Hello everyone,

I am going to use the AS5145 encoder for a motor control application, but when I read the data sheet there are things I don't understand. I just want to give a pretty standard use, not program it. So my question is:
- Do I have to connect the pin CLOCK? If yes, where? Im using a dsPIC33.
- What pins I don't need to use? I mean pins like DO PDIO, I don't know what to do with them.
Sorry for the simple questions but I am not familiar with this device or any other magnetic encoder at all.

Thank you very much in advance, I really appreciate any help, and I really need it.
 
It is a system-on-chip, way overkill for a simple encoder.
