Additional Details

The QEDS-9100-S00 encoder module consists of an LED source, a detector IC, and a code wheel or strip. As the code wheel or strip rotates, the encoder module generates two quadrature output signals that can be used to determine the position, direction, and speed of the rotating object. The module operates on a single 5V power supply and provides TTL compatible output signals. It features a compact design that allows for easy integration into various applications. The QEDS-9100-S00 operates over a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments. The resolution of the encoder depends on the specific code wheel or strip used with the module.
