A rotary encoder is an electro-mechanical device for converting the angular position of a shaft or axle to a digital code. For many applications and equipment that need to track object location, ...

Encoder technologies abound, but software, wiring, and embedded microprocessors let designers tailor magnetic-encoder performance to application requirements.

Rotary encoder decode for Arduino It is amazing how many Arduino programmes for decoding rotary encoders start with something like: “I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of ...

A rotary encoder is a wonderful digital alternative to the old analog potentiometers. Rotary encoders are useful as rotation sensors (or selectors) and look similar to potentiometers, but rotate all ...

The keyboard and mouse are great, we’re big fans. But for some tasks, such as seeking around in audio and video files, a rotary encoder is a more intuitive way to get the job done. [VincentMakes ...

Rotary quadrature encoders often are used to command digital potentiometers or digital controllers, and quadrature decoding is typically performed in a programmable device (like ...

Electronic enthusiasts, hobbyists and engineers looking for an open source rotary encoder complete with a circular 1.2 inch programmable TFT circular display may be interested in the Roendi.

In devices which use rotary knobs, the AS5601 and its paired magnet may replace a rotary encoder without any change to the host microcontroller or its application software.

Austriamicrosystems' AS5163 magnetic rotary encoder IC targets automotive applications led by its 27-V overvoltage protection and -18-V reverse-polarity protection.

HEIDENHAIN’s RENCO brand of encoders are well suited and available for use within a variety of mobile robot applications. Specifically, the modular RENCO R35i and RCML15 rotary encoders have proven ...
