Hi Tom, Hans and all,
I do not have experience with that chip. I'm used to spend a little more money,
and use this device: TT Electronics / BI Technologies 6127V1A360L.5FS. It has
an analog output which interfaces easily to an ADC input, and the right magnet
is mounted in the right distance on the right axis. It pretty much resembles a
potentiometer without stop.
Of course it can be nice to stay on the digital side, but having the mechanics
already done for a few extra bucks can also be an advantage.
These days, the most important advantage is, if my preferred supplier has it in
stock ;-)

Hello Hans,
Yes, I have some experience with it.
I needed to replace a failing set of reed switches in a weather vane. I
replaced them with an AS5600 sensor, and did some testing with it.
I have attached a PDF file from a presentation I did in September, that may be
of interest. The overall project was the refurbishing of our Little Free
Library. The weather vane discussion (mainly photos) is in the 2nd half of the
PDF, showing the old reed switch / I2C installation, and the new AS5600 install
inside the 3D printed mounting. The upgrade is not outdoors yet, so not
weather tested...
Some things to be aware of:
- the rotating magnet and it's mount location are very critical. I originally
did not order the AS5600 (from Aliexpress) with magnets, since I have a large
collection of small salvaged magnets in my junk box. But only 2 of those
magnets had the correct orientation of magnetic field to adequately operate
the AS5600! See test graph for results; a proper magnet would produce even
better results. I have ordered additional AS5600's for other uses, and
included the proper magnets with that order.

Hey
I need a position sensor that provides a rotation of 360 degrees. I found the
AS5600. Does anyone have experience with this?
regards
Hans
