Abstract

An optical encoder comprises an encoding disc and an optical detector which are correspondingly arranged. The optical detector is used for receiving light. The optical detector comprises at least one light sensing assembly, and the light sensing assemblies are arranged to form at least one light sensing array. The width of the light sensing array corresponds to a fine division period of the optical encoder.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an encoder, especially an optical encoder with high resolution. Background technique [0002] The encoder uses optical, magnetic or mechanical contacts to sense the position, converts the position into an electrical signal, and outputs it to the driver as a feedback signal when the driver controls the position. According to the motion mode, it can be divided into rotary encoder or linear encoder. Rotary encoders can convert the rotational position or amount of rotation into analog or digital electrical signals, and are generally installed on rotating objects, such as motor shafts. Linear encoders convert linear position or linear displacement into electrical signals in a similar manner. At present, encoders are widely used in machine tools, robots, and semiconductor equipment as sensing modules for servo motor positioning, and the accuracy of encoders will directly affect the positioning performance of mechanical equi...
