Overview: AEAT-901x Magnetic Encoder
10, 12, 14, 16, or 18-bit Angular Detection Device Data Sheet Overview
The Broadcom® AEAT-901x series of magnetic encoders provides an integrated solution for angular detection. With ease of use in mind, these magnetic encoders are ideal for angular detection within 360°. Based on magnetic technologies, the device is noncontact and ensures reliable operations. It is able to provide absolute angle detection upon power-up, with a resolution of 0.0014 (18-bits version), 0.0055°(16-bits version), 0.022°(14-bits version), 0.0879°(12-bits version) or 0.35°(10-bits version), which is equivalent to 262144, 65536, 16384, 4096, and 1024 positions per revolution respectively. The positional data is provided in serial bit stream. There is no upper speed limit; the only restriction is that there will be fewer samples per revolution as the speed increases.
