1 General Description
EasyPoint" N50P105 is a miniature joystick module concept based
on contact-less, magnetic movement detection. The two-dimensional
linear encoder IC AS5013 is mounted on the bottom side of the
applications PCB, and monitors the movement of the magnet
incorporated into the knob and provides directly the x and y
coordinates via I睠 output. An integrated mechanical push button
built in the module provides a select function.
