Re: How much PPR do you use on your encoders?


A cycle is one repeating pattern. It's a good way to define an encoder because it's independent of how you plan to use (decode) the signal.

The space between the red lines is one cycle.

One cycle can be 1 count (if you are counting only rising edges on one channel); or 2 counts (if you are counting only rising edges on 2 channels); or 4 counts (if you are counting rising and falling edges on 2 channels).
