AEDR-8300 Series Encoders Reflective Surface Mount Optical Encoder Data Sheet Description Features The AEDR-8300 series is the smallest optical encoder employing reflective technology for motion control purposes. The encoder houses an LED light source and a photo-detecting circuitry in a single package. * Reflective technology The AEDS-8300 series offers options of either single channel or two-channel quadrature digital outputs. Being TTL compatible, the outputs of the AEDR-8300 series can be interfaced directly with most of the signal processing circuitries. Hence the encoder provides great design-in flexibility and easy integration into existing systems. The AEDR-8300 series is available in four resolutions, namely 36, 75, 150 and 180 lines per inch (LPI) (1.42, 2.95, 5.91 and 7.09 lines per mm respectively). This range of resolutions caters for different design and application needs. * Two channel quadrature outputs for direction sensing Applications The AEDR-8300 series provides motion sensing at a competitive cost, making it ideal for high volume applications. Its small size and surface mount package make it ideal for printers, copiers, card readers and many consumer products, particularly where space and weigh are design constraint. Note: All specifications are subject to change without prior notification. * Surface mount small outline leadless package * Single channel incremental output * TTL compatible output * Single 5V supply * -20oC to 85oC absolute operating temperature * Encoding resolution options: 36, 75, 150, 180 (lines/inch) or 1.42, 2.95, 5.91, 7.09 (lines/mm) Theory of Operation Definitions The AEDR-8300 series combines an emitter and a detector in a single surface mount leadless package. When used with a codewheel or linear codestrip, the encoder translates rotary or linear motion into digital outputs. As seen in the block diagram, the AEDR-8300 consists of three major components: a light emitting diode (LED) light source, a detector IC consisting photodiodes and lens to focus light beam from the emitter as well as light falling on the detector. State Width (S): The number of electrical degrees between a transition in Channel A and the neighboring transition in Channel B. There are 4 states per cycle, each nominally 90oe. The operation of the encoder is based on the principle of optics where the detector photodiodes sense the absence and presence of light. In this case, the rotary/linear motion of an object being monitored is converted to equivalent light pattern via the use of codewheel/ codestrip. As shown in the diagram below, the reflective area (window) of the codewheel (or codestrip) reflects light back to the photodetector IC, whereas no light is reflected by the non-reflective area (bar). An alternating light and dark patterns corresponding to the window and bar fall on the photodiodes as the codewheel rotates. The moving light pattern is exploited by the detector circuitry to produce digital outputs representing the rotation of the codewheel. When the codewheel is coupled to a motor, the encoder outputs is then a direct representation of the motor rotation. The same concept applies to the use of a codestrip to detect linear motion.

LED Current Limiting Resistor Moisture Sensitive Level A resistor to limit current to the LED is required. The recommended value is 220W (10 %) and the resistor should be placed in series between the 5V supply and pin 3 of the device (Vled). This will result in an LED current of approximately 15 mA. The AEDR-8300 series is specified to moisture sensitive level (MSL) 3.
