1 General Description
The AS5048 is an easy to use 360° angle position sensor with a 14-bit high resolution output. To
measure the angle, only a simple two-pole magnet, rotating over the center of the chip, is required.
The magnet may be placed above or below the IC. This is shown in Figure 1.

2 The AS5048 adapter board
The AS5048 adapter board is a simple circuit allowing test and evaluation of the AS5048 magnetic
position sensor quickly without building a test fixture or PCB.
2.1 Board description
The AS5048 Adapterboard is a simple circuit allowing test and evaluation of the AS5048 rotary
encoder quickly without building a test fixture or PCB.
The PCB can be attached to a microcontroller or to the AS5048- Demoboard as external device.

2.2 Mounting the AS5048 adapter board
A diametric magnet must be placed over on under the AS5048 position sensor, and should be
centered on the middle of the package with a tolerance of 0.5mm.
The airgap between the magnet and the encoder casing should be maintained in the range
0.5mm~2mm. The magnet holder must not be ferromagnetic. Materials as brass, copper, aluminum,
stainless steel are the best choices to make this part.

4 Operation cases
The most complete and accurate solution for a MCU to read the angle of a magnet is the SPI
interface.
4.1 One Device SPI mode, unidirectional – 3 wire
The AS5048-AB can be directly connected to an industry standard SPI port of a microcontroller. The
minimum connection requirement for unidirectional communication (angle + alarm values reading)
between the microcontroller and the AS5048 are MISO, SCK, SS/.
The angle will be read at each 16-bit SPI transfer. See AS5048 datasheet register table, register
3FFFh.

4.2 One device SPI mode, bidirectional – 4 wire
If other registers than only angle values have to be read, or in order to write registers into the AS5048,
the signal MOSI is necessary.

4.3 Multi devices SPI Daisy chain mode
The AS5048 can be daisy chained, using 4 wires only for SPI communication.
In this configuration with n x encoders, the sequence will be processed as follow:
- MCU sets SS/ = 0
- MCU shifts n x 16-bit (e.g. READ command FFFFh) through the chain
- MCU sets SS/=1
At that point all the n x encoders have received the READ command FFFFh.
- MCU sets SS/=0
- MCU shifts n x 16-bit (e.g. NOP command 0000h)
- MCU sets SS/=1
At that point the n x 16-bit received on MISO are the n x angle values.

5 Firmware coding
The following source code fits the 4-Wire application
The function void spiReadData() reads/writes 4 values from the AS5048
- Send command READ AGC / Receive value unknown
- Send command READ MAG / Receive value AGC
- Send command READ Angle / Receive value MAG
- Send command NOP (no operation) / Receive value ANGLE
If a READ ANGLE only is necessary in a loop, the procedure can be reduced to one line:
- Send command READ Angle / Receive value Angle
The function static u8 spiCalcEvenParity(ushort value) is optional, it calculates the parity bit of the 16-bit SPI
stream.
