Re: Mounting magnetic encoder

The sensor you want to use may not be the best option. It requires very precise mounting to work. The cherry an8 series or a vishay version would be better. The cherry allows for some magnet misalignment and a variation of magnet to face much greater than the Austria micro chip. The vishay version has a shaft. CUI also has a version that has many features by SPI.
