Absolute linear encoder LinACE™

magneticmechanicalnon-contact

LinACE™ flat-board is a board-level absolute linear magnetic encoder system designed for motion control applications as a position and velocity control loop element. The readhead length only 30 mm and low weight of the encoder system make it suitable for applications with limited space. LinACE™ flat-board provides accurate measurements with excellent resolution and repeatability. The encoders are available in asynchronous serial over RS422, SSI and BiSS C output versions and offer a range of selectable resolutions from 10 μm to 0.5 μm with speeds up to 5 m/s. The position of the encoder is maintained even if the shaft rotates during forward and backward movement. Benefits Built-in self-monitoring Excellent resistance to stray magnetic fields Stable over whole temperature range Suitable for highly dynamic control loops Non-contact technology for high reliability Product data System System accuracy Up to ±10 µm Repeatability Better than unit of resolution Hysteresis Less than unit of resolution (without mechanical assembly influence) Electrical ESD protection HBM, Class 2, ± 2 kV (valid only on RS422 signals on connector; do not touch other components) Supply voltage 4.5 V to 5.5 V – voltage on readhead. Consider voltage drop over cable Set-up time 5 ms (after power-on) Current consumption Typ. 115 mA, max. 150 mA (without output load) Environmental Humidity 0 to 70 % non-condensing
