SM encoder module for OEM integration Need a low cost incremental encoder module for direct integration into your own OEM motion control application? Lika Electronic introduces the miniature yet complete solution for any rotary and linear position feedback needs.
SM is the incremental encoder module specifically designed to be built into a variety of OEM systems. Thanks to its electronic engineering design with miniature footprint and selected microcomponents, it is ideal to be easily integrated into printed circuit boards (PCBs) to match exact customer requirements. SM fully incorporates the magnetoresistive sensor, the interpolator and the conversion electronics protected in a resin-encapsulated enclosure ensuring good mechanical strength and electrical insulation; furthermore it features pin connections for direct soldering to PCBs. The power supply circuit and EMC protections must be provided on the main board. The robust non-contact magnetic technology ensures wear-free operation and liberal mounting tole-
rances in a wide range of temperatures for great ease of installation. SM provides quadrature digital signals with inverted signals via either HTL (Push-Pull +10 +30Vdc) or TTL (Line Driver +5Vdc) output circuit. Resolution is down to microns. SM can be paired with both linear scales and magnetic rings for position control in linear and rotary installations.
Among the typical applications: • CCTV closed-circuit television products (surveillance cameras, network cameras, …); • biomedical equipment (examination tables, X-ray machines, dentist’s chairs, laboratory testing devices); • assembly equipment; • industrial pick & place robots and manipulators; • printing machines; • test and measurement instruments.
