Pcb layout available to add differential encoders

[tecfacet]

Hello all.

I have made available a set of Gerber files for a board to connect differential encoders to the ODrive.

If anyone is interested in testing the design, I would be happy to send then the files.

Thanks,

Roger

Hi Roger.

I am a total noob regarding Odrive and differential receivers or lack of, was one of the first things that I picked up on. Good call!

Hah! I did too xD

Differential (Line Driver) Encoder Adapter Board

Hello everyone, I’ve made a differential encoder adapter board that will plug directly into ODrive. It has a BOM cost of $5.73 each (Digi-Key) + the cost of the board ($1.75 for 3 on OSHPark). MIT Licensed, so feel free to fork it and do whatever you need. It uses the 5V from ODrive and supplies that to the encoder. Supports A, B, and Z differential inputs.
