6.3 Single Cycle Data SCD
SCD structure is different according to the resolution of the AMx36 model
encoders.
6.3.1 SCD structure
SCD data has a variable length according to the resolution of the encoder. It is
7 bit long where “nbitres” is the resolution of the encoder expressed in
bits. It consists of the following elements: position value (
), 1 error bit
nE (
) and a 6-bit CRC Cyclic Redundancy
Check (
).

function
Position
(Nbitres)
It is the process data transmitted from the Slave to the Master. It has a variable
length, it is as long as the resolution of the encoder expressed in bits.
It provides information about the current position of the encoder.
The transmission starts with msb (most significant bit) and ends with lsb (least
significant bit). “Nbitres” is the resolution of the encoder expressed in bits.

“Nbitres” is the resolution of the encoder expressed in bits. It can be 28 or 31
bits as shown in the following table.

Error
(1 bit)
Not used (nE = “1”). It is 1-bit long.
Warning
(1 bit)
Not used (nW = “1”). It is 1-bit long.
