Absolute Optical Inclinometer
A2T
The A2T is a single axis, digital gravity angle sensor. The A2T serves as a full 360 range absolute tilt sensing programmable level with either digital or analog output. Internally, a rotary bar coded disk is mounted to a weighted gravity driven wheel. A micro-controller strobes an LED to transfer the bar code image onto an optical linear array, then decodes the position every 2 mSec. Magnetic damping provides fast response and settling time while virtually eliminating overshoot and oscillations. An internal EEPROM stores field programmable parameters such as resolution, zero position, direction swap, and mode. This second generation design virtually eliminates the primary accuracy limitation of first generation inclinometers, which is sitation (hysteresis).

Transmissive Optical Encoder Module
EM1
The EM1 is a transmissive optical encoder module designed to be an improved replacement for the Avago HEDS-9000 series encoder module. This module is designed to detect rotary or linear position when used together with a code wheel or linear strip. The EM1 consists of a lensed LED source and a monolithic detector IC enclosed in a small polymer package. The EM1 uses phased array detector technology to provide superior performance and greater tolerances over traditional aperture mask type encoders.
