HEDS-97EX Series

Subjecting  the part  to stresses beyond  those  listed under  this section may cause permanent damage  to  the device. These  are  stress  ratings  only  and  do  not  imply  that  the  device  functions  beyond  these  ratings.    Exposure  to  the extremes of these conditions for extended periods may afect device reliability.

The  HEDS-97EX  series  is  a  small  and  high  performance optical  incremental  encoder module. When  operated  in conjunction  with  either  a  codewheel  or  codestrip,  this module  detects  rotary  or  linear  position.    The  encoder 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 photodetec-tor  array,  the module  is  extremely  tolerant  to mounting misalignment.

The  HEDS-97EX  series  two  channel  analog  outputs  and  3.3V  supply  input are accessed through four solder-plated  leads  located on 2.54 mm (0.1 inch.) centers.

HEDS-97EX  is  designed  for  use  with  an  appropriate optical radius codewheel.  Please contact factory for more information.
