Abstract
An incremental digital converter for converting two phase displaced signals of a pulse generator, which signals represent the position and direction of an object moved in two opposite directions, to a parameter which represents the position digitally. The converter includes a reversible position counter and a signal generator which derives from the phase displaced signals a direction signal for determining the counting direction of the counter and timing pulses to be counted by the counter.
