Rotary encoders are typicallyused in positioning systems withservo feedback in which the cost of theencoder usually is of minor importance.Encoders, however, are also usedin user interfaces to encode ...

Rotary encoders connect to a shaft and, as the shaft rotates, the encoder outputs pulses. These are used to determine the speed of the object. By counting the amount of pulses per one full turn of the ...

Rotary encoders track motor shaft movement for myriad pieces of industrial equipment and commercial devices. For industrial applications, incremental encoders (used when only relative position is ...

There’s no denying that the reach and variety of internet radio is super cool. The problem is that none of the available interfaces really give the enormity of the thing the justice it deserves. We ...

As the demand for functionally safe equipment products grows, so does Heidenhain’s component product offerings. As the demand for functionally safe equipment products grows, so does Heidenhain’s ...

[hw640] has put together a well written and detail packed explanation of how to interface with a digital rotary switch. These digital opto encoders have just two outputs with four possible logic ...
