Description

The HRPG-AD16#16C series is a family of miniature panel mount optical rotary encoders, also known as Rotary Pulse Generators (RPG) and digital potentiometers. The HRPG rotary encoder is designed to be mounted on a front panel and used as a rotary, data-entry device. The HRPG rotary encoder is very flexible for numerous applications due to the many configuration options available. These options include detents or smooth, multiple terminations, versatile mounting capabilities, and different shaft configurations.

The HRPG-AD16#16C rotary encoders uses optical reflective technology providing accuracy and reliability to the rotary  encoder. An LED emits a beam of light onto the specular codewheel surface. When the light strikes the surface, it projects the image of the codewheel back on the photodetector, causing the output to change. The entire detector circuit is on one IC, thus the part is less sensitive to temperature and other environmental variations.
