US Digital Releases New EC35 Optical Commutation Encoder
US Digital introduces the EC35, a high performance 35mm commutation kit encoder ideal for BLDC motors. The EC35 is high resolution, has more accurate timing than Hall effect sensors, and provides simple assembly for OEM applications.
The EC35 features include:
- A/B/Z Differential Outputs
- Frequency Response from DC to 400 kHz
- 500 - 10000 Cycles Per Revolution (CPR)
- 2000 - 40,000 quadrature states per revolution
- U/V/W commutation outputs (differential or open-collector)
- Fits shaft diameters from 0.197" (5mm) - 0.394" (10mm)
The EC35 is ideal for high volume, low cost, OEM motion control applications. "The EC35 encoder is being introduced into the BLDC motor motion control market to fill customer's needs for a cost competitive, simple to assemble, high performance commutation encoder that has the virtue of being manufactured in a vertically integrated, US encoder factory. This vertical integration enables the EC35 to be an extremely reliable product for supply chain management," states Jim Stevens, VP of Sales & Marketing.
Like US Digital's current encoder offerings, the EC35 will feature quick delivery, high reliability and competitive pricing. US Digital manufactures precision motion control products, including incremental and absolute encoders, inclinometers, interfaces, drives and more.

Modbus allows the T7 to communicate by means of an industry standard protocol to most PLC's offered on the market. The addition of two new T7 communication protocols, along with the existing RS232 and CAN communication, makes the T7 the most easily applied inclinometer on the market. For more information on the inclinometer, visit www.usdigital.com/t7.
T7 Product Features:
- Full 360 degree range, single axis
- ±0.1° relative accuracy from 0C to 70C, 0.01° resolution
- Modbus (RS485 or RS232) option
- RS485 versions support up to 1000 ft. cable length
- Multiple unit networking
- IP-67 rated
T7 pricing starts at $225.00 for single units and $205.00 for 10 units. US Digital products are sold direct for easy ordering and fast shipment.
