HTL single-ended encoders Circuit characteristics: - threshold low = 3.6 V ... 5.6 V- threshold high = 7.4 V ... 8.2 V- hysteresis = 2.6 V ... 3.6 V- current sink from encoder output high = 2.1mA- current sourced to encoder output low = 0.6mA- maximum input voltage (operation guaranteed, no destruction) = 40V- maximum [...]

Single ended 24V PNP P&D signals adaptation for Fdbk. #1 of iPOS48xy & iPOS80xy In case of a P&D masters that have 24 V PNP outputs, the following adaptation circuit should be used, to connect the pulse and direction signals to the "Feedback #1" connector (set for single ended inputs) of the iPOS4803, iPOS4808, iPOS4806, [...]

In case of very long motor and feedback sensor cables please check the following recommendations: Motor connection  1) Mount some inductance in series with the motor wires (immediately after the drive motor output terminals). Remarks: - the additional inductance value should be selected function to the minimum required inductance and to the minimum required electrical [...]

Connecting an encoder to the gearbox instead of the motor shaft is only possible in the following situations: A stepper motor is controlled in open loop A brushed (DC) motor is used A brushless motor equipped with digital hall sensors is used (trapezoidal commutation of the motor) Here are the configurations that need the encoder to be [...]
