3.2 Function of an Encoder

An encoder is a measuring device that converts rotational
movements into electrical signals. A distinction is drawn
between incremental and absolute encoders. Both deliver dif-
ferent output signals:
• Incremental encoders:
Equivalent pulse sequences whose number is proportional
to the traveled rotation angle.
• Absolute encoders:
Digital information, that is to sat that every angular position
is a unique bit pattern.
• A combination of incremental and absolute signals is also
possible.

Singleturn encoders determine the shaft position for every re-
volution. This results in a position area — with different resol-
utions according to the type — within 360°.
Compared with the singleturn variants, multiturn variants
have in addition the possibility to determine the absolute posi-
tions over multiple revolutions. This results in a position area
>360°.
In the encoder system described here, the incremental in-
formation is provided by means of an analog sine-cosine
(SinCos) signal. The absolute information is transmitted in the
form of a digital data word (BiSS or SSI).
