Description of ChangeGrayhill is changing the sensing technology used in the high-resolution series of encoders from the current optical technology to Hall-effect technology. This includes encoders in the 61K, 61R, 63K, and 63R series.Reason for ChangeThe updated Hall-effect design will improve the quality of the encoders in several ways. While foreign contamination inside the encoder with the current optical sensing technology can result in code output failures, the Hall-effect technology is more robust in regards to contamination. Additionally, the Hall-effect technology performs more consistently at higher rotational speeds. The new design also allows for the elimination of piece parts that have become a supply constraint, improving on-time delivery of encoders.
This Product Advisory Notice is to alert you that Grayhill is changing the optics used in 61K, 61R, 63K and 63R Series High Resolution Optical Encoders.Description of Change:61K, 61R, 63K and 63R Series High Resolution Optical Encoders optics are changing from the wire bonded ETIC ET6501B P/W/Q phototransistor and III-V TCD850 LED due to the fact that the ETIC components have gone obsolete. The optics used in these encoders will be replaced by the surface mounted Kingbright APH1608-LM33 phototransistor and Kingbright APH1608-LM32 LED. Other component changes in the design include the addition of a Fairchild NC7WZ17P6X buffer among other internal resistor and capacitor changes. The buffer was added due to replace the internal buffer that was integrated into the obsoleted ETIC phototransistor.Reason for Change:Obsolesce mitigation due to end of life semiconductor used in encoder design.
