bz) from an
external magnet.
The industry-standard I²C interface supports user
programming of non-volatile parameters in the AS5601 without
requiring a dedicated programmer.
The AS5601 also provides a smart low-power mode which
automatically reduces power consumption
Ordering Information and Content Guide appear at end of

AS5601 − Detailed Description
Detailed Description
The AS5601 is a Hall-based rotary magnetic position encoder
that converts the magnetic field component perpendicular to
the surface of the chip into voltages which are used to produce
incremental A/B outputs and absolute position indication in
registers that can be read over an industry-standard I²C bus.
The analog signals from the Hall sensors are first amplified and
filtered before being converted by the analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) into binary data. The output of the ADC is
processed by the hardwired CORDIC block (Coordinate Rotation
Digital Computer) to compute the angle and magnitude of the
magnetic field vector. The intensity of the magnetic field is used
by the automatic gain control (AGC) to adjust the amplification
level to compensate for temperature and magnetic field
variations.
The angle value provided by the CORDIC algorithm is used by
the internal logic to generate the incremental quadrature
signals A and B. The magnitude and AGC value is dynamically
monitored and generates the PUSH output for fast changes of
the airgap between the magnet and the AS5601. Very slow
changes are suppressed to provide a robust and reliable
pushbutton output that tolerates temperature variation and
magnet degradation.
The AS5601 is programmed through an industry-standard I²C
interface to write an on-chip one-time programmable (OTP)
memory. This interface can be used to program a zero angle
and to configure the chip.
Power Management
The AS5601 is powered from a 5.0V supply using the on-chip
LDO regulator, or it can be powered directly from a 3.3V supply.
The internal LDO is not intended to power other external ICs
and needs a 1μF capacitor to ground, as shown in Figure 11.
In 3.3V operation, the VDD5V and VDD3V3 pins must be tied
together. VDD is the voltage level present at the VDD5V pin.

AS5601 − Detailed Description
I²C Interface
The AS5601 supports the 2-wire Fast-mode Plus I²C-slave
protocol in device mode, in compliance with the NXP
Semiconductors (formerly Philips Semiconductors)
specification UM10204. A device that sends data onto the bus
is a transmitter and a device receiving data is a receiver. The
device that controls the message is called a master. The devices
that are controlled by the master are called slaves. A master
device generates the serial clock (SCL), controls the bus access,
and generates the START and STOP conditions that control the
bus. The AS5601 always operates as a slave on the I²C bus.
Connections to the bus are made through the open-drain I/O
lines SDA and the input SCL. Clock stretching is not included.
The host MCU (master) initiates data transfers. The 7-bit slave
address of the AS5601 is 0x36 (0110110 in binary).
Supported Modes
• Random/Sequential read
• Byte/Page write
• Automatic increment (ANGLE register)
• Standard-mode
• Fast-mode
• Fast–mode Plus
The SDA signal is the bidirectional data line. The SCL signal is
the clock generated by the I²C bus master to synchronize
sampling data from SDA. The maximum SCL frequency is 1 MHz.
Data is sampled on the rising edge of SCL.

2. Input filters on the SDA and SCL inputs suppress noise spikes of less than 50 ns.
3. I/O pins of Fast-mode and Fast-mode Plus devices must not load or drive the SDA and SCL lines if VDD is switched OFF.
4. Special-purpose devices such as multiplexers and switches may exceed this capacitance because they connect multiple paths

