ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus to process an analog encoder signal. The apparatus includes an analog encoder pattern generating unit, an analog encoder pattern storage unit, a digital/analog converting unit, a comparing unit, a recent state latch unit, a present state determining unit, and a gray code converting unit. The method includes generating an analog encoder pattern by sampling and quantizing a quasi-sinusoidal wave signal output from an analog encoder during initialization; determining a recent state and a present estimated state by comparing the analog encoder pattern with the quasi-sinusoidal wave signal; and generating quadrature signals from the recent state and the present estimated state.
