EBR7912EBI-CA-KA
Incremental Sensor Module with Reference
The sensor module EBR7912EBI-CA contains an Anisotropic
MagnetoResistive (AMR) FixPitch sensor AL796 with 2 mm magnetic pitch
and a Giant MagnetoResistive (GMR) sensor GF705 for the reference signal.
The sensor module has an JST-connector with all necessary connections and
two holes at the edges of the circuit board for mounting. The sensor module is
calibrated, so you will get signals with a high performance and low jitter. The
used ASIC is fully programmable and changes (for example the resolution)
can be done with a programming tool.
When used with the magnetic scale MWR0032KAC-KH with 2 mm pitch,
the module delivers two differential rectangular signals (A and B) and a dif-
ferential reference pulse (Z) per revolution. The flank-to-flank resolution of the
incremental signal is 0.088 deg.
