Product Information

Mercury TM 1200 PCB-Mount Analog Encoders For Customer Interpolation- Resolution to 0.078μm Reflective Linear and Rotary Encoders Resolution Sensor the size of a Dime Determined by Customer Electronics Linear: 20μm to 0.078μm Rotary: 2,500 to 4.2M CPR Accuracy Linear: ± 1μm available ± 3μm to ± 5μm standard Rotary: Up to ± 2.1 arc-sec Output Analog Sine/Cosine and Index Window System Resolution The Mercury 1200 encoder is an analog output system. Designed for PC board mounting, it is available with linear or rotary scales. Mercury’s space-saving, integrated configuration gives OEM system designers a breakthrough in performance. Imagine what you can do with this! OEMs can now use encoders for closed loop control where it was previously not possible or cost effective. Using your interpolation electronics, engineers can achieve dramatic improvements in system speed, throughput, and reliability, while reducing cost, size and weight. The Mercury 1200 series kit encoders make it all possible. The analog output sensors can mount directly on your printed circuit board within an EMI shielded module. The low Z height of the sensor, only 5.6mm, opens up exciting design possibilities. OEMs that want to incorporate our interpolation electronics can contact MicroE for chip set or daughterboard solutions. www.DataSheet4U.com Table of Contents System & Sensor pg . 2 Scales pg . 4 - 5 Ordering Information pg. 5 Optional features Standard Features • Glass scale length or diameter: Linear lengths from 5mm to 2m Rotary diameters from 12mm to 108mm • Small PCB mount sensor • Sensor is 5.6mm (H) x 11.9mm (W) x 14.9mm (L) and weighs 1.2g • Fundamental resolution: Linear 20µm; Rotary 2,500 - 16,384 CPR Interpolated linear resolution up to 0.078µm; Rotary resolution 2,500 CPR to 4.2M CPR • Analog output: sine/cosine and Index window • Bi-directional Index window signal • Index mark at the center or end of the glass scale (linear) Broader Alignment Tolerances, Increased Standoff Clearance, Smallest Sensor and More Why Mercury Encoders Make It Easier To Design High Performance Into Your Equipment Eliminate the Frustration of Touchy Encoder Alignment Mercury Solves this Problem for Good Fussy alignment is no longer a concern. With Mercury’s patented PurePrecision™ optics, advanced SmartPrecision™ electronics and LED alignment indicators, you can push the sensor against your reference surface, tighten the screws and you’re finished. Try that with brand X or Y. This performance is possible thanks to relaxed alignment tolerances, particularly in the theta Z axis. Mercury offers a ± 2° sweet spot– that’s a 300% improvement over the best competitive encoder. And that will result in dramatic savings in manufacturing costs. No other commercially available encoder is easier to align, easier to use, or easier to integrate into your designs.

This reduction can also cut total system weight and cost by allowing the use of smaller motors and stages. Safe system operation is also enhanced thanks to Mercury’s generous standoff clearance– 200% greater than other encoders. And it’s standoff tolerance is 50% greater than the best alternative. Thi...
