Each communication starts with the reception of a request from the external controller. The request consists of two frames: one synchronization

frame and the command frame.

The synchronization frame contains the data 0x55 and allows the UART to measure the external controller baud rate:

Figure 14. Synchronization Frame

The second frame contains the command Read/ Write (1 bit) and the address (7 bits):

Figure 15. Address and Command Frame

Only two commands are possible. In case of read command the idle phase between the command and the answer is the time TSW. In case of

parity error command is not executed.

Notes:

1. In case of Write command the request is followed by the frames containing the data to write.

2. In case of Read command the communication direction will change and the AS5262 will answer with the frames containing the

requested data.
