LSI Computer Systems (LSI/CSI) has created a family of 63 tap (6bit) digital potentiometers for direct connection to quadrature decoders, push buttons, GPIOs or SPI serial controls. Debounce circuits ...

I was thinking about using a hexadecimal control switch and ended up pondering what alternatives exist. For example, how about a quadrature encoder and an up-down counter. There appear to be a couple ...

The LS7366R IC performs decoding and counting of quadrature clocks directly from incremental encoders. It’s a dedicated solution to position and displacement tracking at 40 x 106/sec. line rate (at 5 ...

Precisely tracking speed, acceleration, and position of a motor's rotor is an essential requirement for many motor control applications found in everyday equipment such as fax machines, elevators, and ...

A quadrature encoder provides a way to let hardware read movement (and direction) of a shaft, and they can be simple, effective, and inexpensive devices. But [Paulo Marques] observed that when it ...

As wireless technology evolves, manufacturers face the challenge of redesigning products to support the latest connectivity ...

Encoders are widely used in the motion control and automation industry to monitor the position and speed of motors. This information can be used by the motion control electronics to detect if the ...

As you may have noticed, I’ve been working with an STM32 ARM CPU using Mbed. There was a time when Mbed was pretty simple, but a lot has changed since it has morphed into Mbed OS. Unfortunately, that ...

Microchip Technology has released the PIC32-BZ6 MCU, a single-chip wireless platform that supports Bluetooth Low Energy, Thread, Matter, and proprietary protocols. The device consolidates ...

UNTERPREMSTAETTEN, Austria--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The new AS5601 contactless rotary position sensor from ams AG (SIX: AMS), a leading provider of high performance analog ICs and sensors, gives designers an ...