AS5601 − Detailed Description
I²C Modes
Invalid Addresses
There are two addresses used to access an AS5601 register. The
first is the slave address used to select the AS5601. All I²C bus
transactions include a slave address. The slave address of the
AS5601 is 0x36 (0110110 in binary). The second address is a
word address sent in the first byte transferred in a write
transaction. The word address selects a register on the AS5601.
The word address is loaded into the address pointer on the
AS5601. During subsequent read transactions and subsequent
bytes in the write transaction, the address pointer provides the
address of the selected register. The address pointer is
incremented after each byte is transferred, except for certain
read transactions to special registers.
If the user sets the address pointer to an invalid word address,
the address byte is not acknowledged (the A bit is high).
Nevertheless, a read or write cycle is possible. The address
pointer is increased after each byte.
Reading
When reading from an invalid address, the AS5601 returns all
zeros in the data bytes. The address pointer is incremented after
each byte. Sequential reads over the whole address range are
possible including address overflow.
Automatic increment of the address pointer for ANGLE, RAW
ANGLE, and MAGNITUDE registers:
These are special registers which suppress the automatic
increment of the address pointer on reads, so a re-read of these
registers requires no I²C write command to reload the address
pointer. This special treatment of the pointer is effective only if
the address pointer is set to the high byte of the register.
Writing
A write to an invalid address is not acknowledged by the
AS5601, although the address pointer is incremented. When the
address pointer points to a valid address again, a successful
write accessed is acknowledged. Page write over the whole
address range is possible including address overflow.
Supported Bus Protocol
Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
During data transfer, the data line must remain stable whenever
SCL is high. Changes in the data line while SCL is high are
interpreted as START or STOP conditions.
ams Datasheet
[v1-06] 2016-Apr-22
Page 13
Document Feedback
AS5601 − Detailed Description
Accordingly, the following bus conditions have been defined:
Bus Not Busy
Both SDA and SCL remain high.
Start Data Transfer
A change in the state of SDA from high to low while SCL is high
defines the START condition.
Stop Data Transfer
A change in the state of SDA from low to high while SCL is high
defines the STOP condition.
Data Valid
The state of the data line represents valid data when, after a
START condition, SDA is stable for the duration of the high
phase of SCL. The data on SDA must only be changed during
the low phase of SCL. There is one clock period per bit of data.
Each I²C bus transaction is initiated with a START condition and
terminated with a STOP condition. The number of data bytes
transferred between START and STOP conditions is not limited,
and is determined by the I²C bus master. The information is
transferred byte-wise and each receiver acknowledges with a
ninth bit.
Acknowledge
Each I²C slave device, when addressed, is obliged to generate
an acknowledge after the reception of each byte. The I²C bus
master device must generate an extra clock period for this
acknowledge bit.
A slave that acknowledges must pull down SDA during the
acknowledge clock period in such a way that SDA is stable low
during the high phase of the acknowledge clock period. Of
course, setup and hold times must be taken into account. A
master must signal an end of a read transaction by not
generating an acknowledge bit on the last byte that has been
clocked out of the slave. In this case, the slave must leave SDA
high to enable the master to generate the STOP condition.

Depending on the state of the R/W bit, two types of data transfer
are possible:
Data Transfer from a Master Transmitter to a Slave Receiver
The first byte transmitted by the master is the slave address,
followed by R/W = 0. Next follows a number of data bytes. The
slave returns an acknowledge bit after each received byte. If the
slave does not understand the command or data it sends a not
acknowledge (NACK). Data is transferred with the most
significant bit (MSB) first.
Data Transfer from a Slave Transmitter to a Master Receiver
The master transmits the first byte (the slave address). The slave
then returns an acknowledge bit, followed by the slave
transmitting a number of data bytes. The master returns an
acknowledge bit after all received bytes other than the last byte.
At the end of the last received byte, a NACK is returned. The
master generates all of the SCL clock periods and the START and
STOP conditions. A transfer is ended with a STOP condition or
with a repeated START condition. Because a repeated START
condition is also the beginning of the next serial transfer, the
bus is not released. Data is transferred with the most significant
bit (MSB) first.

AS5601 − Detailed Description
AS5601 Slave Modes
Slave Receiver Mode (Write Mode)
Serial data and clock are received through SDA and SCL. Each
byte is followed by an acknowledge bit or by a NACK depending
on whether the address pointer selects a valid address. START
and STOP conditions are recognized as the beginning and end
of a bus transaction. The slave address byte is in the first byte
received after the START condition. The 7-bit AS5601 address is
0x36 (0110110 in binary).
The 7-bit slave address is followed by the direction bit (R/W),
which, for a write, is 0 (low). After receiving and decoding the
slave address byte, the slave device drives an acknowledge on
SDA. After the AS5601 acknowledges the slave address and
write bit, the master transmits a register address (word address)
to the AS5601. This is loaded into the address pointer on the
AS5601. If the address is a valid readable address, the AS5601
answers by sending an acknowledge (A bit low). If the address
pointer selects an invalid address, a NACK is sent (A bit high).
The master may then transmit zero or more bytes of data. If the
address pointer selects an invalid address, the received data are
not stored. The address pointer will increment after each byte
transferred whether or not the address is valid. If the address
pointer reaches a valid position again, the AS5601 answers with
an acknowledge and stores the data. The master generates a
STOP condition to terminate the write transaction.

