5.1.2 Incremental Mode

The incremental mode is used to set up a contactless encoder knob. In addition to the incremental

output, a push button output is available to integrate a contactless push-button.

AS5601 Configuration

All options to configure the AS5601 are shown below. To use the AS5601 in incremental mode for a

contactless rotary knob, the electrical signal must be aligned with the mechanical grid. As well the

push-button threshold must be configured for the mechanical setup.

6.1 Configuring the grid offset

An ideal mechanical grid and the electrical output are shown below in

The transition of electrical signal should ideally be in the middle between two mechanical positions.
