Overview

Measuring 36 mm (1.42inches) in diameter, these brushed DC gearmotors are the largest and most powerful we carry.  all versions are available with integrated 64 CPR quadrature encoders on the motor shafts. The 12 V motors offer approximately the same performance at their respective nominal voltages. In general, these kinds of motors can run at voltages above and below the nominal voltages; lower voltages might not be practical, and higher voltages could start negatively affecting the life of the motor.The gearboxes are composed mainly of spur gears, but they feature helical gears for the first stage for reduced noise and improved efficiency:Its motor shaft is a 8mm D-shaft.

Using the Encoder

A two-channel Hall effect encoder is used to sense the rotation of a magnetic disk on a rear protrusion of the motor shaft. The quadrature encoder provides a resolution of 64 counts per revolution of the motor shaft when counting both edges of both channels. To compute the counts per revolution of the gearbox output, multiply the gear ratio by 64. The motor/encoder has six color-coded, 8″ (20 cm) leads terminated by a 1×6 female header with a 0.1″ pitch, as shown in the main product picture. This header works with. If this header is not convenient for your application, you can pull the crimped wires out of the header or cut the header off. The following table describes the wire functions:

Color Function
Red motor power (connects to one motor terminal)
Black motor power (connects to the other motor terminal)
Green encoder GND
Blue encoder Vcc (3.5 – 5 V)
Yellow encoder A output
White encoder B output

 

The Hall sensor requires an input voltage Vcc between 3.5 and 20V, with a maximum current of 10 milliamps. The A and B outputs are square waves that are approximately 90° out of phase, with a voltage range of 0V to Vcc. The transition frequency tells you the speed of the motor, while the transition sequence tells you the direction.

The oscilloscope capture shown above displays the A and B (yellow and white) encoder outputs for a 12V motor and a 5V Hall sensor Vcc. By calculating the rising and falling edges of the A and B outputs, 52 counts are obtained for each motor shaft. Using a single edge from only one channel would result in 13 counts per motor shaft, so the frequency of the A output in the above oscilloscope capture is 13 times the rotational frequency of the motor.
