AEDT-9140 Series
High Temperature 115qC

Three Channel Optical Incremental Encoder Modules
100 CPR to 1000 CPR
Data Sheet
Description
The AEDT-9140 series are three channel optical incremen-
tal encoder modules. 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 AEDT-9140 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 AEDT-9140 optical encoder is designed for use with a
codewheel which has an optical radius of 11.00 mm (0.433
inch) for 100 CPR to 1000 CPR and 11.68 mm (0.460 inch)
for 1000 CPR.
The quadrature signals and the index pulse are accessed
through ve 0.46 mm square pins located on 1.27 mm
(pitch) centers.

Theory of Operation
The AEDT-9140 is an emitter/detector module. Coupled
with a codewheel, these modules translates rotary motion
of a shaft into a three-channel digital output.
As seen in Figure 1, the modules contain a single Light
Emitting Diode (LED) as its light source. The light is col-
limated into a parallel beam by means of a single poly-
carbonate lens located directly over the LED. Opposite the
emitter is the integrated detector circuit. This IC consists
of multiple sets of photodetectors and the signal process-
ing circuitry necessary to produce the digital waveforms.
The codewheel rotates between the emitter and detector,
causing the light beam to be interrupted by the pattern of
spaces and bars on the codewheel.
The photodiodes which detect these interruptions are
arranged in a pattern that corresponds to the radius and
design of the code-wheel. These detectors are also spaced
such that a light period on one pair of detectors corre-
sponds to a dark period on the adjacent pair of detectors.
The photodiode outputs are then fed through the signal
processing circuitry resulting in A, A-bar, B, B-bar, I and I-
bar. Comparators receive these signals and produce the
nal output for channels A and B. Due to this integrated
phasing technique, the digital output of channel A is
in quadrature with that of channel B (90 degrees out of
phase).
Denitions
Note: Refer to Figure 2
Cycles (N): The number of electrical cycles per revolution
(CPR). Note: CPR refers to the raw signal from encoder, that
is the cycles before 4x decode.
One Cycle (C): 360 electrical degrees (qe).
One Shaft Rotation: 360 mechanical degrees, N cycles.
Cycle Error ('C): An indication of cycle uniformity. The dier-
ence between an observed shaft angle which gives rise to
one electrical cycle, and the nominal angular increment of
1/N of a revolution.
Pulse Width (S): The number of electrical degrees that an
output is high during 1 cycle. This value is nominally
180e or 1/2 cycle.
Pulse Width Error ('P): The deviation, in electrical degrees, of
the pulse width from its ideal value of 180e.
State Width (S): The number of electrical degrees between a
transition in the output of channel A and the neighboring
transition in the output of channel B. There are 4 states per
cycle, each nominally 90e.
State Width Error ('S): The deviation, in electrical degrees, of
each state width from its ideal value of 90e.
Phase Error ('I): The deviation of the phase from its ideal
value of 90e.
Direction of Rotation: When the codewheel rotates in the
clockwise direction viewing from top of the module (di-
rection from V to G), channel A will lead channel B. If the
codewheel rotates in the opposite direction, channel B
will lead channel A.
Optical Radius (Rop): The distance from the codewheels cen-
ter of rotation to the optical center (O.C) of the encoder
module.
Index Pulse Width (Po): The number of electrical degrees that
an index is high during one full shaft rotation. This value is
nominally 90qe or 1/4 cycle.

Electrical Interface
To ensure reliable encoding performance, the AEDT-9140
three channel encoder modules require 2.7 k ( 10%)
pull-up resistors on output pins 2, 3, and 5 (Channels A, I
and B) as shown in Figure 3. These pull-up resistors should
be located as close to the encoder module as possible
(within 4 feet). Each of the three encoder module outputs
can drive a single TTL load in this conguration.
Figure 3.
Customized Solutions
Customization of codewheel CPR is possible. It has to be
based on the encoder LPI table given below.
Part Number LPI
AEDT-9140-C00 36.7
AEDT-9140-E00 73.5
AEDT-9140-F00 94
AEDT-9140-G00 132.3
AEDT-9140-H00 147
AEDT-9140-A00 183
AEDT-9140-I00 188
AEDT-9140-B0B 346
AEDT-9140-B00 367.5
CPR calculation formula:
CPR = LPI x 2 x S x ROP
25.4
Where:
CPR = Counts Per Revolution
LPI = Encoder LPI provided in the table
ROP = Encoder Optical Radius in mm
* Recommended maximum codewheel diameter should
not exceed 30mm.
Note: The customization of the codewheel method is valid from theoreti-
cal standpoint. However Avago strongly recommends a full character-
ization to be done to determine the actual performance of the encoder
with customized codewheel.
Characterization means validating the encoding performance (consist
of cycle error, pulse width error, logic state width error, phase error, po-
sition error & index pulse width, index channel rise and fall time over
the recommended operating conditions and recommended mounting
tolerances.
