DL-25 Data Sheet , V 1.0f ,MAR. 2013 
DL-25 
Absolute position, rotary Electric Encoder™ 
The DL-25 is a member of the DL series of Electric Encoders, based on 
Netzer Precision proprietary technology. These encoders offer many 
advantages, some unparalleled: 
• IP-65 
• High precision. 
• High tolerance to temperature, shock, moisture, EMI, RFI and magnetic fields. 
• Digital SSi output. 
The DL-25 is suited to demanding application such as: aerospace, medical, 
instrumentation, automation, etc.

Digital - SSi Interface (absolute position) 
DL-25 
Sold & Serviced By: 
Synchronous Serial Interface (SSi) allows for serial transmission of 
absolute position data from the Electric Encoder™ responding to 
controller clock pulses. The Encoder and controller are linked by 
clock and data differential signal lines. 
n = total number of data bits. 
T = clock period (sec) - user defined. 
1/T = clock frequency 0.5 ÷ 2.5 MHz (user defined). 
t1 = minimum time required for the encoder to freeze data 
and preset the shift registers before receiving the first 
rising edge to prompt the MSB 
t2 = data transmission delay (increases with cable length) 
t3 = required delay to refresh position data between 
subsequent position reads.
