San Jose, Calif. — Avago Technologies has expanded its family of miniature reflective incremental optical encoders with a new high resolution encoder. Touted as the industry's smallest, the ...

AEDR-871x is a series of 3-channel high resolution reflective incremental encoder which has digital output. This application note discusses the features, advantages, and proper placement of AEDR-871x.

Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

It’s easy to treat optical encoders as “black boxes” that need minimal consideration before they are installed to translate rotary motion into position or velocity feedback signals for a motion ...

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 ...

The rotary encoder family from austriamicrosystems has two new members, the AS5030 and the AS5130, which are 8-bit absolute magnetic encoder ICs that feature pushbutton and low-power-mode capabilities ...
