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 PST-360 rotary, through-hole position sensor combines a through-shaft design with 360º absolute position feedback in an extremely thin package. It incorporates a proprietary ring magnet with a ...

Avago Technologies has announced a series of compact non-contact magnetic encoders for use in industrial applications that operate in harsh conditions. Avago's AEAT-60xx series of magnetic encoders ...

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 ...

Rotary encoders connect to a shaft and, as the shaft rotates, the encoder outputs pulses. These are used to determine the speed of the object. By counting the amount of pulses per one full turn of the ...
