Digital Gauge FAQ
The signal output circuit of the GS and the BS series Linear Gauge Sensors are as follows.
Signal output
The sensor outputs with the 2-phase pulse signal. The distance of 1 pulse is shown in the following diagram. If you want to read the signal directly with connecting the display unit other than our product, you need to use the multiplication circuit and convert the unit of the sensor into 10 µm or 1 µm. Please pay attention to the noise.
| The minimum display unit for GS and BS sensor | The distance of 1 pulse |
|---|---|
| For the sensor of the unit of 10 µm | 40 µm |
| For the sensor of the unit of 1 µm | 4 µm |
| GS-7000 series | 2 µm |
| GS-3800 series | 0.4 µm |
