1 General Description
2 Key Features
360º contactless angular position encoding
The AS5130 is a contactless magnetic rotary encoder
for accurate angular measurement over a full turn of
360º. It is a system-on-chip, combining integrated Hall
elements, analog front end and digital signal processing
in a single device. The angle can be measured using
only a simple two-pole magnet rotating over the center
of the chip. 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 8 bit = 256 positions per revolution. This
digital data is available as a serial bit stream and as a
PWM signal. The AS5130 can be operated in pulsed
mode (Vsupply=off), which reduces the average power
consumption significantly. During Vsupply=off, the
measured angle can be stored using an internal storage
register supplied by a low power voltage line. This mode
achieves very low power consumption during polling of
the rotary position of the magnet. If the position of the
magnet changes, then the motion detection feature
wakes up an external system. The device is capable of
counting the amount of magnet revolutions. The multi
turn counter value is stored in a register and can be read
in addition to the angle information. Furthermore, any
arbitrary position can be set as zero-position. The
system is tolerant to misalignment, air gap variations,
temperature variations and external magnetic fields and
high reliability due to non-contact sensing.
Two digital 8-bit absolute outputs:
- Serial interface
- Pulse width modulated (PWM) output
User programmable zero position
High speed: up to 30000 rpm
Failure detection mode for magnet placement monitoring and loss of power supply
Wide temperature range: - 40ºC to +125ºC
Multi Turn counter / Movement detection
Small Pb-free package: SSOP-16 (5.3mm x 6.2mm)
Automotive qualified to AEC-Q100, grade 1
3 Applications
The AS5130 is an ideal solution for Ignition key position
sensing, Steering wheel position sensing, Transmission
gearbox encoder, Front panel rotary switches and
replacement of Potentiometers.

Magnetic Input Range
The magnetic input range is defined by the AGC loop. This regulating loop keeps the Hall sensor output in the optimum
range for low SNR by adjusting the Hall bias current. This loop can adjust to a magnetic field strength variation of
±38%. The AGC output voltage is an indicator for the magnetic field.
The nominal magnetic field for a balanced AGC is defined by the Hall bias and the Hall sensitivity and can be set by a
variable gain in the signal path. The gain can be set in 8 steps in the OTP or by the SSI in a mirror register. The
resulting magnetic input range is a value of Bnominal±38% inside of a range of 32mT …75mT, if the trimming is
performed by the customer.

7 Detailed Description
Connecting the AS5130
The AS5130 can be connected to an external controller in several ways as listed below:
Serial 3-wire connection (default setting)
Serial 3-wire connection (OTP programming option)
1-wire PWM connection
Analog output
Analog Sin/Cos outputs with external interpolator
Serial 3-Wire Connection (Default Setting)
In this mode, the AS5130 is connected to the external controller via three SSI signals: Chip Select (CS), Clock (CLK)
input and DIO (Data) in/output. This configuration not only helps to read and write data but also defines different
operation modes. The data transfer in all cases is done via the DIO port.

Serial 3-Wire Connection (OTP Programming Option)
This mode provides with an option to configure the serial interface for programming the OTP register. Using a clock
input (CLK), DIO (Data) in/output and CS pin, it is possible to write and read out data from the OTP Register. The data
transfer is done via the DIO channel. For programming, the PROG pin must be connected to +8V. Analog readout for
trimming verification is mandatory.

1-Wire PWM Connection
If the line (PWM) is used as angle output, the total number of connections can be reduced to three, including the
supply lines. This type of configuration is especially useful for remote sensors. Low power mode is not possible in this
configuration. If the AS5130 angular data is invalid, the PWM output will remain at low state.

The minimum PWM pulse width tON (PWM = high) is 1 LSB @ 0º (Angle reading = 00H). 1LSB = nom. ,0.556µs. The
PWM pulse width increases with 1LSB per step. At the maximum angle 358.6º (Angle reading = FFH), the pulse width
tON (PWM = high) is 256 LSB and the pause width tOFF (PWM = low) is 1 LSB. This leads to a total period (tON + tOFF)
of 257LSB.

