ELM403
Rotary Decoder - 2 wire 4x Interface
Description
The ELM403 is an 8 pin integrated circuit that is
used to convert the signals from a rotary encoder
into a series of up and down output pulses. The low
power CMOS technology used ensures that only a
very small current is required over the entire 2.0 to
5.5 volt operating range.
There is no need for external filtering or
debounce circuits with the ELM403, as this is all
performed within the integrated circuit. After
debouncing the encoder signals, the ELM403 then
determines the direction of shaft rotation, and
generates the appropriate pulses at the Up or Down
output pins. The duration of these pulses can be
selected for either 0.2 or 2.0 msec.
The ELM403 provides 4x decoding of a rotary
encoder signal. If your application requires 2x
decoding, please see the ELM402 (it is identical to
the ELM403 in every respect, except that it provides
2x decoding).
