The cheaper MKS uses the A1333 encoder. At first people all thought it was the lesser encoder, based on the bits.
Khalid dug down to the truth.
Alex actually bought a pair and did extensive testing.

Looking at the datasheets, I see that A1333 has a lower resolution - 12 bits, whereas AS5047D?has 14 bits.?
That is what I thought too, based on the 12bits vs. 14bits specs.?But the datasheet for the AS5047D says otherwise: 2048 clicks maximum.Also, in the??there are these lines in the respective header file for each model:#define A1333_DEGREES_PER_BIT? (360.0/(float)(0x7FFF))So: 0.0109 degree per bit#define AS5047D_DEGREES_PER_BIT? (360.0/(float)(0x3FFF))So: 0.0219 degree per bitNo wonder MKS went with the A1333.