This means that the PWM pulse width is (position + 1) LSB, where position is 0….255.
The tolerance of the absolute pulse width and frequency can be eliminated by calculating the angle with the duty cycle
rather than with the absolute pulse width:
t ON
angle [ 8 - bit ] = ⎛ 257 --------------------------⎞ -1
⎝
t ON + t OFF⎠
(EQ 1)
results in an 8-bit value from 00H to FFH,
360
angle [ º ] = --------256
t ON ⎞
⎛ 257 -------------------------–1
⎝
t ON + t OFF⎠
(EQ 2)
results in a degree value from 0º ...358.6º
Note: The absolute frequency tolerance is eliminated by dividing tON by (tON+TOFF), as the change of the absolute
timing effects both TON and TOFF in the same way.
Analog Output
The AS5130 can generate a ratiometric analog output voltage by low-pass filtering the PWM output. Figure 8 shows a
simple passive 2nd order low pass filter as an example. In order to minimize the ripple on the analog output, the cut-off
frequency of the low pass filter should be well below the PWM base frequency.

Analog Sin/Cos Outputs with External Interpolator
By connecting C1 to VDD, the AS5130 provides analog Sine and Cosine outputs (SINP, COSP) of the Hall array frontend for test purposes. These outputs allow the user to perform the angle calculation by an external ADC + µC, e.g. to
compute the angle with a high resolution. In addition, the inverted Sinus and Cosine signals (SINN, COSN; see dotted
lines) are available for differential signal transmission.
The input resistance of the receiving amplifier or ADC should be greater than 100kΩ. The signal lines should be kept
as short as possible, longer lines should be shielded in order to achieve best noise performance.
The SINN / COSN / SINP / COSP signals are amplitude controlled to ~1.3Vp (differential) by the internal AGC
controller. The DC bias voltage is 2.25 V.
If the SINN and COSN outputs cannot be sampled simultaneously, it is recommended to disable the automatic gain
control (see Table 8) as the signal amplitudes may be changing between two readings of the external ADC. This may
lead to less accurate results.

RD2COS / RD2SIN: The Hall array configuration for cosine and sine channel can be read out by these commands,
initial values are 0.
SET TEST CFG 1: gen_rst HI triggers a digital reset.
WRITE CONFIG: go2sleep HI activates the sleep mode of the AS5130. The power consumption is significantly
reduced. go2sleep LO returns to normal operation mode. During sleep mode, the lock bit in command 0 and command
1 is LO.
WRITE CUST: With “wlsb_x” the threshold level for generation of a WAKE pulse is set (only important in polling mode).
The initial value is 4 LSB. No value lower than 4 LSB can be set. The maximum value is 127 LSB.
“gain_x” sets the gain in the signal
HYST_RST: “setHyst” enables an additional hysteresis of the digital output signal. It is enabled by default. Only after 2
consecutive equal signals the output is changed.
“rst_otp” forces the IC to read out the OTP in polling mode. This reset has to be performed after initial startup and
every WAKE signal.
“rst_multi” resets the multi turn counter to 0.
READ CUST: With this command “wlsb_x” and “gain_x” can be read out.
RD_BOTH: Angle and multi turn counter value can be read out simultaneously by this command. Due to limited data
size, the parity bit is not available in this command.
STORE REF: This command stores the actual angle as reference angle in the storage registers (only important in
polling mode). The output is the stored angle (angle_stored), a flag, if the voltage at DVDD is OK (store_ok), a flag, if
the supply voltage is OK (vdd_ok) and a check bit, if the register was written.
RD_MULTI: Command for read out of multi turn register (multiturn) and AGC value (agc). “Lock” indicates a locked
ADC and “parity” an even parity checksum.
RD_ANGLE: Command for read out of angle value and AGC value (agc). “Lock” indicates a locked ADC and “parity”
an even parity checksum.
Commands of the SSI in Extended Mode
For programming or readout of the OTP data, the chip has to be started with DVDD at a low voltage (polling mode off or
cap discharged) or the OTP reset has to be performed. If not, the OTP is not read out and the OTP data is not
available.

