Broadcom 5V dc 180 LPI Pulse Optical Encoder, Surface Mount

This range of motion control optical encoders, by Avago Technologies, is available in two and three channel output options. These incremental encoders utilize optical technology for motion control. Incremental encoder devices provide position feedback for incremental counts. Where the feedback signal is always referenced to a start or home position, an incremental encoder provides a uniquely defined, relative position. Avago Technologies offer both optical reflective incremental encoders and optical transmissive incremental encoders. These devices are available as encoder modules for user integration or as complete housed or kit incremental encoders. This range of optical encoders provides accurate positioning and velocity sensing for a variety of applications.

Possible applications include:
printers
copiers
scanners
servo and stepper motor feedback systems
robotic arms
wafer-handling machines

The Broadcom AEDR-8300 series is the smallest optical encoder employing reflective technology for motion control purposes. The encoder combines an emitter and a detector in a single surface mount leadless package. When used with a code wheel or linear code strip, the encoder translates rotary or linear motion into digital output.

Reflective technology
Surface mount small outline leadless package
Two channel quadrature outputs for direction sensing
TTL compatible output
Single 5V supply
-20oC to 85oC absolute operating temperature
Resolution:7.09 lines/mm(180 lines/inch)
