Rotary encoders are great devices. Monitoring just a few pins you can easily and quickly read in rotation and direction of a user input (as well as many other applications). But as with anything, t… ...

A rotary encoder is an electro-mechanical device for converting the angular position of a shaft or axle to a digital code. For many applications and equipment that need to track object location, ...

Editor’s Note: Here’s an ingenious solution to the “fine/coarse” problem one often runs into when using rotary encoders as controls. Who says you have to use a µC to add a touch of intelligence?

That’s definitely a cool idea in case the board fails. It also has two rotary encoders and a pair of toggle switches to switch controller and secondary designations between the PCBs.

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

The SKM 36 SinCos Motor Feedback System is a multi-turn rotary encoder that tracks absolute position over 4,096 turns. The SKM 36 features a minimum number of components to allow miniature and ...

Insights into the use of built-in accelerometers and additional sensors in encoders to enable predictive maintenance and condition monitoring while simplifying installation and cabling. The FOT ...

To Baumer Hübner, "HeavyDuty" is an all-encompassing performance promise. First of all, this means that such a rotary encoder never lets its user down, even under the most difficult conditions ...

In devices which use rotary knobs, the AS5601 and its paired magnet may replace a rotary encoder without any change to the host microcontroller or its application software.
