AS5510-AB-Manual
1 General Description
The AS5510 is a linear Hall sensor with 10 bit resolution and I²C interface. It can measure absolute position of lateral movement of a simple 2-pole magnet. The typical arrangement is shown below in ( Figure 1 ).
Depending on the magnet size, a lateral stroke of 0.5~2mm can be measured with air gaps around 1.0mm. To conserve power, the AS5510 may be switched to a power down state when it is not used.

3 Board Description
The AS5510 adapter board is a simple circuit allowing to test and evaluate the AS5510 linear encoder quickly without having to build a test fixture or PCB.
The adapterboard must be attached to a microcontroller via the I²C bus, and supplied with a voltage of 2.5V ~ 3.6V. A simple 2-pole magnet is placed on the top of the encoder. www.ams.com Revision 1.2 - 21/08/13 page 3/11
