Results
- Counted edge rate
- 102,400 edges/s
Confirm whether the encoder specification means pulses or already-decoded counts. This does not select a counter or verify its electrical input.
Formula & guidance
edges/s = RPM × pulses/rev × multiplier ÷ 60
Confirm whether the encoder specification means pulses or already-decoded counts. This does not select a counter or verify its electrical input.
Change the example inputs and check each field’s units. Use equipment datasheets and applicable project standards for final decisions. Results do not establish Canadian electrical-code compliance or certify a design.
