Application Note – AS5000 Programmer
1 General Overview
This operational manual describes the function of the AS5000 Programmer in combination with the programming
boards. This tool can program the ams AS5000 series magnetic rotary encoders. The graphical user interface (GUI)
runs on PC running Windows XP or later and controls the programmer via the USB interface.
All major access modes to the OTP memories can be established. Be aware that ams provides the AS5000
Programmer as a reference for programming and reading of mentioned devices (refer to
Appendix A) under laboratory conditions (no warranty for mass production).
Note: Since firmware version v2.10 the AS5000-Programmer contains a boot loader, which provides an update function
for new software release. Please refer to the corresponding application note AN5000-60 (available on our
webpage).

Description of the Hardware Components
LCD display
USB cable
Figure 1 shows the three components which are needed to program the ams magnetic position sensor. Take care that
the connector between programmer and programming board is plugged in the right way.
In case of wrong connection, the components in the AS5000 programmer or the encoder can be destroyed!

With this jumper the gain can set to 1. The jumper J6 is by default closed because the AS5000 Programmer provides 3.3V operation. In case of 5 V operation the jumper must be removed and the configuration can be changed over the GUI. www.ams.com Revision 1.11/ 02/18/2014... -
Page 4: Installation
Following Procedure is recommended before starting the GUI: check on your PC if Service Pack 2 is installed install the mentioned .net package to your computer execute AS5000GUI_setup.exe Finally start the GUI using the shortcut in the start menu or desktop. www.ams.com Revision 1.11/ 02/18/2014... -

Status field displays the status bits extracted from the SSI stream. Green light means that the airgap between the magnet and encoder is correct. Orange light means the magnet is too close of too far. CCW checkbox is the angle direction. To invert the rotating direction, check CCW. www.ams.com Revision 1.11/ 02/18/2014... - Page 7 Selecting Zero Position Reset will write the value 0 to the OTP Zero Position register. Note: The Zero Position function is the same for all the AS50xx, AS51xx, AS52xx rotary encoders offering this feature. Selecting the OTP tab will read the OTP configuration from the IC. www.ams.com Revision 1.11/ 02/18/2014...
