The Austrian microelectronics puts out EasyPoint control rod module based on non-contact type sensory technology
The little electronics corporation of Austria released EasyPoint control rod module suitable for the walkie communicating device a few days ago.
EasyPoint include one mechanical assembly, integration navigate knob, one magnet and non-contact type sensory IC AS5011. Its simple structure and adopting non-contact type sensory technical AS5011, mean this module can offer very high mechanical reliability. EasyPoint control rod module supports the genuine 360 deg motion detection, and have " choose " The function, suitable for many kinds of physical dimensions, the module is very low to 1.8mm in height.
The core of EasyPoint control rod module is a a little electronic magnetic Coder IC AS5011 of Austria, can measure and move to the knob in the central position, and lose and offer the place information through I2C. AS5011 has user's available power saving modes, adopt ultrathin QFN to capsulate (5x5mm, the height is 0.55mm) .
Austrian microelectronics industry and medical director Matjaz Novak of Division's market show: "Utilizing EasyPoint control rod module technology, we can offer the high reliability module suitable for various walkie communicating device. Our solution also has high usability except having high reliability. Users can move the cursor to the arbitrary angle, change the moving speed of cursors, or and optional item pulls it on the screen. "
EasyPoint control rod module demonstrates sample and AS5011 IC have offered samples now. The module has two kinds of machine constructions at present, one is intact module of integrated AS5011 IC, another kind is only mechanical module. The specifications of these two kinds of products, and support the knob displacement of 1mm and 2mm from 12.5mm x 12.6mm to 18.6mm x 22.6mm respectively.
