[AK7401] AK7401 Rotary Position Sensor IC 1. General Description The AK7401 is a monolithic Hall-Effect sensor IC that specializes in detecting rotation angle. A contactless rotary position sensor is easily designed with a magnet. The AK7401 is only sensitive to the magnetic flux density applied parallel to the IC surface. This is obtained through a magnetic concentrator which is mounted on the Hall-Effect elements. It is advantageous to accurate angular measurements against mechanical displacement. To detect the rotation angle of a magnet, the AK7401 provides a 12-bit angle data. The angle data output is available via PWM and serial data protocols. 2.
