The famous E15ET turbo distributor fits in an A12 and uses an optical crank angle sensor. It was used as a trigger for ECU-based electronic spark control. 280ZX Turbo used it as did S13 and many other Nissans.

The crank angle sensor is a thin aluminum disc, which is actually perforated 360 times. In this photo you can make out the screw under the disc, seen through the perforations.

Note the second (inner) row of perforations. These are the Cam position marks.
E-series CAS
A.k.a. Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS).
Fits in A12 engine. Only the A12 distributor gear needs to be swapped. For A14/A15 and newer A12, the hold-down needs to be modified

SR20DET CAS (for COP) vs SR20DE distributor/CAS
SR20 CAS converted for use with A-series engine.
Nissan optical CAS/CPS unit can be used to trigger MegaSquirt ECU for electronic spark control of coil packs.
KA24DE
KA is an L-series descendent so uses a distributor like the L20B but with a gear on the end.
Has an 8-2-2-2 slit wheel.

FJ CAS
rally1200: the FJ20 dissy has 2 outputs
1. 4 pulses per revolution
2. Reference lots of pulses (360?) per revolution (don’t use)
for my setup i had to drill a small hole in the optic plate to create a 5 pulse next to number 1 pulse (easily done)

Nissan discs vary by CPS (inner ring).

Using With A-series
D4P can be used as a trigger for ECU-based electronic spark control and for fuel injection.
See D4P
Coil On Plug
See main article: COP
Control Box
Nissan
A stock Nissan ECU can be used with an A-series engine. Use it with all the stock Fuel Injection parts from the donor Nissan. For spark-only control, leave the injector harness unplugged. Custom spark maps cab be programmed.
MegaSquirt
Nissan optical CAS/CPS unit can be used to trigger MegaSquirt ECU for electronic spark control of coil packs. MegaSquirt III with the latest firmware download can use the stock Nissan trigger wheels, while MegaSquirt II generally require a swap to a special low resolution trigger wheel.
It may also be used for sequential fuel injection.
