DESCRIPTION The HOA0902 assembly consists of a dual channel IC detector and an IRED encased in a black thermoplastic housing. The device is typically used with an interrupter strip or disk (code wheel) to encode the rate and direction of mechanical motion. Applications include linear and rotary encoders; it is especially suited for the encoding function in an optical mouse.

The detector is a monolithic IC which consists of two narrow adjacent photodiodes, amplifiers stages and quadrature logic circuitry which provides two outputs; (1) a fixed-duration, low level active tachometer (counting) pulse which is generated whenever the illumination level passes through the sensing threshold, and (2) a direction output which is set to a logic high or low level dependent on which of the two channels is illuminated first. The tachometer output is an
NPN collector which is internally connected to VÙÙ through a 10 kì (nominal) resistor; the direction output is a totempole configuration. Both outputs are capable of directly driving TTL loads. The IC design incorporates circuitry to compensate the sensitivity for the output power...
