1 General Overview
The AS5045/AS5145A/B is a contactless magnetic rotary encoder for accurate angular measurement over a full turn of
360°.
It is a system-on-chip, combining integrated Hall elements, analog front end and digital signal processing in a single
device.
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.
The absolute angle measurement provides instant indication of the magnet’s angular position with a resolution of
0.0879° = 4096 positions per revolution. This digital data is available as a serial bit stream and as a PWM signal.
An internal voltage regulator allows the AS5045/AS5145A/B to operate at either 3.3 V or 5 V supplies
Note: AS5145A/B are pre-programmed versions of AS5145. It provides 10bit (A) or 12bit (B) incremental output.
2 The AS5045/AS5145A/B Demoboard
The AS5x45 demoboard is a complete rotary encoder system with built-in microcontroller, USB interface, graphical LCD
display and PWM output LED.
The board is USB powered or externally supplied with a 9V battery for standalone operation.

3 Operating the AS5045/AS5145A/B Demoboard
The AS5x45 demoboard can be used in several ways:
• As standalone unit supplied by a 9V battery
Connect a 9V battery to the battery connector on the top right side of the board. No other connections are required.
• As standalone unit supplied by an USB port
Connect the demoboard to a PC using a USB/USB cable (included in demoboard shipment). The board is supplied by
the 5V supply of the USB port. No other connections are required.
• As input device for the AS5000 Programmer GUI software

This configuration uses the same USB hardware connection as above, but additionally the AS5000 Programmer GUI
software is running. The LCD display will be turned off and the Angle/Status bits will be displayed on the PC screen.
Some extra features as zero position programming can be achieved. The parameters will not be permanently
programmed. All the parameters will be lost when the demoboard is shut down. For a permanent device programming,
the “AS5000 Programmer” hardware should be used.
3.1 Graphic LCD display
The LCD display shows the realtime absolute angle position of the magnet with a resolution of 0.09° = 4096 positions
per revolution (AS5045/AS5145A/B) and the absolute value of the angle.
Turning the knob clockwise will increase the angle value until 359.9° (value 4095), then 0°.
The magnet status indicator is related to the magnet position. If the magnet is too close or too far away from the
encoder, “Magnet out of range” will be displayed.
Figure 2: LCD display in standalo ne mode (9V battery or USB power ed without GUI)
3.2 PWM LED
The PWM LED is connected to the PWM output of the AS5045/AS5145A/B. The PWM output is a pulse width that is
proportional to the angle of the magnet.
The pulse width varies from 1µs to 4096µs with a repetition rate of 244Hz. Viewing the PWM signal on the LED results
in brightness that is proportional to the angle of the magnet. When the angle of the magnet is at 0°, the LED is almost
dark, as it is 1µs on and 4095µs off. Turning the knob clockwise towards higher angles increases the brightness of the
PWM LED, since the ON-pulse becomes longer and the OFF-pulse becomes shorter.
Likewise, the PWM output can be used as an analog output proportional to the angle, when the PWM signal is filtered
by a RC (or active) lowpass filter.
The PWM signal (digital 0 ~ 3.3V) can be directly taken from the connector J4.
3.3 MagINc and MagDECn
MagINCn and MagDECn are the magnetic field change indicators (magnetic field strength increase or decrease through
variation of the distance between the magnet and the device).
These outputs can be used to detect the valid magnetic field range. If both indicators lit simultaneously
(MagINCn = 0 and MagDECn = 0), the magnet is out of range, the airgap between the encoder and the magnet is too
high or too low. In that case, “Magnet out of range” will be displayed on the LCD display.

3.4 Encoder selection switch
The switch SW1 selects the encoder which communicates with the microcontroller through the SSI bus:
1. Right position (default): Onboard AS5045/AS5145A/B
2. Left Position: External AS5045/AS5145A/B connected on J6
The signals of the synchronous serial interface (DO, CLK, CSn, PROG) and the power supply (3.3V,
GND) of an external device can be connected directly to J6. In this configuration, the data of the serial
interface are displayed on the GUI or the LCD.
• In standalone mode, regardless to the demoboard type (AS5045, AS5145A/B), AS5045 and AS5145A/B
can be attached to J6 and evaluated. See figure 3.
• If the GUI is used for operation, additional devices AS5040, AS5140, AS5043 and AS5143 can be
connected to J6 and evaluated. In that case, the correct encoder must be selected instead of “Autoselect” in
the Device list of the PC software, see chapter 4.2 figure 4.

4 AS5000 Programmer GUI software
4.1 Installing the GUI on the PC
The preliminary software is developed for a Microsoft Windows XP operating system with Service Pack 2. In addition
the dotnet (.NET) framework version 2.0 or more must be installed on the PC. This package can be downloaded free of
charge from the Microsoft webpage:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?Fami
lyID=0856eacb-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&displaylang=en
Following Procedure is recommended before starting the GUI:
1. check on your PC if Service Pack 2 is installed
2. install the mentioned .NET package to your computer
3. execute setup.exe
4. Finally start the GUI using the shortcut in the start menu or desktop.
4.2 The Home tab
Figure 3 shows the main window of the GUI. On the top left corner, board information’s as firmware (FW) version and
demoboard name declaration can be found.
By default the GUI is in the auto detection mode. Any connected austriamicrosystems demoboard and programming tool will
be automatically detected and the device type is displayed in the right top corner of the main window. The GUI is divided into
three main sections HOME, SSI and OTP.

4.3 The SSI tab
By selecting the SSI (serial protocol for AS5040, AS5140, AS5043, AS5143, AS5045, AS5145A/B) tab, the real time
information of the angular position and the status bits are displayed. See figure 4.
Figure 5: SSI tab, shows the SSI bus data of the select ed encoder
Value is the Angle data [D11:D0] from the RD_ANGLE (Read Angle) serial command. This value is continuously
updated.
The Zero Pos. value represents the Zero Position register. By clicking on the Set button, the actual angle
“Value” is written into the Zero Position register. Clicking on Reset writes the value 0 to the Zero Position register.
The Magnetic Range Warning is continuously read from the RD_ANGLE serial command.
• Green lamp: Magnet in range
• Orange lamp: Magnet too far or too close. MagINC and MagDEC are set.
• Red lamp: Magnet too far or too close, angle value is invalid and LIN bit is set.
The red lamp is available only when OTP MagCompEN=1, available from the OTP tab.
The Status bits information is taken from the serial stream.
The Read Interval can be modified from 10 ms (fastest) to 1 s (slowest).

4.4 The OTP tab
The OTP tab is normally used for the AS5000 programmer, but the OTP bits can be changed on the AS5x45 demoboard as
well.
Options like Zero Position, Pulses per revolution and Incremental Mode Selection can be changed by selecting the function
in “Fields”, then changing the parameter in “Options for the selected field” or directly the decimal value of this parameter in
“Value”.
Each time a field’s value has been changed, the corresponding OTP bits will be automatically checked in the right window.
The button Write should be clicked to write the parameter into the AS5x45.
The Read button reads back the OTP register, and updates the “Field” parameter as well as the OTP bits window.
Figure 6: OTP tab
Field Zero Position: To zero position value, like on the SSI tab. The zero position value can be changed by checking the
Z[11:0] bits, or changing the Value field with a decimal number.
Note: The Zap! button is used for the AS5000 Programmer only and has no effect on the AS5x45 Demoboard.
