TT Electronics announced the launch of FlexSense, a revolutionary technology designed to improve optical encoder applications. FlexSense series products include FS210 transmissive incremental encoder and FS310 reflective incremental encoder sensor. FlexSense encoder sensor array can greatly reduce the design complexity of optical encoder solutions, which also highlights TT Electronics' deep engineering expertise.

     "Low cost control electronic products are on the rise. At the same time, the demand for customized high-end optical encoder sensors is also growing. We see opportunities to solve these two growth problems," said Walter Brooks, manager of TT Electronics' optoelectronic business global product line. "Therefore, the FlexSense product was born: a flexible solution that can be quickly configured to meet the design requirements of optical encoder, including higher resolution, faster response, smaller volume and higher intelligence. With the FlexSense product, TT Electronics customers can shorten the time to market, reduce the complexity of the solution, and improve production, no matter now or in the future Quantity. "

     The FlexseneTM sensor integrates several key functions, including auto alignment, closed-loop LED drivers, on-chip diagnostics, and the most advanced 8x interpolator. In addition, the fully programmable array and single chip system (SOC) can provide a universal solution, which can be applied to a variety of encoding disk diameters, pulses per revolution and a variety of LEDs on the market, including the OP207CL encoder LED of TT Electronics. If the encoder's code disk changes at a later stage, FlexseneTM can be reprogrammed to meet the changing needs, thus improving the added value of the sensor to meet future design requirements, and eliminating the cost of purchasing different sensors.
