Where can I usean encoder?Encoders are used in all types of motionsensing applications, including machinetooling, semiconductor positioning andmulti-axis positioning. All Koyo encodersfeature a reinforced aluminum diecast casingand come equipped with a two-meter cableor MS connector. Use the incrementalencoders with our PLC high-speed countermodules11 for accurate position monitoringand control. Or use our absolute encoders tomonitor position with gray code and stan-dard PLC DC inputs.

Why buy an encoder from us?There are several distinct advantages topurchasing your encoder fromAUTOMATIONDIRECT:

PriceAs with all of our product lines, our prices are often well below thelist prices of traditional automation suppliers. Our direct businessmodel allows us to operate more efficiently than other suppliersand pass the savings on to you.

QualityAll encoders carry a 1-year warranty, and a 30-day money-backguarantee. If for any reason you are not satisfied with yourpurchase, send it back and we will refund your money.

What is a light-duty encoder?Includes models: TRD-MX, TRDA-2E, TRD-S, TRD-SHA light-duty encoder is a cost-effective encoder requiring minimalload on the shaft. Ours offer the following features:

• Size 10 (1.0 inch or 25mm) diameter body or Size 15 (1.5 inch or 38mm) diameter body

• Dustproof (IP40 or IP50 ) rating• 4mm, 6 mm or 1/4” standard shaft or 8 mm hollow shaft• Resolution available from 100 pulses/revolution to 2500 pulses/revolution

• Open collector or line driver outputs• Up to 200 kHz response frequency

1 Absolute encoders are not compatible with the PLC high-speed counter modules,but can be used with general purpose DC input cards.

What is a medium-duty encoder?Includes models: TRD-N, TRD-NH, TRDA-20, TRDA-25, TRD-NAA medium-duty encoder is the most popular encoder we offer.The product line offers the greatest flexibility of choice while main-taining very high quality, all for a very low price. Our medium-dutyencoders offer:

• Size 20 (2.0 inch or 50mm) diameter body or Size 25 (2.5 inch flange with 2.0 inch diameter body) frames

• Dust Proof (IP50) or splash-proof (IP65) ratings• 8 mm or 3/8” standard shaft or 8 mm hollow shaft• Incremental or absolute (gray code) operation• Incremental resolution available from 3 pulses/revolution to 5000 pulses/revolution

• Absolute resolution available from 32 pulses/revolution to 1024 pulses/revolution

• Open collector, Totem-pole or line driver output versions• Up to 200 kHz response frequency• MS connector models available

What is a heavy-duty encoder?Includes model: TRD-GKA heavy-duty encoder is the most rugged encoder you can buy.Top-of-the-line bearings help maintain a service life of 12 billionrevolutions. Our heavy-duty encoders offer:

• Rugged size 30 (3.0 inch or 78mm) diameter body• Splash-proof (IP65) rating• 10 mm standard shaft• Incremental operation from 30 pulses/revolution to 5000 pulses/revolution

How to read the timingchartsOpen Collector ModelsOut A and Out B are 90 degrees out ofphase. Like any quadrature encoder, fourunique logic states are created internally tothe encoder. This is based on the rising edgeto rising edge (one cycle) on channel A or Bthat indicates one set of bars on the internalencoder disk has passed by the opticalsensor.

OUT Z is the absolute reference added to anincremental encoder and is also known ashome position. It signifies a full rotation ofthe encoder shaft.

Line Driver ModelsChannel A (OUT A and A-not) and ChannelB (OUT B and B-not) are also 90 degreesout of phase on line driver encoders. OUTZ is the same as on open collector models,and is the absolute reference (home posi-tion). It signifies one full rotation of theencoder shaft.

How to read the timingchartsOpen Collector ModelsOut A and Out B are 90 degrees out ofphase. Like any quadrature encoder,four unique logic states are createdinternally to the encoder. This is basedon the rising edge to rising edge (onecycle) on channel A or B that indicatesone set of bars on the internal encoderdisk has passed by the optical sensor.

OUT Z is the absolute reference addedto an incremental encoder and is alsoknown as home position. It signifies afull rotation of the encoder shaft.

Line Driver ModelsChannel A (OUT A and A-not) andChannel B (OUT B and B-not) are also90 degrees out of phase on line driverencoders. OUT Z is the same as onopen collector models, and is theabsolute reference (home position). Itsignifies one full rotation of the encodershaft.

How to read the timing chartsTotem Pole ModelsOut A and Out B are 90 degrees out of phase. Like anyquadrature encoder, four unique logic states are createdinternally to the encoder. This is based on the rising edge torising edge (one cycle) on channel A or B that indicates oneset of bars on the internal encoder disk has passed by theoptical sensor.

