How to program AS5145B Magnetic Encoder in LabView?

Looks like this has SSI, PWM, and quadrature outputs.

How are you planning on wiring it?

If you use the quadrature outputs, you can just use it like a normal encoder.

The easiest way would be to use it as a quadrature outputs and program it the same way you would program any other encoder.

This document has some good details on this:

If you go with the quadrature method, you can find examples in LabVIEW for coding it at this location:
