Data sheet ® AM256D01_13 Issue 13, 22th May 2017 AM256 angular magnetic encoder IC The AM256 is a compact solution for angular position sensing.
The IC senses the angular position of a permanent magnet placed above the chip.
The permanent magnet must be diametrically polarized and of cylindrical shape.
The AM256 uses Hall sensor technology to detect the magnetic flux density distribution at the surface of the silicon.
Hall sensors are placed in a circular array around the center o
