The core function of an encoder is to provide feedback to a controller on the position of moving parts in a machine or electromechanical system. “Encoders close the feedback loop and tell you exactly ...

Optical rotary encoders, sensors used everyday in industrial applications, provide instantaneous and continuous data on rotational motion. Designed to monitor speed, position, distance, and direction ...

Tokyo, Japan — Alps Electric Co., Ltd. has developed a rotary-type power switch that combines power and mode selection (encoder) functions in a single package for the appliance market. The primary ...

The minimum lifetime is 30,000 cycles for the encoder function and 20,000 cycles for the switch function, the operating temperature range is from -40° up to 85°C. The new LED illuminated Encoders from ...

Off-loading this function to a dedicated co-processor is said to eliminate bottlenecks and free up processor bandwidth for system functions. The turbo encoder MegaCore function is priced at $5,995 ...

For an encoder to be called HeavyDuty, it must be absolutely durable, impermeable and precise." Reliable precision is ensured by the interference-immune scanning function with highly robust, optical ...
