AS5600L Adapter Board
1
Introduction
The AS5600L adapter board is a small PCB allowing simple and quick testing or evaluation of the
AS5600L magnetic position sensor without the need to build a test fixture or design an own PCB.

Board description
The PCB can either be connected to an external microcontroller or to the USB I&P Box which is
available on our webpage. (USB
I&P Box)
P1 is populated with a 2x4 90 degree pin header and is required for power supply as well as I2C
(SCL, SDA) and PWM(OUT).
The connector J1 allows you to select between 5V or 3.3V operation (Open=5V/Closed=3.3V)
The optional resistor R1 (0R – 0603 package) allows you to enable the 3 wire zero programming
feature, where you can set the zero and maximum position without using a µC. (for more details
refer to AS5600L datasheet)
R2 and R3 are the optional pull-up resistors for SCL and SDA line.
C1 and C2 are decoupling capacitors.
R4 & R5 are used for the direction polarity. Populate R5 for increasing value in clockwise
direction, R4 for counterclockwise.

A 6x2.5mm diametric magnet has to be placed over or under the AS5600L sensor, and should
be centered on the middle of the sensors hall array (for hall array center please refer to
AS5600L Datsheet). The airgap between the magnet surface and the package should be
maintained in the range 0.5mm to 3mm. The magnet holder must not be ferromagnetic.
Materials as brass, copper, aluminum, stainless steel are the best choices to make this part.
