Description​

RAK12054 is a WisBlock Encoder Sensor module that extends the WisBlock system with an AS5600-ASOT Encoder Sensor from OSRAM. It comes with a ready-to-use software library and tutorial, making it easy to build a magnetic rotary position data acquisition system. Magnetic rotary position data is interfaced via I2C. Additionally, it can be mounted to sensor slot of WisBlock Base board.
