Phased array sensors (PAS) for optical encoders are common in standard encoder in order to avoid reticles to match the code disk. Array of photodiodes are organised to recognize the disk ticks and make A and B channels. More information on Micropto web site. Typically phased array sensor (PAS) are monolithic silicon microchips with electronics to amplify the low signals from the photodiodes. Dimension of array on PAS is the limit of the resolution disk, each disk need a specific PAS pitch. Optical encoders adopt PAS or other sensors (phototransistors arrays, monolithics, ASIC, ...) to recognize the position and the speed of the motors in motion control.

Why radar using the phased array?

A Phased array of antennas in which the relative phases of the respective signals feeding the antennas are varied in such a way that the effective radiation pattern of the array is reinforced in a desired direction and suppressed in undesired directions. This is particularly useful in a 3D plane where the object changes co-ordinates, in different directions.

What is the difference between time of flight diffraction and phased array?

I am giving you an Answer but still not sure if this is right ! Phased array system: Phased array system consists of many elements which are pulsed sequentially at different time intervals and hence this avoiding the usage of different angle Probes.In Phased array system the the 64 channels are integrated in a single casing hence only one probe is used. In TOFD system is mainly designed to overcome the difficulties and complications faced in the Radiographic testing.In TOFD system there are different channels with a separate Transmitter and Receiver.The number of channels is directly Propotional to the thickness and hence more the number of channels,more thickness the waves can travel.
