Renco Encoders Inc: Compact optical encoder

Renco Encoders has introduced a 3.3 V feature for the RCML15 compact optical encoder, which provides signals for brushless motor commutation as well as incremental position feedback in a low profile (.350” heigh) optical encoder. A custom LED and CMOS sensor arrangement reduces cost while improving performance and reliability of the encoder package.

Apr 5th, 2007

Encoder frequency response reaches 500 KHz. Supply voltage is +3.3 VDC +/- 10% Max Ripple, 40mv pk-pk. The RCML features the company’s slide/gap mechanism for ease of installation and maximum performance, and +/-20º rotation of the encoder to align the commutation signals with the motor poles.