AS5601 − Detailed Description
Slave Transmitter Mode (Read Mode)
The first byte is received and handled as in the slave receiver
mode. However, in this mode, the direction bit indicates that
the AS5601 will drive data on SDA. START and STOP conditions
are recognized as the beginning and end of a bus transaction.
The slave address byte is the first byte received after the master
generates a START condition. The slave address byte contains
the 7-bit AS5601 address. The 7-bit slave address is followed by
the direction bit (R/W), which, for a read, is 1 (high). After
receiving and decoding the slave address byte, the slave device
drives an acknowledge on the SDA line. The AS5601 then begins
to transmit data starting with the register address pointed to
by the address pointer. If the address pointer is not written
before the initiation of a read transaction, the first address that
is read is the last one stored in the address pointer. The AS5601
must receive a not acknowledge (NACK) to end a read
transaction.

AS5601 − Register Description
ZPOS Registers
These registers are used to configure the zero position (ZPOS).
This register is used to align the electric grid of the incremental
output with the mechanical grid of an encoder switch.
CONF Register
The CONF register supports customizing the AS5601. Figure 20
shows the mapping of the CONF register.
PUSHTHR Register
This register is used to set-up the contactless pushbutton
function. This register must be adjusted according to the airgap
and magnet configuration. The swing of the pushbutton
function can be found by subtracting the AGC value of the
pressed button from the AGC value of the released button. The
threshold value for the contactless pushbutton should be half
of the swing.

AS5601 − Register Description
ANGLE/RAW ANGLE Register
The RAW ANGLE register contains the unmodified angle. The
zero adjusted and filtered output value is available in the ANGLE
register.
STATUS Register
The STATUS register provides bits that indicate the current state
of the AS5601.
Figure 21:
STATUS Register
Name
State When Bit Is High
MH
AGC minimum gain overflow, magnet too strong
ML
AGC maximum gain overflow, magnet too weak
MD
Magnet was detected
AGC Register
The AS5601 uses automatic gain control (AGC) in a closed loop
to compensate for variations of the magnetic field strength due
to changes of temperature, airgap between IC and magnet, and
magnet degradation. The AGC register indicates the gain. For
the most robust performance, the gain value should be in the
center of its range. The airgap of the physical system can be
adjusted to achieve this value.
In 5V operation, the AGC range is 0-255 counts. The AGC range
is reduced to 0-128 counts in 3.3V mode.
MAGNITUDE Register
The MAGNITUDE register indicates the magnitude value of the
internal CORDIC output.
Non-Volatile Memory (OTP)
The non-volatile memory is used to permanently program the
configuration. To program the non-volatile memory, the I²C
interface is used. The programming can be either performed in
the 5V supply mode or in the 3.3V operation mode but using a
minimum supply voltage of 3.3V and a 10 μF capacitor at the
VDD3V3 pin to ground. This 10 μF capacitor is needed only
during the programming of the device. Two different
commands are used to permanently program the device:

AS5601 − Register Description
Burn_Angle Command (ZPOS)
The host microcontroller can perform a permanent
programming of ZPOS with a BURN_ANGLE command. To
perform a BURN_ANGLE command, write the value 0x80 into
register 0xFF. The BURN_ANGLE command can be executed up
to 3 times. ZMCO shows how many times ZPOS have been
permanently written.
This command may only be executed if the presence of the
magnet is detected (MD = 1).
Burn_Setting Command (CONF)
The host microcontroller can perform a permanent writing of
CONFIG with a BURN_SETTING command. To perform a
BURN_SETTING command, write the value 0x40 into register
0xFF.
The BURN_ SETTING command can be performed only one time.
Zero Position and Resolution Programming
A fundamental feature is to program the zero position (ZPOS)
of the magnetic position encoder. This is required to adjust the
A/B outputs to the mechanical pattern (grid) of a contactless
encoder by setting the count transitions (transition of A and or
B) between two adjacent mechanical positions. An example of
a 3-bit contactless encoder is shown in Figure 22.
The electrical positions represent the positions where an A or
B transition occurs. The zero position can be placed in
correspondence of one of the electrical positions (yellow).
A BURN_ANGLE command can be executed up to 3 times to
permanently program the zero position. It can only be executed
if the presence of the magnet is detected (MD = 1).

