Description
The HEDS-5700 series is a family of low cost, high per-
formance, optical incremental encoders with mounted
shafts and bushings. The HEDS-5700 is available with
tactile feedback for hand operated panel mount
applications, or with a free spinning shaft for applica tions
requiring a pre-assembled encoder for position sensing.
The encoder contains a collimated LED light source and
special detector circuit which allows for high resolution,
excellent encod ing performance, long rotational life, and
increased reliability. The unit outputs two digital wave-
forms which are 90 degrees out of phase to provide
position and direction information. The HEDS-5740 Series
provides a third Index Channel.
The HEDS-5700 is quickly and easily mounted to a front
panel using the threaded bushing, or it can be directly
coupled to a motor shaft (or gear train) for position
sensing applications.

Applications
The HEDS-5700 with the static drag option is best suited
for applications requiring digital information from a
manually operated knob. Typical front panel applications
include instruments, CAD/CAM systems, and audio/video
control boards.
The HEDS-5700 without static drag (free spinning) is best
suited for low speed, mechanized operations. Typical
applications are copiers, X-Y tables, and assembly line
equipment.
Note: Avago Technologies encoders are not recommend-
ed for use in safety critical applications. Eg. ABS braking
systems, power steering, life support systems and critical
care medical equipment. Please contact sales representa-
tive if more clari cation is needed.
