iC-LNG derives the position data from an analog sine/cosine track and 10 or 11 Gray-coded digital tracks. Using the integrated 6-bit flash interpolator absolute position data of up to 16 bits can be generated in real time. Output is through an SPI interface, a fast shift register, or a 14-bit parallel interface.
iC-LNG also has incremental encoder quadrature signals with an index and conditioned sine/cosine signals from the analog track at its disposal. The number of pulses for the quadrature signals can be varied.
