Re: Buying the AS5304-AB Linear Encoder
Hi

I just started looking at this part...

The AS5304 is the actual chip, and we received the chip on an "Adapter Board".

However, as anyone looked at the data sheet for this board.
Page 3 has a very disturbing table where the GND and 5V terminals are reversed..... Which is correct? the board or the table? See attachment.

Phil.
