The HEDB-9040 series are three channel optical incremental encoder modules offered with a codewheel. When used with a codewheel, these low cost modules detect rotary position. Each module consists of a lensed LED source and a detector IC enclosed in a small plastic package. Due to a highly collimated light source and a unique photodetector array, these modules are extremely tolerant to mounting misalignment.
The HEDB-9040 has two channel quadrature outputs plus a third channel index output. This index output is a 90 electrical degree high true index pulse which is generated once for each full rotation of the codewheel. The HEDB-9040 is designed for use with a HEDS-6140 codewheel which has an optical radius of 23.36 mm (0.920 inch). The quadrature signals and the index pulse are accessed through five 0.025 inch square pins located on 0.1 inch (pitch) centers.
