HEDS-973x Series
Small Optical Encoder Modules
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The HEDS-973x series is a high performance, low cost,
optical incremental encoder module. When operated in
conjunction with either a codewheel or codestrip, this
module detects rotary or linear position. The module
consists of a lensed LED source and a detector IC enclosed
in a small C-shaped plastic package. Due to a highly
collimated light source and a unique photodetector array,
the module is extremely tolerant to mounting
misalignment.
