The Grove AS5600 is a programmable 12-bit high-resolution contactless magnetic rotary position sensor. The Grove AS5600 can work as a magnetic potentiometer and a magnetic encoder with excellent reliability and durability. Compared with the traditional potentiometer/encoder, the Grove AS5600 has significant advantages: high precision, non-contact, and no rotation angle limitation. All those advantages make it perfectly suitable for non-contact angle measurements applications, such as the robot arm, tripod head, motor closed-loop control, and machine tool axis positioning.