AS5601 − Register Description
Pushbutton Detection
The AS5601 implements a pushbutton detection function
through a dynamic and relative measurement of the orthogonal
magnetic field strength. This pushbutton detection function
drives the PUSH output pin high when the AS5601 detects a
fast increase of the magnetic field (decrease of the airgap
between the magnet and the AS5601). After a fast decrease of
the magnetic field, the PUSH output is driven low.

The AS5601 continuously measures the magnetic field
intensity. The programmable threshold (PUSHTHR) is applied to
a long time average of the magnetic field. A crossing of the
current magnetic field and the threshold within a specified time
(tpu_slope) drives the PUSH output high.
Slow changes of the magnetic field, due for example to
temperature variations, magnet drift mechanical tolerances,
etc. do not generate any pushbutton detection events. The
push detection threshold follows the drifts over the time as
shown in Figure 28.

Step Response and Filter Settings
The AS5601 has a digital post-processing programmable filter
which can be set in fast or slow modes. The fast filter mode can
be enabled by setting a fast filter threshold in the FTH bits of
the CONF register.
If the fast filter is OFF, the step output response is controlled by
the slow linear filter as shown in Figure 30. The step response
of the slow filter is programmable with the SF bits in the CONF
register. Figure 29 shows the tradeoff between delay and noise
for the different SF bit settings.

For a fast step response and low noise after settling, the fast
filter can be enabled. The fast filter works only if the input
variation is greater than the fast filter threshold, otherwise the
output response is determined only by the slow filter. The fast
filter threshold is programmed with the FTH bits in the CONF
register. As shown in Figure 32, the fast filter (corresponds with
SF=11) kicks in and takes care of a fast settling. The larger noise
band of the fast filter is reduced again after the slow filter
(depicted is setting SF=00) has taken over. The different noise
bands are shown in Figure 29.

Hysteresis
To suppress spurious toggling of the output when the magnet
is not moving, a 1 to 3 LSB hysteresis of the 12-bit resolution
can be enabled with the HYST bits in the CONF register.
Magnet Detection
As a safety and diagnostic feature, the AS5601 indicates the
absence of the magnet. If the measured magnet field strength
goes below the minimum specified level (Bz_ERROR),
quadrature output is not updated and the MD bit in the STATUS
register is 0.

Low Power Modes
A digital state machine automatically manages the low power
modes to reduce the average current consumption. Three
low-power modes are available and can be enabled with the
PM bits in the CONF register.
In a low-power mode, the fast filter is automatically disabled,
because there is no need for a fast settling time if the output
refresh is as fast as the polling cycles.
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog timer allows saving power by switching into
LMP3 if the angle stays within the watchdog threshold of 4 LSB
for at least one minute, as shown in Figure 33. The watchdog
function can be enabled by setting the WD bit in the CONF
register.

AS5601 − Application Information
Magnet Requirements
The AS5601 requires a minimum magnetic field component Bz
perpendicular to the sensitive area on the chip. The center of
the sensitive area is in the center of the package.
Along the circumference of the Hall element circle the magnetic
field Bz should be sine-shaped. The magnetic field gradient of
Bz along the radius of the circle should be in the linear range
of the magnet to eliminate displacement error by the
differential measurement principle.
0.5mm - 3mm typ.
Figure 36:
Magnetic Field Bz and Typical Airgap
The typical airgap is between 0.5 mm and 3 mm, and it depends
on the selected magnet. A larger and stronger magnet allows a
larger airgap. Using the AGC value as a guide, the optimal airgap
can be found by adjusting the distance between the magnet
and the AS5601 so that the AGC value is in the center of its
range. The maximum allowed displacement of the rotational
axis of the reference magnet from the center of the package is
0.25 mm when using a magnet with a diameter of 6mm.
