The AS5245 is a contactless magnetic angle encoder for
accurate measurement up to 360º and includes two AS5145
devices in a punched stacked leadframe. It is a system-onchip, combining integrated Hall elements, analog front end
and digital signal processing in a single device. To measure
the angle, only a simple two-pole magnet, rotating over the
center of the chip is required. The magnet may 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

2.1
Board description
The AS5245 adapter board is a simple circuit allowing test and evaluation without building a test fixture or PCB.
The PCB can be used as standalone unit or attached to a microcontroller. The standalone operation requires a 5V or 3.3V power
supply only; the magnet’s angle can be read on the PWM or analog output.

Figure 2: AS5245 adapter board mounting and dimension
A diametric magnet must be placed over on under the AS5245 encoder, and should be centered on the middle of the package with a
tolerance of 0.5mm.
The airgap between the magnet and the encoder casing should be maintained in the range 0.5mm~2mm.
The magnet holder must not be ferromagnetic. Materials as brass, copper, aluminum, stainless steel are the best choices to make
this part.

Figure 4: Using the SSI output with the adapter board
The most complete and accurate solution for a MCU to
read the angle of a magnet is the serial interface.
The serial word contains 18 bits and consists of 12 bit
angle value and some other indicator bits like MagINC,
MagDEC, which can be read at the same time.
Figure 5: Using the PWM output with the adapter board
The AS5245 provides a pulse width modulated output
(PWM), whose duty cycle is proportional to the measured
angle. The PWM signal (J2/4 pin #3) with a period of
1025us (1us step) and 5V pulse voltage (in case of 5V
power supply) can be connected to the capture/timer
input of a microcontroller in order to decode the angle
value.

Figure 8: Using Daisy-Chain mode with the adapter board
Te
By using more than one adapter board, a setup in daisy chain mode is possible.
In this mode capacitor C2 (refer to Fig.10) must be disconnected when using the 1nF capacitor shown in Fig.8. or
directly replaced by this capacitor.
The serial data of all connected devices is read from the DO pin of the first device in the chain. The Prog pin of the last
device in the chain should be connected to VSS. The length of the serial bit stream increases with every connected device
(board) by n * (18+1) bits.
Due to R = 100R and C = 1nF, the CLK is limited the maximum 1MHz.

Figure 9: Programming the AS5245
After power-on, programming of the AS5245 is enabled with the rising edge of CSn with Prog = high and CLK = low.
The OTP consists of 54 bits, of which 21 bits are available for user programming. The remaining 31 bits contain factory
settings and a unique chip identifier (Chip-ID).
54 bit must be serially shifted into the OTP register via the Prog-pin, where “mbit1” is the first bit to be entered (please refer
to datasheet). Data must be valid at the rising edge of CLK.
Te

ni
ca
After writing data into the OTP register, it can be permanently programmed by rising the Prog pin to the programming voltage
VPROG of 3.3V-3.6V. 54 CLK pulses must be applied to program the fuses.
For exiting the programming mode, the chip must be reset by a power-on-reset. The programmed data is available after the
next power-up.
