XENSIV™ AS5510 Hall magnetic linear sensor with 10-bit resolution and I²C interface The AS5510 is an absolute position sensor for linear applications with short strokes (0.5 to 2.0mm) based on contactless magnetic sensor technology. To measure a lateral movement the sensor needs a simple 2-pole magnet and the measured distance depends on the magnet geometry. The absolute position is measured with a resolution of 10 bit = 1024 positions and it is provided as a digital value on the serial interface (I²C).
