What's the speed limit for absolute angle?

How are you defining "cpr" and "ppr"? It seems to be the opposite of how US Digital defines these acronyms.
Whoops. Honestly, the CPR/PPR gets me every time. I edited the description to match it.
There's no mechanical limit that I can think of, as it's just operating off a contactless magnetic field anyway, and due to the magnetic field operating limits I wouldn't think induced current is a problem. It does run an internal computer for the incremental conversion so the 28k rpm may come from that as an electronic limit.

AFAIK the 28k rpm also applies to absolute (datasheet doesn't single out either mode of operation), but it could be higher than that.

I've been thinking of doing something similar with a AS5304/6 encoder to make a 1/2 hex through axle encoder.
PM me about that if you'd like. I designed one for an AS5304 a few months ago but never got around to building it because of lack of good 3d printing resources.