OUT Z is the absolute reference added to an incrementalencoder and is also known as home position. It signifies afull rotation of the encoder shaft.

Cable shield is not connected to the encoder body;enclosure is grounded through the 0V wire.

Encoders Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: What is a differential lineoutput?A: Differential output refers to the fact thateach channel has a complement channel,i.e. Channel A and Channel A not. Adifferential line driver is used to helpincrease noise immunity. It also allowsyou to sink or source more current than aTotem-pole output. A differential linedriver will work with either a sinking orsourcing circuit. It can also help inincreasing the distance that a signal istransmitted.

Q: What is an open collectoroutput?A: An open collector output is an NPNtransistor. An NPN transistor allows thesinking of current to common. It can bethought of as a switch that allows thecircuit to be connected to common afterthe load. This means that a source isrequired for the output to work. A supplythrough a load must be connected to theoutput, otherwise the NPN transistor issimply creating a path to common, (i.e., adry contact). Therefore, if you were tomeasure the voltage at the output of anopen collector that is not connected tosome supply, you would not see a changein voltage. The voltage should bemeasured across the output load to deter-mine if the open collector is workingproperly.

Q: What is a Totem-pole output?A: A Totem-pole output, sometimesreferred to as a push-pull output, is abipolar output with active devices that arecontrolled such that, as the resistance ofone increases, the resistance of the otherdecreases; so that according to the rela-tive states of the two active devices, theoutput voltage can swing between levelsapproaching the two supply voltages. Theterm ‘totem-pole output,’ as commonlyused, does not include three-stateoutputs.

Q: What is a quadrature output?A: Quadrature output refers to the use oftwo output channels (A and B) separatedby 90 degrees of phase shift. The fact thatthe signals are 90 degrees out of phaseallows a controller to determine the direc-tion of rotation, i.e. if channel A leads Bthen the encoder is spinning one direction,if B leads A then the other. See the channeltiming charts for a graphical view of thisconcept. Remember that each channel

provides the rated PPR for each encoder.For example: with a 100 PPR encoder,there are 100 pulses per revolution fromchannel A, and 100 pulses from channelB. This is a total of 200 pulses if yourcontroller can count both channels (X2logic). Some controllers can count therising edge and the falling edge of eachpulse (on both channels) therebyincreasing the effective resolution by afactor of four (X4 logic), and counting 400edges per revolution on a 100 PPR quad-rature encoder. This doesn't mean thatthere are 400 pulses coming from a 100PPR quadrature encoder.

Q: Why do I need a pull-upresistor?A: A pull-up resistor is used to pull thelogic high voltage level up to the level ofthe operating voltage. This is useful whenthe output of the open collector is notreaching the voltage level needed to indi-cate a logic high signal or when noise ispresent on the signal line. When a logichigh signal is present, its voltage level willbe approximately that of the operatingvoltage for an open circuit. The differenceis due to the voltage drop across the pull-up resistor. This is not necessarily true ifthe load is referenced to ground. Pull-upresistors are also used to convert sinkingdevices to sourcing devices, which invertsthe pulse train.

Q: What is the differencebetween X2 and X4 logic?A: Some devices that are commonly inter-faced to encoders (controllers, counters,displays) can detect more events per revo-lution than the rated PPR output of aquadrature encoder signal. Because aquadrature encoder provides two chan-nels of pulses, a controller that counts thepulses on both channels can count twice(X2) the PPR output of a given encoder.For example, a controller with X2 logiccan count 240 pulses per rev. from a 120PPR encoder. Some controllers can countthe rising edge and the falling edge ofeach pulse (on both channels) therebycounting four times (X4) the PPR rating ofthe encoder (or 480 edges per revolutionin our example). It's important toremember that a quadrature encoderproduces two channels of pulses at agiven PPR. X2 or X4 logic refers to howthe controller (or other device) interpretsthose pulse streams.

Q: Is shielded cable needed?A: YES. The use of shielded cable is highlyrecommended. This is especially true forareas in which large amounts of electricalnoise exist. If you are having any noise prob-lems, or suspect that you might, then use ashielded cable.

Q: How do I set my calibrationconstant?A: The calibration constant can be simpli-fied by selecting the correct pulses perrevolution (PPR). When choosing yourcalibration constant, remember: thecloser to 1, the better. The value of thecalibration constant is your best resolutionper pulse of the encoder.

