## Function

Incremental optical rotary encoder that converts rotational motion into electronic quadrature signals for position and velocity feedback. It uses an infrared light source and photodetectors to scan a slotted code disk, providing two phase channels (A and B) with optional index (Z) for reference positioning. Delivers high resolution of 512 counts per revolution, enabling precise servo and motor-control feedback at high rotational speeds with low jitter and good noise immunity.
