Description
The HEDS-9000 and the HEDS-9100 series are high
performance, low cost, optical incremental encoder
modules. When used with a code wheel, these mod-
ules detect rotary position. The modules consist of a
lensed (LED) source and a detector IC enclosed in a small
C-shaped plastic package. Due to a highly col limated
light source and unique photode tec tor array, these mod-
ules are extremely tolerant to mounting misalignment.
The two channel digital outputs and the single 5 V sup-
ply input are accessed through fi ve 0.025 inch square
pins located on 0.1 inch centers.
Standard resolutions for the HEDS-9000 are 500 CPR
and 1000 CPR for use with a HEDS-6100 codewheel or
equivalent.
For the HEDS-9100, standard resolutions between 96
CPR and 512 CPR are available for use with a HEDS-5120
codewheel or equivalent.
ESD WARNING: NORMAL HANDLING PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO AVOID STATIC DISCHARGE.

Applications
The HEDS-9000 and 9100 provide sophisticated mo-
tion detection at a low cost, making them ideal for high
volume applications. Typical applica tions include print-
ers, plotters, tape drives, and factory automation equip-
ment.
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 represen-
tative if more clarifi cation is needed.
