An ultra-precision spatial separation heterodyne littrow grating encoder displacement measurement system was proposed to meet the requirements of an ultra-precision position measurement of dual workpiece table of immersion lithography machine. This study mainly includes the principle and scheme design of the measurement system, the design and manufacture of each component of the system, the measurement principle derivation of the encoder, and the test verification. The subdivision rate of the phase card of the displacement measurement system of the designed planar grating encoder was 4 096, and the measurement resolution was
x
50 pm/
z
25 pm. The experimental results showed that the planar grating displacement measurement system can measure the
x
and
z
direction displacement simultaneously, and the
z
direction motion stroke was ±1 mm, which met the vertical focusing requirements of the dual workpiece of the lithography machine. When the limit rotation angle of
R

uniaxial rotation or triaxial combined rotation was ± 1.5 mrad, the AC signal quality still met the measurement requirements. Moreover, it met the requirements of
