HRPG-AS16-17F

The HRPG series is a family of miniature panel mount optical encoders, also known as Rotary Pulse Generators (RPG) and digital potentiometers. The HRPG is designed to be mounted on a front panel and used as a rotary, data-entry device. The HRPG is very flexible for numerous applica tions due to the many configu ration options available. These options include detents or smooth, multiple terminations, versatile mounting capabilities, and diff erent shaft configurations. The HRPG uses optical refl ective technology providing accuracy and reliabil ity to the encoder. An LED emits a beam of light onto the specular codewheel surface. When the light strikes the surface, it projects the image of the code wheel back on the photo detector, causing the output to change. The entire detector circuit is on one IC, thus the part is less sensitive to temperature and other environ mental variations.