WRITE OTP: Writing of the OTP register. The written data is volatile. “Zero Angle” is the angle, which is set for zero
position. “Wake enable” enables the polling mode. “Sensitivity” is the gain setting in the signal path. “Redundancy is a
number of bits, which allows the customer to overwrite one of the customer OTP bits <0:11>.
PROG_OTP: Programming of the OTP register. Only Bits <0:15> can be programmed by the customer.
RD_OTP: Read out the content of the OTP register. Data written by WRITE_OTP and PROG_OTP is read out.
RD_OTP_ANA: Analog read out mode. The analog value of every OTP bit is available at pin 2 (PROG), which allows
for a verification of the fuse process. No data is available at the SSI.
OTP Programming
For programming of the OTP, an additional voltage has to be applied to the pin PROG. It has to be buffered by a fast
100nF capacitor (ceramic) and a 10µF capacitor. The information to be programmed is set by command 25. The OTP
bits 16 to 45 are used for AMS factory trimming and cannot be overwritten.

Programming Verification
After programming, the programmed OTP bits are verified in following two ways:
By Digital Verification: This is simply done by sending a READ OTP command (#0FH, Refer to Table 9). The
structure of this register is the same as for the OTP PROG or OTP WRITE commands.
By Analog Verification: By sending an ANALOG OTP READ command (#09H), pin PROG becomes an output,
sending an analog voltage with each clock, representing a sequence of the bits in the OTP register. A voltage of
<500mV indicates a correctly programmed bit (“1”) while a voltage level between 2.2V and 3.5V indicates a correctly
unprogrammed bit (“0”). Any voltage level in between indicates improper programming.

Multi Turn Counter
An 8-bit register is used for counting the magnet’s revolutions. With each zero transition in any direction, the output of
a special counter is incremented or decremented. The initial value after reset is 0 LSB.
The multi turn value is encoded as complement on two. Clockwise rotation gives increasing angle values and positive
turn count. Counter clockwise rotation exhibits decreasing angle values and a negative turn count respectively.

The counter output can be reset by using command 19 – HYST_RST. It is immediately reset by the rising clock edge of
this bit. Any zero crossing between the clock edge and the next counter readout changes the counter value.
AS5130 Status Indicators
Lock Status Bit
The Lock signal indicates whether the angle information is valid (ADC locked, Lock = high) or invalid (ADC unlocked,
Lock = low). To determine a valid angular signal at best performance, the following indicators should be set:
Lock = 1
AGC = >00H and < 2FH
Note: The angle signal may also be valid (Lock = 1), when the AGC is out of range (00H or 2FH), but the accuracy of
the AS5130 may be reduced due to the out of range condition of the magnetic field strength.

