Evaluation boards are used to check the functionality and performance of the integrated circuits in the form of a module. Such boards are also used for testing of analog and digital components or for design and development of sophisticated electronic systems. Sensors are used in evaluation boards to detect movement, force, and various other changes in physical conditions. The AS5161-SO-EK-AB evaluation board with its integrated absolute hall-effect position sensor is designed for the absolute position sensing of linear and angular motion.

The AS5161-SO-EK-AB evaluation board provides one pre-integrated AS5061 positioning solution outside a microcontroller. The AS5061 comprises the AS5161 position sensor, a position-tracking current regulator, an iC-Haus dedicated I/O expansion, and a calibration register. The board’s characteristics are optimized for operation with the AS5061 linear and angular position sensing solution or the AS5162 for angular motion. The board is suitable for the testing and evaluation of the AS5061 and AS5162 families of sensors, as well as miniature magnetic encoders.

The AS5161-SO-EK-AB board takes the form of a complete evaluation kit. It is designed for efficient evaluation of the AS5061 motion tracking current regulator and offers cost effective, fast and complete evaluation. The kit includes a PCB, a 3.3 V adapter, an AS5061-based application board and an USB-I2C bridge cable. Through its easy to access onboard test points, it is possible to adjust gain and offset as well as regulate the output current.

The as5061 is a motion tracking current regulator sought for its low power consumption and its precise and accurate track of the absolute position of linear and angular motions. It can be used as an angle/rotation sensor or a linear position tracker. It uses hall effect technology which works when the magnetic field around the absolute position sensor is aligned and passes through the hall effect plate. The peak output voltage of the sensor is then proportional to the strength of the magnetic field and the absolute position is determined.

AS5161-SO-EK-AB works on a 5 V input voltage, providing a regulated 5 V output voltage and current regulation for linear and angular motion sensors. The current regulator is designed to provide a linear output current with respect to the peak output voltage of the position sensor. It features programmable maximum output current adjustment and can be used to set the maximum output current to the suitable maximum limit. The kit also contains switches to enable or disable the current regulator which is necessary for the synchronization of the motion sensor with the application.

The AS5161-SO-EK-AB board also comes with a calibration register to reduce the offset voltage. This is necessary for operating the module under various environmental conditions since the offset voltage is affected by temperature, power supply and other physical conditions. The board is also fitted with on-board test points to ensure the end user can quickly and easily evaluate the performance of the AS5061. This feature gives the user the flexibility to adjust the gain and offset to the required limit.

In conclusion, the AS5161-SO-EK-AB is a cost-effective, complete solution for evaluation and testing of linear and angular motion sensors. It provides necessary features for testing the performance and functionality of the AS5061 and AS5162. The board features current regulator and calibration register to ensure that the absolute position is accurately determined. Its onboard test points provide flexibility to adjust the gain and offset of the motion sensor to its optimum performance.
