Description
The HEDR-8000/8100 Series encoders use re ective
technol ogy to sense rotary or linear position. This sensor
con sists of an LED light source and a photodetector IC in
a single SO-8 surface mount package. When used with a
re ective codewheel or codestrip, this device can sense
rotary or linear position.

Block Diagram
The re ective surface mount optical encoders provide
two square wave outputs in quadra ture for count and
direction information. These TTL compatible outputs
correspond to the alternating re ective/non-re ective
pattern of the codewheel or codestrip.
The HEDR-8000/8100 series encoders can be used over
a range of codewheel and code strip resolu tions. The
HEDR-8000/8100 re ective encoder can operate from
2.76 to 2.95 lines per mm (70 to 75 lines per inch). The
HEDR-8100 can be used with a codewheel or code strip
with 150 lines per inch (5.91 lines per mm).
Applications
The HEDR-8000/8100 series provides two channel
motion sensing at a very low cost, making it ideal for
high volume applications. Its small size and surface
mount capability make it ideal for printers, copiers, card
readers, and consumer product applications.
Note: Avago Technologies encoders are not recommended for
use in safety critical applications. Eg. ABS braking systems, power
steering, life support systems and critical care medical equipment.
Please contact sales representative if more clari cation is needed.
Theory of Operation
The HEDR-8000/8100 series combines an emitter and
a detector in a single surface mount SO-8 pack age.
When used with a codewheel or codestrip, the re ec-
tive sensors translates rotary or linear motion into a two
channel digital output.
As seen in the block diagram, the HEDR-8000/8100 series
has three key parts: a single light emitting diode (LED)
light source, a photodetec tor IC with a set of uniquely
con  gured photodiodes, and a pair of lenses molded
into the package. The lens over the LED focuses light
onto the codewheel or codestrip. Light is either re ected
or not re ected back to the lens over the photodetector
IC.
As the codewheel rotates or codestrip passes by, an
alternat ing pattern of light and dark corresponding
to the pattern of the codewheel falls upon the photo-
diodes. This light is used to produce internal signals A
and A, and B and B. As part of this “push-pull” detector
system, these signals are fed through compara tors to
produce the  nal outputs for channels A and B.

Output Waveforms
De nitions
Count (N): For rotary motion, the number of bar and
window pairs or counts per revolution (CPR) of the code-
wheel. For linear motion, the number of bar and window
pairs per unit length (lines per inch [LPI] or lines per mm
[LPmm]).
One Cycle (C): 360 electrical degrees (°e), 1 bar and
window pair.
One Shaft Rotation: 360 mechanical degrees, N cycles
(rotary motion only).
Line Density: The number of re ective and non-re ec-
tive pairs per unit length, expressed as either lines per
inch (LPI) or lines per mm (LPmm).
Pulse Width (P): The number of electrical degrees that an
output is high during one cycle, nominally 180°e or 1/2
a cycle.
Pulse Width Error (ΔP): The deviation in electrical degrees
of the pulse width from its ideal value of 180°e.
State Width (S): The number of electrical degrees
between a transition in the output of channel A and the
neighboring transition in the output of channel B. There
are 4 states per cycle, each nominally 90°e.
State Width Error (ΔS): The deviation in electrical degrees
of each state width from its ideal value of 90°e.
Phase (φ): The number of electrical degrees between the
center of the high state on channel A and the center of
the high state on channel B. This value is nominally 90°e.
Phase Error (Δφ): The deviation in electrical degrees of
the phase from its ideal value of 90°e.
Direction of Rotation: When the codewheel or codestrip
moves in the direction from pin 1 to pin 4, as viewed
when looking down on the lenses, channel B will lead
channel A. If the codewheel or codestrip moves in the
opposite direction, channel A will lead channel B.
Optical Radius (Rop): For rotary motion, the distance
from the codewheel’s center of rotation to the center
line connecting the two lenses of the encoder.
Gap (G): The distance from the top of the package to the
surface of the re ective codewheel or codestrip.
Specular Re ectance (Rf ): a measure of a surface’s re ec-
tive  nish. This is quanti ed by the amount of light re-
ected when hit with an incident beam. A device called a
scatterometer is used to quantify specular re ectance on
a percent scale. (Contact factory for more information.)
Radial and Tangential Misalignment Error (ER, ET): For
rotary motion, mechanical misalignment in the radial
and tangential directions relative to the codewheel.
Angular Misalignment Error (EA): angular misalignment
of the sensor in relation to the tangential direction. This
applies for both rotary and linear motion.

Current Limiting Resistor for LED
A resistor to limit current to the LED is required. The
recom mended value is 220 Ω (±10%) and should be

device (V

mately 15 mA.