AS5130
Data Sheet - D e t a i l e d D e s c r i p t i o n
Magnetic Field Strength Indicators
The AS5130 is not only able to sense the angle of a rotating magnet, it can also measure the magnetic field strength
(and hence the vertical distance) of the magnet. This additional feature can be used for several purposes:
- as a safety feature by constantly monitoring the presence and proper vertical distance of the magnet
- as a state-of-health indicator, e.g. for a power-up self test
- as a pushbutton feature for rotate-and-push types of manual input devices
The magnetic field strength information is available in two forms – Magnetic field strength hardware indicator and
Magnetic field strength software indicator.
Magnetic Field Strength Hardware Indicator
Pin CAO (#1) will be low, when the magnetic field is too weak. The switching limit is determined by the value of the
AGC. If the AGC value is <3FH , the CAO output will be high (green range), If the AGC is at its upper limit (3FH), the
CAO output will be low (red range).
Magnetic Field Strength Software Indicator
D13:D7 in the serial data that is obtained by command READ ANGLE (see Table 8) contains the 6-bit AGC
information. The AGC is an automatic gain control that adjusts the internal signal amplitude obtained from the Hall
elements to a constant level. If the magnetic field is weak, e.g. with a large vertical gap between magnet and IC, with a
weak magnet or at elevated temperatures of the magnet, the AGC value will be high. Likewise, the AGC value will be
lower when the magnet is closer to the IC, when strong magnets are used and at low temperatures.
The best performance of the AS5130 will be achieved when operating within the AGC range. It will still be operational
outside the AGC range, but with reduced performance especially with a weak magnetic field due to increased noise.
Factors Influencing the AGC Value
In practical use, the AGC value will depend on several factors:
The initial strength of the magnet. Aging magnets may show a reducing magnetic field over time which results in
an increase of the AGC value. The effect of this phenomenon is relatively small and can easily be compensated by
the AGC.
The vertical distance of the magnet. Depending on the mechanical setup and assembly tolerances, there will
always be some variation of the vertical distance between magnet and IC over the lifetime of the application using
the AS5130. Again, vertical distance variations can be compensated by the AGC.
The temperature and material of the magnet. The recommended magnet for the AS5130 is a diametrically magnetized 6mm diameter magnet. Other magnets may also be used as long as they can maintain to operate the
AS5130 within the AGC range. Every magnet has a temperature dependence of the magnetic field strength. The
temperature coefficient of a magnet depends on the used material. At elevated temperatures, the magnetic field
strength of a magnet is reduced, resulting in an increase of the AGC value. At low temperatures, the magnetic field
strength is increased, resulting in a decrease of the AGC value. The variation of magnetic field strength over temperature is automatically compensated by the AGC.
OTP Sensitivity Adjustment
To obtain best performance and tolerance against temperature or vertical distance fluctuations, the AGC value at
normal operating temperature should be in the middle between minimum and maximum, hence it should be around 32
(20H). To facilitate the “vertical centering” of the magnet+IC assembly, the sensitivity of the AS5130 can be adjusted in
the OTP register in 8 steps (see Table 9). The OTP sensitivity setting corresponds to the customer register setting gain
<2:0>.
“Pushbutton” Feature
Using the magnetic field strength software and hardware indicators described above, the AS5130 provides a useful
method of detecting both rotation and vertical distance simultaneously. This is especially useful in applications
implementing a rotate-and-push type of human interface (e.g. in panel knobs and switches).
The CAO output is low, when the magnetic field is below the low limit (weak or no magnet) and high when the magnetic
field is above the low limit (in-range or strong magnet).
A finer detection of a vertical distance change, for example when only short vertical strokes are made by the
pushbutton, is achieved by memorizing the AGC value in normal operation and triggering on a change from that
nominal the AGC value to detect a vertical movement.

High Speed Operation
The AS5130 is using a fast tracking ADC (TADC) to determine the angle of the magnet. The TADC has a tracking rate
of 1.15µs (typ).
Once the TADC is synchronized with the angle, it sets the LOCK bit in the status register (see Table 8). In worst case,
usually at start-up, the TADC requires a maximum of 127 steps (127 * 1.15µS = 146,05µs) to lock. Once it is locked, it
requires only one cycle (1.15µs) to track the moving magnet.
The AS5130 can operate in locked mode at rotational speeds up to 30,000 rpm.
In Low Power Mode, the position of the TADC is frozen. It will continue from the frozen position once it is powered up
again. If the magnet has moved during the power down phase, several cycles will be required before the TADC is
locked again. The tracking time to lock in with the new magnet angle can be roughly calculated as:
tLOCK = 1.15µs* |NewPos – OldPos|
(EQ 3)
Where:
tLOCK = time required to acquire the new angle after power up from one of the reduced power modes [µs]
OldPos = Angle position when one of the reduced power modes is activated [º]
NewPos = Angle position after resuming from reduced power mode [º]
Propagation Delay
The Propagation delay is the time required from reading the magnetic field by the Hall sensors to calculating the angle
and making it available on the serial or PWM interface. While the propagation delay is usually negligible on low
speeds, it is an important parameter at high speeds. The longer the propagation delay, the larger becomes the angle
error for a rotating magnet as the magnet is moving while the angle is calculated. The position error increases linearly
with speed. The main factors that contribute to the propagation delay are discussed in detail further in this document.
Sampling Rate
For high speed applications, fast ADC’s are essential. The ADC sampling rate directly influences the propagation
delay. The fast tracking ADC used in the AS5130 with a tracking rate of only 1.15µs (typ) is a perfect fit for both high
speed and high performance.
Chip Internal Lowpass Filtering
A commonplace practice for systems using analog-to-digital converters is to filter the input signal by an anti-aliasing
filter. The filter characteristic must be chosen carefully to balance propagation delay and noise. The lowpass filter in the
AS5130 has a cutoff frequency of typ. 23.8kHz and the overall propagation delay in the analog signal path is typ.
15.6µs.

