The SMAC SLE-35 high resolution linear encoder is similar in mounting to other industry standard enclosed linear encoders. This model is a miniature non-contacting high-resolution incremental linear encoder, which delivers two count channels in quadrature (called A and B) as output signals. The two output waveforms are 90 degrees out of phase and indicate both the position and the movement direction: when Channel A leads Channel B, for example, then the movement is from left to right of the scale when viewing the pattern side of the scale. Otherwise, if B leads A, then the displacement is in the opposite direction. This encoder is available in 0.1and 0.05 micron resolution.
