Description
The iC-MH16 12-bit angular encoder is a position
sensor with integrated Hall sensors for scanning a
permanent magnet. The signal conditioning unit generates
constant-amplitude sine and cosine voltages
that can be used for angle calculation. The resolution
can be programmed up to a maximum of 4 096
angular increments per rotation; the zero position is
adjustable.
The incremental interface with the pins A, B and Z
supplies quadrature signals with an edge rate of up
to 16 MHz. Interpolation is performed with maximum
resolution at a speed of 200 000 rpm.
The RS422-compatible outputs of the incremental interface
are programmable in the output current and
the slew rate.
The commutation interface with the signals U, V and
W provides 120 ° phase-shifted signals for block commutation
of EC motors with up to 16 pole pairs.
The integrated serial interface also enables the position
data to be read out to several networked sensors.
The integrated memory can be written embedded in
the data protocol.
In conjunction with a rotating permanent magnet, the
iC-MH16 module forms an one-chip encoder including
protection against a reversed power supply voltage.
The entire configuration can be stored in the internal
parameter ROM with zapping diodes. The integrated
programming algorithm assumes writing of the ROM
structure.
