I wrote a bit of VHDL for generating inc/dec pulses from quadrature rotary encoders like the CTS Electrocomponents ones I bought from Digikey for a project I worked on recently. This debounce circuit ...

A high-speed quadrature encoder module provides simultaneous input and decoding for up to eight incremental quadrature encoders at resolutions of 16, 32, or 48 bits. The USB-QUAD08 data acquisition ...

The sensing mechanism in an incremental optical rotary encoder consists primarily of a light source, code wheel, and optical detector. As the code wheel turns, a ring of alternating opaque and ...

Reading quadrature encoder signals at high speeds (e.g., 1MHz, or, 1m/s with a resolution of 1µm) often requires dedicated hardware. This Design Idea shows a simple scheme to accomplish this function ...

Encoders are widely used to help control machine position and speed. Typical encoder output, a series of quadrature signals, consists of two full square waves, offset by 90° in phase. The number of ...

The new SC Series from Nanotec Electronic is an out-of-the-box combination of a stepper motor with an optical encoder. The new SC Series from Nanotec Electronic is an out-of-the-box combination of a ...

This encoder has a passive design and runs at temperatures from -60 to 150C, runs farther than copper encoder links by up to 1,000m, is immune to lightning and high-voltage static or plasma fields, ...
