What is the difference between a S-PCM receiver and a Z-PCM?

TIA

Zpcm = 512 bits
Spcm = 1024 bits

Spcm is the better/newer of the two

Thanks guys

Does that mean the SPCM use a higher sampling rate?

Sorry still learning.

What it means is that S-PCM is more precise (2X) than Z-PCM in that there are 1024 bits used to represent position (as opposed to 512).

I fly Z-PCM because my old PCM10z doesn't support the new 'S' modulation. It's plenty precise enough for me as long as I put the extra effort into ensuring mechanical linkages permit full servo throw...

As for the sampling rate for encoding, my electronics training would have me say yes but, I haven't seen the schematics and I've been in software too long to be current.

No. Both offer an effective frame rate of about 21mS. This is achieved with data interlacing and block size trickery.
