AS35-M23S Series
23 Bits Single-Turn Absolute Encoder Module
Data Sheet
Description
The Broadcom® AS35-M21S/M23S series encoder is a high-resolution optical absolute encoder module, which offers up to 23 bits single-turn resolution. This absolute encoder series is a module encoder consisting of a patterned disk, a light source, and photosensitive elements to translate the mechanical motion into electrical signals. The single-turn encoder is available with an RS-485 standard compliant communication protocol and supported by a half-duplex differential line transmissions driver. These features offer good noise immunity for a robust data transmission at 2.5Mb/s in harsh industrial applications.
