Get the most out of brushless dc motors by specifying optical encoders. They measure finer movements than hall sensors, because their operation doesn't rely on motor phases. Brushless dc (BLDC) motors ...

Aura P is a high-resolution absolute encoder in a super-compact form-factor. Credit INMOCO The Aura P is presented in a connection-ready PCBA (printed circuit board assembly), enabling fast and easy ...

Encoders are the most widely used feedback devices for electric motor control, capable of delivering precise position and speed feedback for closed-loop performance. With numerous technology options ...

iC-RT2624, as it will be known, is aimed at both housed and kit encoders, and will achieve its 26bit resolution using interpolation with standard 26mm code discs, the company claims “even in demanding ...

The iC-PXL3212 from iC-Haus is an optical, reflective, lensless encoder IC with integrated HD phased-array photo sensors and a blue LED chip. For the latest generation of these encoder ICs, the chip ...

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 ...

Renesas Electronics Corporation introduced a new family of magnet-free inductive position sensor (IPS) ICs that can be fully customized for various coil designs compatible with a wide range of ...

This Design Idea utilizes an optical computer mouse's sensor for measuring rotation of a disk which can be mechanically connected to any sort of rotating apparatus. One feature is to allow adjustment ...

Fremont, Calif. — Elma Electronic is offering an all-optical encoder that boasts a rotational life of more than 10 million rotations thanks to no mechanical contacts as well as the use of infrared ...

Everyone has at least one extra mouse laying around; why not get some use out of it? Disassembling the mouse you can get two optical encoders plus four infrared emitter/detector pairs. Then you can ...
