General Description
The AS5261 is a contactless magnetic angle position sensor for accurate angular measurement over a full turn of 360°. A sub range can be programmed to achieve the best resolution for the application. It is a system-on-chip, combining integrated Hall elements, analog front end, digital signal processing and best in class automotive protection features in a single device.

KEY FEATUREs
■360º contactless high resolution angular position encoding
■User programmable start and end point of the application region
   + linearization.
■User programmable clamping levels and programming of the
   transition point.
■Wide temperature range: - 40ºC to + 150ºC
■Small Pb-free package: MLF 16 6x6 (with dimple)
■Broken GND and VDD detection

Benefits
■Unique fully differential solution
■Best protections for automotive applications
■Easy to program
■Additional linearization points for output characteristic
■Ideal for applications in harsh environments due to contactless
   position sensing
■Robust system, tolerant to magnet misalignment, air gap
   variations, temperature variations and external magnetic fields
■High inherent accuracy
■Stacked die redundant approach

APPLICATIONs
   The AS5261 is ideal for automotive applications like throttle and
   valve position sensing, gearbox position sensor, pedal position
   sensing and contactless potentiometers.
