    Introduction Historically , the method of choice for many optical position feedback systems has been A quad B (Quadrature) output. The limitation of this method is output speed, especially when the interpolation level is high. When the optical sensor speed and/or the interpolation multiplier is set high, the Quadrature output frequencies will be ex ...
