SIN/COS Encoder converter - Interpolator

Overview

NL-NQ6D is an advanced interpolator for all kind of encoders with SIN/COS 1Vpp. This device with DIN rail mounting converts the SIN/COS 1Vpp analog signal into Quadrature Digital output AB with TTL 5V level output. Furthermore, it can also convert the SIN/COS 1Vpp analog signal into digital output BiSS-C or SSI. This is necessary when the servo-drive is not able to use directly the SIN/COS signal as feedback.

Power supply

Using programming cable

When the programming calbe is used the power supply for Interpolator and the connected SIN/COS encoder can be provided
by USB (in this case check is the current will be enought for the correct ioperation) or with external 5V power supply connected
on the power X1.

Using Servo Drive

Connecting a servo drive BiSS interface, the 5V power can be porvided by the feedback port of the servo drive or
using external 5V power supply connected on port X1.
