AS5600 Magnetic Angle Sensor Module with STEMMA QT Connectors

AS5600 Magnetic Angle Sensor Module with STEMMA QT Connectors Description

Add rotational sensing - without a mechanical connection - with the AS5600 Magnetic Angle Sensor. Featuring the ams AS5600, this board can sense a rotating N/S magnetic field to 3mm away from the chip body. These sensors are often used to create 'frictionless' rotary encoders or potentiometers, without the risk of mechanical failure or noise.
Magnetic angle sensors get the best of 'both worlds': like rotary encoders they can rotate freely 360 degrees around, and like potentiometers, they have absolute location detection.
All you need is a microcontroller or microcomputer with I2C. Then, identify the north and south of a magnet. (magnet is not included.)
To make usage plug-and-, we added STEMMA QT connectors for the I2C bus, so you don't even need to solder the I2C and power lines. Simply wire to your favorite micro using a STEMMA QT adapter cable. QT Cable is not included.
Comes as a fully assembled breakout board a small bit of header. Some light soldering is required to attach the header for use in a breadboard.

Note that many round magnets have the N/S alternate 'coin face' sides, so you'll need to rotate it the . Place the magnet near the middle of the chip and rotate it in place. The firmware will detect the magnetic field and report the angle from 0 to 359 with 0.1 precision and 0.4 accuracy.
