Description

The AMR3108A is a contactless, high-precision, and

high-speed magnetic rotary encoder sensor, which

integrated with anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR)

sensors and CMOS digital signal processing circuitry.

The AMR3108A senses the single pole-pair magnet

rotation above the chip by AMR sensors, collects the

rotating magnetic field signal, transmits it to the digital

processing unit, calculates the rotation angle and

outputs 12-bit absolute position signals.

The signal period of AMR3108A is 180° rotation

angle. Using the reserved inverted switch interface, it

can be extended to the detection of 360° rotation angle.

AMR3108A outputs 12-bit absolute position signal

through SPI communication protocol in a 180°

rotation period. At the same time, it is able to output

A/B phase programmable incremental position signal

with 1 to 1024 pulse and programmable zero-point

(Z phase) signal. AMR3108A also provides inverted

UVW output, analog and PWM signals, with rotational

speed up to 20,000 RPM.
