Engineers using an incremental encoder for the first time often have a misunderstanding about what types of signals are provided by an encoder and how to interface an encoder to their application.

This application note describes the Quadrature Encoder peripheral on the Z32F128 device and provides two examples of peripheral usage. The quadrature encoder decodes the signals received from an ...

The FOT variants of the KCI 1300 inductive encoders from Heidenhain can also serve as a bearing cover. A growing trend in encoder technology is the integration of additional sensors to add diagnostic ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Rotary encoders track motor shaft movement for myriad pieces of industrial equipment and commercial devices. For ...

Rotary and linear optical encoders are common in position and motion sensing. Here, a disc or plate containing opaque and transparent segments passes between an LED and detector to interrupt a light ...

Computers are great at automating repetitive tasks, right? But many of us encoding professionals spend a great deal of time repeating the same actions again and again. We point-and-click to set the ...
