Encoder is light sensor that detects and converts mechanical transfer or displacement into electrci signal. It detects the position, speed, angle by means of converting analog signal generated from a revolution of the shaft into digital signal by the internal fixed circuit.
- Rotating Paddle Type :
1. Open Collector.
2. Push Pull Output.
3. Line Driver Output Channels.
1. A,B Phase : The output signal of A,B Phase are output with 90 of phase difference. It is the signal to discriminate the rotation direction.
2. Z Phase : One Z Phase is output per one rotation, which is called origin signal. Resolution (Pulses Per Revolutions) means the number of pulse which is output from 1 revolution of the rotating shaft of rotary encoder. In case of incremental encoder, it can be indicated in the number of rotating slits, In case of Absolute encoder, it can be indicated in number of divisions or bit high resolution from 100 to 6000P/R.
