← TechnologyWhich risk increases significantly when an incremental encoder in a robotic servo system experiences quadrature error?
A)Cumulative positional inaccuracies are amplified✓
B)Bode plot phase margin decreases rapidly
C)Electromagnetic interference surpasses standards
D)Thermal runaway becomes virtually unavoidable
💡 Explanation
Quadrature error in an incremental encoder creates unequal pulse widths or phase shifts, causing misinterpretation of position because these errors accumulate during each rotation, therefore positional inaccuracies will be amplifies significantly, rather than causing instability in servo control.
