The IVO encoder has many optical channel tracks. Each track is arranged sequentially with 2 line, 4 line, 8 line, and 16 line. In this way, at each position of the encoder, by reading the light and dark states of each track, a unique 2-ary code (Gray code) is obtained, ranging from the zeroth power of 2 to the n-1th power of 2. This is called an n-bit absolute encoder. Such encoders use an optical code disk for memory. The absolute encoder determines the code based on mechanical position; it requires no memory, no reference point search, and no continuous counting. Whenever the position needs to be known, it can be read directly.
