WARNING!
ESD protection
Encoder modules are ESD sensitive - handle with care. Do not touch
electronic circuit or sensor area without proper ESD protection or outside of
ESD controlled environment.

Output types
Incremental outputs
There are three signals for the incremental output: A, B and Z. Signals A and B are quadrature signals, shifted by 90°, and signal Z is a
reference mark. The reference mark signal is produced once per revolution. The width of the Z pulse is 1/4 of the quadrature signal period
and it is synchronized with the A and B signals. The position of the reference mark is at zero.
The chart below shows the timing diagram of A, B and Z signals with clockwise (CW) rotation of the magnet and positive counting direction.
B leads A for CW rotation.

Commutation outputs
UVW outputs can be output as digital signals. The number of signal periods (P) equals number of pole pairs. The timing diagram shows the
signals when the position data is increasing. The U signal always starts at zero position regardless the signal period length.
The resolution should be set to 4096 to ensure accurate transitions of the signals.
