6. AB incremental output signals 

Order code:

 SSII and BISS 

In addition to the absolute position information, MXS2 sensors can provide AB incremental signals through 
the NPN open collector output circuit. They r5 VDC ±5% power supply with I

out

 = 40 mA max. Thermal 

and short-circuit protections are not provided. 

Please note that the  WBA2 magnetic tape  is fitted with two tracks:  an absolute track on one side and an 
incremental track on the other side. Thus, you must strictly comply with the mounting direction! For complete 
information refer to section 

2. Mounting instructions

 and to section 

3. Electrical connection

In the following table the main features of the incremental measuring system are listed for each order code 
(see 

data sheet

). They concern the resolution (i.e. the distance  between  two following edges of A and B 

channels),  the minimum edge distance  (i.e. the minimum spacing between two following signal edges at 
output), the maximum counting frequency and the maximum travel speed.

Counting direction 

 

Please note that the incremental signals and their relationship with the pole  pitch are represented 
schematically in the Figure above. In the example the interpolation factor 4 is used. The real interpolation factor 
results from the size (expressed in μm) of the pole pitch divided by the resolution of the specific sensor. 

 Example:  

MXS2-SSII-50-... 

 

 

Resolution = 50 µm 

 

 

Pole pitch size = 2000 µm 

Interpolation factor 

Thus, in the case of the MXS2-SSII-50-… sensor, the system will provide 40 AB pulses per each pole. 

NOTE:

 Please note that the 

Counting direction

 parameter available in the BiSS-C interface (see on 

page 17

affects the absolute position information, not the AB incremental signals.
