A Miniature Surface Mount Reflective
Optical Shaft Encoder
The HEDR-8000 Series encoders provide two-channel
medium-resolution encoding performance in a very small SO-8
plastic package. Their small size, reflective operation, and low cost
enable customers to design them into applications that were
impossible for earlier encoders, such as feedback sensing for the
miniature motors used in copiers, cameras, vending machines, and
card readers.

Imagine a position servo sensor so small that it can fit almost anywhere. Put it in a surface mount package and give it a price
comparable to slot encoders that have much lower resolution. Such a sensor became reality with the introduction of the HP
HEDR-8000 Series reflective optical surface mount encoders (Fig. 1).

The HEDR-8000 Series encoders deliver HP reflective optical encoder technology in a surface mount package. They provide
two-channel medium-resolution (75 and 150 lines per inch) encoding performance in a very small SO-8 (small outline 8-pin)
clear plastic package. The reflective technology of the HEDR-8000 Series encoders is inherently different from other HP
encoder modules, which use transmissive technology with light passing through a codewheel or codestrip. In the HEDR-8000
Series encoders, light reflects off the codewheel or codestrip.
HP’s shaft encoders (sensors that measure the position of a rotating motor shaft) have always been based on optoelectronics,
thus providing noncontact measurement and far greater reliability than contact potentiometers. The first HP encoders were
the HEDS-5000/6000 complete encoder packages, introduced in 1979. In 1987 HP introduced the low-cost HEDS-9100
encoder module, a small optoelectronic package that must be combined with a coded wheel or strip to function as a position
sensor. A powerful feature of this e
