Sensor Magnet (d6x2,5) AS5601 The magnet should be aligned by reading the output of the AGC register of the AS5601. For optimal alignment, the AGC value is in the middle of the AGC range. Note: If the magnetic field seen by the AS5601 is below 8mT, the output is disconnected and permanent angle programming is not possible. -

Note: To use the push-button functionality AS5601 Configuration All options to configure the AS5601 are shown below. To use the AS5601 in incremental mode for a contactless rotary knob, the electrical signal must be aligned with the mechanical grid. As well the push-button threshold must be configured for the mechanical setup. -
