High-resolution two- or three-channel -quick-assembly encoders

Mouser now stocks Avago Technologies AEDC-5xxx series encoders. The devices provide a connector latch on the cover housing to improve connector retention. They are built upon the proven Avago AEDT-9810 series encoder module and provide the same performance, low cost, high reliability, high resolution and ease of assembly. Each encoder contains a LED source with lens, an ASIC with integrated photo detector arrays, LED current regulation, interpolator and output driver circuitry, and a code wheel which rotates between the emitter and detector ASIC. The outputs of the AEDC-5xxx are two square waves in quadrature. In addition, a third channel offers index signal, which is a 90 electrical degree, true index pulse which is generated once for each full rotation of the code wheel. The AEDC-5xxx series utilizes a film code wheel allowing for resolutions up to 5000 CPR and accommodating shaft diameters from 2mm to 8mm.
