Position Feedback Input: Quadrature Encoder
Two control lines are internally congured to read a quadrature type position encoder. e encoder
is typically powered from the 5 V supply (pin 26) or 12 V supply (pin 25), but can be powered from
any external supply (from 5 V up to B+) as long as the logic threshold requirements are met. e
quadrature encoder is used in ACIM applications.

Phase Shift 90° ±30, Duty Cycle 50% ±10%; no signal edge can be closer than 10 µs to an adjacent edge.
ese signal tolerances must be maintained throughout the application’s operating conditions,
including voltage, temperature, speed and torque ranges.
