{"product_id":"as5600-12bit-magnetic-rotary-encoder-module","title":"AS5600 12-Bit Magnetic Rotary Encoder Module","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe AS5600 magnetic rotary encoder breakout module measures shaft angle without physical contact. Its 12-bit AS5600 position sensor reads a diametrically magnetized, on-axis rotating magnet over a default 0–360° range. Use it for robotics joints, rotary controls, motor position experiments, and contactless potentiometer projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensor:\u003c\/strong\u003e AS5600 magnetic rotary position IC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResolution:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12-bit angle output (4096 positions per revolution)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDefault angle range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0–360°; programmable start and stop positions at the IC level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterface:\u003c\/strong\u003e I²C for angle reading and configuration; analog or PWM output selectable at the IC level, subject to breakout connections and configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIC power:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports 3.3 V or 5 V operation according to the manufacturer's data; check breakout pin labels and controller I\/O pull-up voltage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMagnet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Requires a suitable diametrically magnetized on-axis magnet positioned over the sensing IC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Assembled breakout module with pin headers; inspect the supplied board for available pins and output configuration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMount the magnet centrally above the sensor with an appropriate air gap and minimal shaft wobble. Check magnetic field status and calibrate the angle range in software. Confirm the breakout's pinout, pull-ups, logic levels, and available output pins before wiring an Arduino, ESP32, STM32, or other controller. Resolution is not the same as absolute accuracy; alignment and magnet choice affect readings. The product photos show a magnetic disk, but confirm package contents for your order if the magnet is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the AS5600 measure?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt measures the angle of an on-axis rotating magnetic field without a contacting shaft encoder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a magnet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, a suitable diametrically magnetized magnet is required above the IC. Confirm whether a magnet is included with the current batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it with Arduino or ESP32?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, with matching supply and I²C pull-up voltage, correct pinout, and a suitable library.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it provide 12-bit I²C angle readings?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the sensor provides 12-bit angular position information accessible through I²C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this board have analog or PWM output?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AS5600 IC supports a selectable analog or PWM output; check whether the board exposes the relevant pin and how it is configured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the AS5600 the same as the MT6835?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The AS5600 is a 12-bit position sensor with I²C and configurable output; the MT6835 has a 21-bit core and different interface options.