Q: How do I choose the pulsesper revolution (PPR)?A: When choosing the PPR value of theencoder, you should follow a few simplerules. Make sure that you do not choosea PPR that will exceed the maximum inputfrequency of the controller (or whateverdevice the encoder is driving). To calcu-late the max frequency of the encodersignal (in Hz): simply multiply the speedthat the encoder will spin (in revs/sec) bythe PPR of the encoder (don't forget totake X2 or X4 logic into account if itapplies for your application). Try to chosea PPR that is an even multiple of the valueyou are trying to measure or display. Forexample, if one revolution of the encoderequates to 12 inches of travel, you mightchose a 1200 PPR encoder. This caneliminate or simplify the need for a cali-bration constant or scaling factor andmore importantly, it eliminates the possi-bility of accumulating a rounding errorover many cycles of the encoder. In thisexample you would be able to measurethe travel to a resolution of 1/100 of aninch. You should also consider any 2x or4x counting logic in your controller. Ifyour controller can "see" pulses on boththe A and B channels (2x logic), then itwill count 2400 pulses for every 12inches of travel in our example. If thecontroller counts both the leading edgeand the trailing edge of each of thepulses on both channels (4x logic), then itwill count 4800 edges per revolution andyour effective resolution would increase to1/400 of an inch per count.

Encoders Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: How accurate will an encoderbe in my application?A: Encoders can provide a very accurateindication of rotational position, but it'simpossible to say how accurate a givenencoder will be in a real-world applica-tion. Mechanical inaccuracies and elec-trical issues such as noise, or lost countscan affect the accuracy of any system. Agood rule of thumb is to design thesystem to measure from 2 to 5 times moreresolution than your desired accuracy. Forexample: if you wish to accuratelymeasure movement of 1/100th of aninch, you should select an encoder thatcan deliver at least 200 counts per inchof resolution. In a rotary application - ifyou need accuracy within 6 degrees,select an encoder that can deliver at least120 counts per revolution ( a resolutionof 3 degrees) to your controller.

Q: How far away can I place myencoder from my system?A: There is no set answer to this question.Many factors play a role in determiningthe maximum length of cable that can beused to connect the units together. Thelargest problem with running long lengthsof cable is that the cable becomes moresusceptible to noise. This is due to thecapacitance of the cable, the cable actingas an antenna, and the loss of powerthrough the cable. The maximum distanceof cable can be achieved by followingsome basic wiring principles. Do not runthe cable near objects that create a lot ofelectrical noise. This includes AC motors,arc welders, AC power lines, and trans-formers. Use twisted pair cabling whenusing the signal and its compliment, andshielded cabling when running any type ofsignal. Use the highest voltage availablefor the output voltage. For example, if theencoder will output 5 to 24 volts, then use24 volts. Use an open collector or differ-ential line driver output with a differentialreceiver so that the maximum amount ofcurrent can be sink/sourced. If you areusing the encoder as an input to morethan one controller, use a signal amplifier.This is also a good way to help increasethe distance a signal can travel. Typicalmaximum distances for a differential linedriver are around 100ft., or more whenusing a differential input, and for an opencollector the distance is around 35 ft.

Q: Why use an absoluteencoder?A: An absolute encoder has each positionof the revolution uniquely numbered. Thismeans that instead of an output of pulses,you get an output that is a specific valuein a binary format. This is very usefulwhen exact positioning is a must. If thepower should be lost, the actual value ofthe position will be known when power isrestored, since each location in anabsolute encoder’s revolution is a uniquebinary value. The exact position will beknown even if the controller loses powerand the process is moved.

Q: What is gray code?A: Gray code is a form of binary. Thedifference between gray code and binaryis the method of incrementing to the nextnumber. In gray code, only one digit maychange states for every increment. Thismeans the count sequence would looksomething like this: 0, 1, 3, 2, 6, and 7.This is different than standard binary,where the sequence would be 0,1, 2, 3,4, and 5.

Gray code is used to prevent errors astransitions to the next state occur. Anexample of how an error could occurwould be when both values in thesequence were true. This can occur due tothe timing sequence and the capacitanceof the cable. The transition from 0011 to0100 could cause 0111 to be generated.With gray code this is not possible.

Q: How do I convert gray code tobinary?A: The conversion from gray code tobinary is simple.

Step 1: Write the number down and copythe left most digit under itself.

Step 2: Add the highlighted binary digit tothe gray code immediately up and to theright of it. So, 1 plus 1 is 0 dropping thecarried digit. Write the result next to thebinary digit just added. Drop all of thecarried digits.

Step 3: Repeat Step 2 until the number iscompleted.

Q: What is a sinking or sourcingInput?A: Sinking and sourcing inputs simplyrefer to the current flow in a transistor.This means that they require a voltageand a load to operate. A sinking inputrequires the voltage and load to bepresent before connecting it to the circuit.This means that it is “sinking” the currentto ground for the circuit. A sourcing inputmust be before the load in the circuit. Thismeans that it is “sourcing” the current tothe circuit. Voltage and a load must bepresent in either case to detect a voltagechange at the input. The same is true forsinking or sourcing outputs.
