Selecting Digital Encoder Outputs

Sept. 27, 2024
Closed-loop feedback is where the encoder signals control the motor without any user inputs. Open loop feedback is where the encoder signal runs to a display and the user adjusts the motor to fit a desired output.

The output type for an encoder is an important consideration when specifying an encoder for a motion control application. The first consideration is the number of output channels, and the second consideration is the receiving device. It is vital to remember that it is the receiving device that determines the correct configuration of the encoder’s outputs. Read on to learn how you can keep your feedback system functioning properly by selecting the proper digital encoder outputs.
