8.2.1 Programming Parameters

The analog output characteristic is programmable by OTP. Depending on the application, the analog output can be adjusted. The user can

program the following application specific parameters:

These parameters are input parameters. Using the available programming software and programmer these parameters are converted and finally

written into the AS5262 128 bit OTP memory.

8.2.2 Application Specific Angular Range Programming

The application range can be selected by programming T1 with a related T1Y and T2 with a related T2Y into the AS5262. The clamping levels

CLL and CLH can be programmed independent from the T1 and T2 position and both levels can be separately adjusted.

Figure 5. Programming of an Individual Application Range

Figure 5 shows a simple example of the selection of the range. The mechanical starting point T1 and the mechanical end point T2 are defining

the mechanical range. A sub range of the internal Cordic output range is used and mapped to the needed output characteristic. The analog

output signal has 12 bit, hence the level T1Y and T2Y can be adjusted with this resolution. As a result of this level and the calculated slope the

clamping region low is defined. The break point BP defines the transition between CLL and CLH. In this example the BP is set to 0 degree. The

BP is also the end point of the clamping level high CLH. This range is defined by the level CLH and the calculated slope. Both clamping levels

can be set independently form each other.
