Amphenol Piher MSX-360 Miniature Joystick Position Sensors

Amphenol Piher MSX-360 Miniature Joystick Position Sensors pack pro-grade features into a tiny 14.4mm x 16mm footprint. Despite a lightweight build, the sensors deliver precise control with a full 360° range with no dead zones, 12-bit resolution for smooth response, and long-lasting durability. Built to resist electromagnetic interference and electrostatic discharge, the MSX-360 position sensors provide reliable operation. The Amphenol Piher MSX-360 Miniature Joystick Position Sensors are a low-profile and long-life cost-effective alternative to contacting solutions based on printed carbon tracks or potentiometers prone to wear and tear during the lifespan.

Features

  • True, contactless operation
    • Without any gears or mechanical interfaces, the sensor is easily assembled and calibrated
    • Subject to limited wear and tear over the lifetime
  • With ultra-small weight and packaging space, this rotary sensor can be used in even the most space-constrained applications
  • A magnet is securely fastened to the integrated shaft and acts as the only moving component in the sensor
  • 360° absolute position feedback enables endless mechanical rotational angle without a dead band and keeps the position on power loss with programmable electrical angles from 90° to 360°
  • Analog (ratiometric) output protocol
  • Self-diagnostic features
  • IP67 sealing
  • RoHS and REACH compliant
