Quadrupling of signals
The information about rotational direction is lost as a result of linking both
channels A and B.

Interfaces
Line driver (RS422)
This symmetrical interface is recommended for use whenever a longer
cable length is required. The corresponding core pairs must be twisted for
maximum interference resistance.
This interface can also be used as a replacement for the TTL interface. In
this case, the inverted outputs are not used.

Push-pull output
The push-pull output is a combination of NPN and PNP outputs. Compared
to open collector outputs, the push-pull output features an improved square
wave. In addition, interference resistance is improved. No external wiring is
required as in NPN or PNP outputs. Push-pull also offers inverted channels.
The main applications of push-pull are within the range of median switching
frequencies. The open collector outputs can be replaced by push-pull by
using only the non-inverted outputs.
