Abstract: There is provided an optical encoder including an encoding medium, multiple photodiodes and a signal processing circuit. The encoding medium includes an index track. The index track includes a first index pattern and a second index pattern. The multiple photodiodes include a first index photodiode, a second index photodiode and a reference index photodiode for receiving modulated light from the first index pattern and the second index pattern. When the first index photodiode is aligned with the first index pattern and the second index photodiode is aligned with the second index pattern, the signal processing circuit outputs a triggering signal.

Abstract: There is provided an optical encoding system including a photodiode array and a code disk opposite to each other. The photodiode array includes a detection photodiode group and a calibration photodiode group. If there is a position deviation between the photodiode array and the code disk, whether to utilize detection signals of the calibration photodiode group is determined according to phase shifts between detection signals outputted by the detection photodiode group so as to eliminate the phase shifts.

Abstract: An optical mouse operated with respect to an illuminated surface outside the optical mouse is provided. The optical mouse includes a light source configured to emit a light beam, and a light pipe including a first optical element and a second optical element. The light beam enters the light pipe through the first optical element, and then propagates in the light pipe from the first optical element to the second optical element without reflection, and then leaves the light pipe through the second optical element, and then illuminates the illuminated surface. The light pipe does not have any protrusion extending therefrom and attached to a front surface of the light source.
