ABSTRACT:
A photoelectric encoder includes an optical receipt chip on which the light acceptance surfaces of a plurality of photodiodes are disposed two-dimensionally. Four optical signals different in phase from one another (i.e., light signals with phase “A,” phase “B,” phase “AA,” and phase “BB”) are guided to fall onto the light acceptance surfaces. The shape of each light acceptance surface is a regular hexagon.
