EJ5101 | Incremental encoder interface

The EJ5101 EtherCAT plug-in module is an interface for the direct connection of incremental encoders with differential inputs (RS422). A 32/16 bit counter with a quadrature decoder and a 32/16 bit latch for the zero pulse can be read, set or enabled. Incremental encoders with alarm outputs can be connected at the interface’s status input. Interval and frequency measurement with a resolution of up to 100 ns is possible. The gate input allows the counter to be halted. The counter state is taken over with a rising or trailing edge at the latch input.

Due to the optional interpolating microincrement function, the EJ5101 can supply even more precise axis positions for dynamic axes. In addition, it supports the synchronous reading of the encoder value together with other input data in the EtherCAT system via high-precision EtherCAT distributed clocks (DC). Optionally, the time stamp of the last-registered increment edge based on the distributed clocks system can be output.
