Confused, the AS5047P sensor allows for perpendicular positioning? So the edge of a diametric ring magnet will work?

I have a rod that is suspended by two bearings. For the rotation to be measured I'd like to add a diametric ring magnet to the rod and have the sensor read the outer edge of that ring. Will the AS5047 ...

Are magnetic sensors able to pick up the electromagnetic field inside toroids?

From my understanding, correct me if I'm wrong, the electromagnetic field outside a toroid is 0, but it has a EM field within the shell itself. So my question is can a magnetic sensor pick up on this ...

Tiny Magnet Sensor Switch

I know just enough about electronics to do the occasional Arduino or Raspberry Pi project, as long as I don't have to understand too much of what's going on. I am a software guy who dabbles in ...