Revision 1.09

AS5130
Data Sheet - D e t a i l e d D e s c r i p t i o n
Digital Readout Rate
Aside from the chip-internal propagation delay, the time required to read and process the angle data must also be
considered. Due to its nature, a PWM signal is not very usable at high speeds, as you get only one reading per PWM
period. Increasing the PWM frequency may improve the situation but causes problems for the receiving controller to
resolve the PWM steps. The frequency on the AS5130 PWM output is typ. 1.95kHz with a resolution of 2µs/step. A
more suitable approach for high speed absolute angle measurement is using the serial interface. With a clock rate of
up to 6MHz, a complete set of data (21bits) can be read in >3.5µs.
Total Propagation Delay of the AS5130
The total propagation delay of the AS5130 is the delay in the analog signal path and the tracking rate of the ADC:
15.6µs + 1.15µs = 16.75µs
(EQ 4)
If only the SIN-/COS-outputs are used, the propagation delay is the analog signal path delay only (typ. 15.6µs).
Position Error Over Speed:
The angle error over speed caused by the propagation delay is calculated as:
-6
Δθpd = rpm * 6 * 16.75E
in degrees
(EQ 5)
In addition, the anti-aliasing filter causes an angle error calculated as:
Δθlpf = ArcTan [rpm / (60*f0)]
(EQ 6)

Reduced Power Modes
The AS5130 can be operated in three reduced power modes. All three modes have in common that they switch off or
freeze parts of the chip during intervals between measurements. In Low Power Mode or Ultra Low Power Mode, the
AS5130 is not operational, but due to the fast start-up, an angle measurement can be accomplished very quickly and
the chip can be switched to reduced power immediately after a valid measurement has been taken. Depending on the
intervals between measurements, very low average power consumption can be achieved using such a strobed
measurement mode.
Low Power Mode: reduced current consumption, very fast start-up. Ideal for short sampling intervals (<3ms).
Power Cycling mode: zero power consumption (externally switched off) during sampling intervals, but slower startup than Polling Mode. Ideal for sampling intervals 200ms.
Polling Mode: for reduction of the average power consumption; especially suited for battery powered applications.
Low Power Mode
The AS5130 can be put in Low Power Mode by simple serial commands, using the regular SSI commands. The
required serial command is WRITE CONFIG (17H, Figure 3 on page 10). The angle data is valid, as soon as the
LOCK- Flag is 1 (see Table 8).
In Reduced Power Modes, the AS5130 is inactive. The last state, e.g. the angle, AGC value, etc. is frozen and the chip
starts from this frozen state when it resumes active operation. This method provides much faster start-up than a “cold
start” from zero.

If the AS5130 is cycled between active and reduced current mode, a substantial reduction of the average supply
current can be achieved. The minimum dwelling time in active mode is the wake-up time. The actual active time
depends on how much the magnet has moved while the AS5130 was in reduced power mode. The angle data is valid,
when the status bit LOCK has been set (see Table 8). Once a valid angle has been measured, the AS5130 can be put
back to reduced power mode. The average power consumption can be calculated as:
I active∗ t on + I powerdown∗ t off
Iavg = --------------------------------------------------------------------t on + t off
sampling interval = ton + toff
(EQ 7)
Where:
Iavg = Average current consumption
Iactive = Current consumption in active mode
Ipower_down = Current consumption in reduced power mode
ton = Time period during which the chip is operated in active mode
toff = Time period during which the chip is in reduced power mode
Reducing Power Supply Peak Currents
An optional RC-filter (Rx/Cx) may be added to avoid peak currents in the power supply line when the AS5130 is
toggled between active and reduced power mode. Rx must be chosen such that it can maintain a VDD voltage of 4.5 –
5.5V under all conditions, especially during long active periods when the charge on Cx has expired. Cx should be
chosen such that it can support peak currents during the active operation period. For long active periods, Cx should be
large and Rx should be small.
Power Cycling Mode
The power cycling method shown in Figure 15 cycles the AS5130 by switching it on and off, using an external PNP
transistor high side switch. The current consumption in off-mode is zero. It also has the longest start-up time of all

