3 Channel Refl ective Incremental Encoders

Description
The AEDR-850X encoder is the smallest 3 channels optical
encoder with digital outputs in the market employing
refl ective technology for motion control purposes. The
encoder is designed to operate over -20° C to 85° C temperature
range and hence suitable for both commercial
and even industrial end applications.
The encoder houses an LED light source and a photodetecting
circuitry in a single package. The small size of
3.95 mm (L) x 3.4 mm (W) x 0.9562 mm (H), allows it to be
even used in a wide range of miniature commercial application
where size and space is a primary concern.
The AEDR-850X encoder off ers two-channel quadrature
digital outputs and a 3rd channel, index digital outputs.
Being TTL compatible, the outputs of the AEDR-850X
encoder can be interfaced directly with most of the signal
processing circuitries. Hence the encoder provides great
design-in fl exibility and easy integration into existing
systems.
