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

Figure 1 The rotary encoder controls a staircase waveform with precisely defined steps The outputs of an incremental encoder typically consist of two signals in quadrature (i.e., phase-shifted by a ...

Hirschmann's new gSENS DWG 20 rotary encoder uses optical sensors to break down one revolution of a shaft, of a hoist or slew drive unit, for example, into 8192 increments.

Lika's SMA3 bearingless absolute encoder can be installed in rotary and linear applications.