The optional filter Rx/Cx may again be added to reduce peak currents in the 5V power supply line (see Reducing
Power Supply Peak Currents on page 23).
Polling Mode
Target of this mode is a reduction of the average power consumption. In this mode, the IC supply is pulsed, thereby
reducing the average power consumption to a fraction. The actual angle information and multi turn count value is not
lost; polling mode is especially suited for battery powered applications. The IC is furthermore capable of generating a
WAKE signal as soon as the magnet’s position has changed, but only if the supply of the IC is powered-on again. By
means of the WAKE signal, the system’s power consumption can be further decreased, if certain modules are
activated on demand.

The procedure is as follows:
1. Initial startup: The circuit starts up with invalid trim values, which are read back from the storage registers; the
command rst_otp (command 19 – 10011) must be sent to read out valid trim values from the OTP.
2. These values are copied to the storage registers if OTP<8> (Wake enable) is set (must be set for polling
mode).
3. The values of AGC counter, actual angle, multi turn counter, hysteresis setting, wake threshold and gain setting are continuously updated in the storage registers.
4. The actual angle is stored as a reference by sending command STORE REF (command 3 – 00011). without
this reference angle, a WAKE is generated at every startup.
5. The update of the storage registers is stopped if VDD drops below 4.45V and then the information is stored
(DVDD) at the next startup (VDD on), the values are read back from the storage registers and the measured
angle is compared with the stored reference angle; if the difference between both exceeds the threshold, a
WAKE pulse is generated.

Figure 18 shows the behavior of the wake up signal. The wake up signal will be low for twakeup = 10us. After that, the
wake up signal will go to tri-state condition. In case of an angle comparison with a result below the threshold, the signal
will remain in tri-state condition. After switching on AVDD, the system needs max. 250us to generate an angle with
maximum accuracy. A WAKE signal cannot be expected until the end of this period.
WAKE Interface
An open drain NMOS structure is used in the WAKE pad. In order to generate a clear output signal level, a pull up
resistor is required. The pad can drive 4mA.

Via SSI, the AS5130 will be able to toggle between active mode and low power mode. In active mode, the current
consumption is ~15mA and in sleep mode 2mA. The fastest possible startup time from low power mode is 150µs. The
AS5130 can be periodically switched between active and low power mode, the average power consumption depends
on the duty cycle. In order to read out the correct data, the active mode time must be larger than 150µs.

Once powered up for at least 2.5ms, the AS5130 can be operated in a pulsed mode, where it is periodically turned on/
off by a high side FET (PMOS) switching transistor with a low Ron (<10Ω). The on-time is at least 250µs in order to
perform one measurement. A valid measurement result can be verified by checking the lock bit (ADC is locked) in the
serial data stream.
After startup an OTP reset has to be performed in order to read out valid trimming information. Then a special SSI
command (STORE REF) copies the actual angle into a buffered reference angle register. Now the AS5130 can be
turned off. Special registers will be buffered by the low power supply and will keep the actual settings. After a ton of min.
250 us, the actual angle is compared with the stored reference angle. If the angle difference is larger than a threshold
value (wlsb, SSI command WRITE CUST), the AS5130 will send an interrupt request to an external device via the
WAKE pin.
Due to the internal POR level of the IC, ton starts after VDD has reached 4.3V (worst case POR level).The average
power consumption in this pulsed mode depends on the supply current in active mode and the duty cycle of the on/off
pulse:
I active∗ t on

