Description
The CE100+ is a single-turn absolute magnetic rotary encoder designed for angular position, rotation and speed measurement applications.
It uses a 32-bit microcontroller together with a 15-bit magnetic encoder and provides both RS485 and TTL communication interfaces. The encoder supports a custom communication protocol and Modbus RTU.
The CE100+ operates from a 4.5–12V DC power supply and features a compact 24 × 24 mm PCB. Encoder parameters including device address, communication baud rate and rotation direction can be configured through the host software or custom protocol.
For proper magnetic sensing performance, the encoder PCB, magnetic encoder chip and matching diametrical magnet should be installed on the same axis.
