The AS5311 sensor is interfaced with an external FPGA board because the Arduino could not handle the Sandbox operation at the same time. We have used an FPGA board, but a high-performace microcontroller could be used.
VHDL design for interfacing the high resolution magnetic linear sensor AS5311
The interface with the sensor is explained. Then the FPGA sends the data to a computer.
In this folder we have the Python scripts that analyse the data from the magnetic sensor and plots it.
A link to the data from the sensor is also in the folder
