These IXARC magnetic encoders withstand harsh environments and are modular for maximum versatility. Rotary encoders measure the rotation of machine shafts and report the results to electronic controls ...

• The new mantra of position encoding is low-current drain. • Capacitive encoding is a way to realize low-power consumption without giving up resolution or accuracy, even at relatively low speeds.

This article is part of the Ideas for Design Series: Vol. 3, No. 8. In many applications, accurately sensing the position of an electrically controlled mechanical device such as a motor is critical.

Position encoders are sensors that, when used in industrial settings, produce critical motor information such as speed and position. The encoder delivers data for display or data that may serve as ...

A MAG-G magnetic encoder with a split pulse wheel and scanning head. The new MAG(-G) 50-1200 magnetic encoders from Johannes Huebner GmbH can be installed without bearings or housings, and the system ...

Absolute encoders using optical technology often face limitations in resolution and size. For example, to achieve a higher resolution of up to 16-bits, the absolute encoder has to be combined with an ...

The LS7082N1, LS7083N, LS7084N, LS7183N and LS7184N quadrature clock converters interface incremental encoders to counting devices by converting outputs into up/down clocks or clock and direction ...
