AS5140H
10-Bit 360º Programmable Magnetic
Rotary Encoder For High Ambient
Temperatures
General Description
The AS5140H is a contactless magnetic rotary encoder for
accurate angular measurement over a full turn of 360º and over
an extended ambient temperature range of -40ºC to 150ºC.
It is a system-on-chip, combining integrated Hall elements,
analog front end and digital signal processing in a single device.
To measure the angle, only a simple two-pole magnet, rotating
over the center of the chip, is required. The magnet may be
placed above or below the IC.
The absolute angle measurement provides instant indication of
the magnet’s angular position with a resolution of 0.35º = 1024
positions per revolution. This digital data is available as a serial
bit stream and as a PWM signal. Furthermore, a
user-programmable incremental output is available.
An internal voltage regulator allows the AS5140H to operate at
either 3.3V or 5V supplies.
The AS5140H is pin-compatible to the AS5040; however it uses
low-voltage OTP programming cells with additional
programming options.

Pin 1 and 2 are the magnetic field change indicators, MagINCn
and MagDECn (magnetic field strength increase or decrease
through variation of the distance between the magnet and the
device). These outputs can be used to detect the valid magnetic
field range. Furthermore those indicators can also be used for
contact-less push-button functionality. Pins 3, 4 and 6 are the
incremental pulse output pins. The functionality of these pins
can be configured through programming the one-time
programmable (OTP) register.

Pin Assignment
Note(s):
Both modes (mode 1.x and mode 2.x) provide an index
signal (1 pulse/revolution) with an adjustable width of one LSB
or three LSB’s.
Mode 3.x: Brushless DC Motor Commutation Mode
In addition to the absolute encoder output over the SSI
interface, this mode provides commutation signals for
brushless DC motors with either one pole pair or two pole pair
rotors. The commutation signals are usually provided by 3
discrete Hall switches, which are no longer required, as the
AS5140H can fulfill two tasks in parallel:
absolute encoder + BLDC motor commutation.
In this mode,
• Pin 12 provides the LSB output instead of the PWM
(Pulse-Width-Modulation) signal.
• Pin 8 (Prog) is also used to program the different
incremental interface modes, the incremental resolution
and the zero position into the OTP (see
Incremental Mode
Programming).
This pin is also used as digital input to shift
serial data through the device in Daisy Chain
configuration, (see
Figure 24).
• Pin 11 Chip Select (CSn; active low) selects a device within
a network of AS5140H encoders and initiates serial data
transfer. A logic high at CSn puts the data output pin (DO)
to tri-state and terminates serial data transfer. This pin is
also used for alignment mode (see
Alignment Mode)
and
programming mode (see
Programming the AS5140H).
• Pin 12 allows a single wire output of the 10-bit absolute
position value. The value is encoded into a pulse width
modulated signal with 1μs pulse width per step (1μs to
1024μs over a full turn). By using an external low pass filter,
the digital PWM signal is converted into an analog voltage,
allowing a direct replacement of potentiometers.
