TECHNICAL ANALYSIS OF BRUSH AND BRUSHLESS TYPE SHAFT POSITION ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL ENCODERS

摘要

A tabulation of all existing encoders has been compiled. The devices are of the analog-to-digital type and include the brush and brushless (Magnetic, capacitive and optical) types for which data was available. Indices have been prepared so that it is possible to locate an encoder in the tables when only minimal infor¬mation is available to the designer, There are four such indices identifiable by size or diameter, output code, manufacturer, and manufacturer's catalog number. In each index five of the parameters considered to be most significant are included to partially define the encoder. The last column directs the reader to the table, via an index number, where all mechanical and electrical characteristics are listed for full identification.
