DetailsRK_L series is a high performance, low cost, optical 2-channel incremental encoder module for wide voltage range operation.
It consists of a highly collimated light source and a detector IC enclosed in a small C shaped plastic package, matched with a code-disc or code-strip, it provides information of rotary or linear position.
RK_L series has linear (LPI) options:20, 37, 45, 75,90,120,150,180, 254,300,360,450.
Photo-detector Array
-20°C to +85°C Operating Temperature
Multiple LPI options
C-Shape Structure, Easy to Mount
TTL Compatible
Single-end 3.3V to 5V Supply
Typical applications include: Printers, Plotters, Servo motors, DC motors, Office automation etc.
Safety Notice: Not recommended for use in safety critical application. Eg. ABS braking system.
