The AS5304 and AS5306 ICs feature austriamicrosystems’ new line of magnetic encoders for linear and off axis motion sensing applications. The devices provide an easy-to-use, start & play solution for ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

Rotational magnetic encoders have been developed that convert mechanical rotary motion into a digital pulse stream. The encoders use newly available solid-state magnetic rotary encoding technology, ...

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...

Rotary encoders are electromechanical devices used for sensing in myriad applications—on motors paired with drives and automated machinery for everything from consumer electronics, elevators, and ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In the seemingly endless quest for higher motor performance and improved system cost efficiencies, motor manufacturers ...

When it comes to rotary encoders, there are plenty of options. Most of them involve putting a credit card number into an online vendor’s website, though, and that’s sometimes just not in the cards. In ...