Accuracy of the Encoder system
This section enlightens on the individual factors that influence the accuracy of the encoder system, and provides
techniques to improve them. Accuracy is defined as the difference between measured angle and actual angle. This is
not to be confused with resolution, which is the smallest step that the system can resolve. The two parameters are not
necessarily linked together. A high resolution encoder may not necessarily be highly accurate as well.
Quantization Error
There is however a direct link between resolution and accuracy, which is the quantization error:

The resolution of the encoder determines the smallest step size. The angle error caused by quantization cannot get
better than ± ½ LSB. As shown in Figure 23, a higher resolution system (right picture) has a smaller quantization error,
as the step size is smaller. For the AS5130, the quantization error is ± ½ LSB = ± 0.7º

Figure 24 shows a typical example of an error curve over a full turn of 360º at a given X-Y- displacement. The curve
includes the quantization error, transition noise and the system error. The total error is ~2.2º peak/peak (+/-1.1º).
The sawtooth-like quantization error (see Figure 23) can be reduced by averaging, provided that the magnet is in
constant motion and there are an adequate number of samples available. The solid bold line in Figure 24 shows the
moving average of 16 samples. The INL (intrinsic non-linearity) is reduced to from ~+/- 1.1º down to ~ +/-0.3º. The
averaging however, also increases the total propagation delay, therefore it may be considered for low speeds only or
adaptive; depending on speed (see Position Error Over Speed: on page 22).

Vertical Distance of the Magnet
The chip-internal automatic gain control (AGC) regulates the input signal amplitude for the tracking-ADC to a constant
value. This improves the accuracy of the encoder and enhances the tolerance for the vertical distance of the magnet.

Linearity [°]
As shown in Figure 25, the AGC value (left Y-axis) increases with vertical distance of the magnet. Consequently, it is a
good indicator for determining the vertical position of the magnet, for example as a pushbutton feature, as an indicator
for a defective magnet or as a preventive warning (e.g. for wear on a ball bearing etc.) when the nominal AGC value
drifts away. If the magnet is too close or the magnetic field is too strong, the AGC will be reading 0. If the magnet is too
far away (or missing) or if the magnetic field is too weak, the AGC will be reading 63 (3FH).
The AS5130 will still operate outside the AGC range, but the accuracy may be reduced as the signal amplitude can no
longer be kept at a constant level. The linearity curve in Figure 25 (right Y-axis) shows that the accuracy of the AS5130
is best within the AGC range, even slightly better at small airgaps (0.4 – 0.8mm). At very short distances (0 – 0.1) the
accuracy is reduced, mainly due to nonlinearities in the magnetic field. At larger distances, outside the AGC range
(~2.0 – 2.5mm and more) the accuracy is still very good, only slightly decreased from the nominal accuracy. Since the
field strength of a magnet changes with temperature, the AGC will also change when the temperature of the magnet
changes. At low temperatures, the magnetic field will be stronger and the AGC value will decrease. At elevated
temperatures, the magnetic field will be weaker and the AGC value will increase.
Choosing the Proper Magnet
There is no strict requirement on the type or shape of the magnet to be used with the AS5130. It can be cylindrical as
well as square in shape. The key parameter is that the vertical magnetic field Bz measured at a radius of 1mm from the
rotation axis is sinusoidal with a peak amplitude of 20..80mT (see Figure 26).

Magnet Placement
Ideally, the center of the magnet, the diagonal center of the IC and the rotation axis of the magnet should be in one
vertical line. The lateral displacement of the magnet should be within +/-0.25mm from the IC package center or +/0.5mm from the IC center, including the placement of the chip within the IC package. The vertical distance should be
chosen such that the magnetic field on the die surface is within the specified limits. The typical distance “z” between
the magnet and the package surface is 0.5mm to 1.8mm with the recommended magnet (6mm x 2.5mm). Larger gaps
are possible, as long as the required magnetic field strength stays within the defined limits. A magnetic field outside the
specified range may still produce acceptable results, but with reduced accuracy. The out-of-range condition will be
indicated, when the AGC is at the limits (AGC= 0 : field too strong; AGC=63=(3FH): field too weak or missing magnet).

