Performance Benefits:

By combining high performance, proven reliability and low cost, the DataTorque SM23 is ideal as a multi-purpose optical incremental encoder. With a monolithic solar array and stop gap diffusion, it is ideal for applications requiring noise immunity.

All DataTorque Encoders can be custom configured to meet specific, high volume OEM requirements. We can accommodate many specialized combinations of electrical and mechanical interfaces. Please consult our experienced team of application engineers for details on custom OEM products.

Design Features:

The DataTorque SM23 Encoder is manufactured with precision surface mount technology. It also includes VMOS and CMOS circuitry, providing the encoder with superior isolation between the output leads and the internal circuitry of the encoder.

The DataTorque SM23 is available with differential line driver output. The differential array tracks evenly under temperature, voltage and light source variations. A variety of options are available to meet each customers individual needs and requirements.

The DataTorque SM23 is an optical incremental encoder with resolution of 1-2500 CPR (cycles per revolution). It is accurate to +/- 6 arc seconds (pulse to adjacent pulse) and +/- 3 arc minutes (pulse to any other pulse).
