Leine & Linde’s 800 rotary encoder series now includes an integrated over-speed capability with programmable switching speeds. In many industrial applications like wind turbines, steel plants or ...

Encoder specialist POSITAL has announced a new generation of analog rotary encoders for position control. Compared to the company’s earlier analog encoders, these new models feature improved accuracy, ...

The AS5040 is a 10-bit, 360⁰ programmable magnetic rotary encoder featuring contactless high resolution rotational position and three incremental output modes. It has push-button functionality and ...

The ZI-58 Series incremental rotary encoder features an output of 5 to 32,768 pulses. It can be programmed to any value and mechanical zero pulse position required ...

Rotary quadrature encoders often are used to command digital potentiometers or digital controllers, and quadrature decoding is typically performed in a programmable device (like an FPGA or ...

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 ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...

If you would like to add programmable controls via touchscreen and rotary dials to your existing project or next home automation system the M5Dial might be worth more investigation. Its interactive ...

I want to write about something a little different this time. I removed the mechanical scroll wheel rotary encoder from a discarded optical mouse and used it in a little project. I really liked the ...
