Abstract

See full text

An incremental rotary encoder outputs two sine wave signals having a phase difference of 90 degrees when the incremental rotary encoder is in operation, the incremental rotary encoder including a binary coding circuit which codes each of the two sine wave signals into a binary signal, a voltage detector which detects the voltage of one of the two sine wave signals at the moment of variation in a signal level of the binary signal, and a controller which includes a calculator which takes an even number of voltage values from each of the two sine wave signals to take an average of the even number of voltage values for each of the two sine wave signals.