X-displacement [mm]
Figure 27 shows a cross sectional view of the vertical magnetic field component Bz between the north and south pole
of a 6mm diameter magnet, measured at a vertical distance of 1mm. The poles of the magnet (maximum level) are
about 2.8mm from the magnet center, which is almost at the outer magnet edges. The magnetic field reaches a peak
amplitude of ~+/-106mT at the poles. The Hall elements are located at a radius of 1mm (indicated as squares at the
bottom of the graph). Due to the side view, the two Hall elements at the Y-axis are overlapping at X=0mm, therefore
only 3 Hall elements are shown. At 1mm radius, the peak amplitude is ~+/-46mT, respectively a differential amplitude
of 92mT. The vertical magnetic field Bz follows a fairly linear pattern up to about 1.5mm radius. Consequently, even if
the magnet is not perfectly centered, the differential amplitude will be the same as for a centered magnet.
For example, if the magnet is misaligned in X-axis by -0.5mm, the two X-Hall sensors will measure 70mT (@x= 1.5mm) and -22mt (@x= -0.5mm). Again, the differential amplitude is 92mT. At larger displacements however, the Bz
amplitude becomes nonlinear, which results in larger errors that mainly affect the accuracy of the system (see Figure
29).

Figure 28 shows the same vertical field component as Figure 27, but in a 3-dimensional view over an area of +/-4mm

Lateral Displacement of the Magnet
As shown in the magnet specifications (see Parameters for Magnet under Electrical Characteristics on page 6), the
recommended horizontal position of the magnet axis with respect to the IC package center is within a circle of 0.25mm
radius. This includes the placement tolerance of the IC within the package.
Figure 29 shows a typical error curve at a medium vertical distance of the magnet around 1.2mm (AGC = 24). The Xand Y- axis of the graph indicate the lateral displacement of the magnet center with respect to the IC center. At X=Y=0,
the magnet is perfectly centered over the IC. The total displacement plotted on the graph is for ±1mm in both
directions. The Z-axis displays the worst case INL error over a full turn at each given X-and Y- displacement. The error
includes the quantization error of ±0.7º (refer to Quantization Error on page 29). For example, the accuracy for a
centered magnet is between 1.0 – 1.5º (spec = 2º over full temperature range). Within a radius of 0.5mm, the accuracy
is better than 2.0º (spec = 3º over temperature).

Magnet Size
Figure 27 to Figure 29 illustrate a cylindrical magnet with a diameter of 6mm. Smaller magnets may also be used, but
since the poles are closer together, the linear range will also be smaller and consequently the tolerance for lateral
misalignment will also be smaller.
If the ±0.25mm lateral misalignment radius (rotation axis to IC package center) is too tight, a larger magnet can be
used. Larger magnets have a larger linear range and allow more misalignment. However at the same time the slope of
the magnet is more flat, which results in a lower differential amplitude. This requires either a stronger magnet or a
smaller gap between IC and magnet in order to operate in the amplitude-controlled area (AGC >0 and AGC < 63).
In any case, if a magnet other than the recommended 6mm diameter magnet is used, two parameters should be
verified:
Verify, that the magnetic field produces a sinusoidal wave, when the magnet is rotated. Note that this can be done
with the SIN-/COS- outputs of the AS5130; e.g. rotate the magnet at constant speed and analyze the SIN- (or
COS-) output with an FFT-analyzer. It is recommended to disable the AGC for this test (see Analog Sin/Cos Outputs with External Interpolator on page 14).
Verify that the Bz-Curve between the poles is as linear as possible (see Figure 27). This curve may be available
from the magnet supplier(s). Alternatively, the SIN- or COS- output of the AS5130 may also be used together with
an X-Y- table to get a Bz-scan of the magnet (as in Figure 27 or Figure 28). Furthermore, the sinewave tests

described above may be re-run at defined X-and Y- misplacements of the magnet to determine the maximum

Cos Outputs with External Interpolator on page 14).
