2 Board description
The PCB can be connected to an external microcontroller or to the AS5xxx-EK-USB-PB UART
Programmer which can be used in combination with the AS5270 Software GUI provided by ams
AG.
JP1 is populated with a 2x4 female pin header it is required for the power supply (VDD_T,
VDD_B, GND_T and GND_B) and output (OUT_T and OUT_B). This connector directly fits to
the UART Programmer.
All necessary external components C2 (VDD3V3_T-GND), C4 (VDD3V3_B-GND) and C1, C3
(VDD-GND) are already populated to the PCB.

2.1 Mounting the AS5270 adapter board
Figure 3: Mounting and dimensions
A 8x2.5mm diametric magnet must be placed over or under the AS5270 sensor, and should be
centered in the middle of the package with a tolerance of 0.5mm. The airgap between the
magnet surface and the package should be maintained in the range 0.5mm to 3mm. The magnet
holder must not be ferromagnetic. Materials as brass, copper, aluminum, stainless steel are the
best choices to make this part.

4 Operation case
4.1 Connection to AS5xxx-EK-USB-PB UART Programmer
The AS5270 adapter board can be directly connected to the AS5xxx-EK-USB-PB UART
Programmer using only 3 lines, each for every die (VDD, GND and OUT). The voltage supply is
coming directly from the programmer which can either be supplied directly via 5V from USB or
externally. The UART communication is taking place over the OUT pin. The necessary pull-up
resistor is already in place on the programmer PCB.
