General Description
EasyPoint™ N40P107 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 application’s PCB, and monitors the movement of the magnet incorporated into the knob and provides directly the x and y coordinates via I²C output. An integrated mechanical push button built in the module provides a “select” function

Key Features
■Small form factor
■Lateral magnet movement radius up to ±1mm
■Direct knob force feedback
■Push button output
■SMD mounting

Benefits
■High reliability due to magnetic contact-less sensing
■Easy to use and fast integration

Applications
    The EasyPoint™ N40P107 in combination with the AS5013 is ideal for small form factor navigation user interfaces in battery driven portable devices, such as - Mobile phones (especially for gaming), Remote Controls, Gaming Consoles, Analog joysticks(360 degree), MP3 players, PDAs, PND, MID and GPS
