Optical rotary encoders are the most widely used way to transform mechanical rotary motion into electrical signals. There are three basic configurations for optical encoders: incremental, absolute, ...

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 ...

Nanotec Electronic US Inc. is introducing the NOE1, the first rotary encoder in a new product series of optical encoders. Nanotec Electronic US Inc. is introducing the NOE1, the first rotary encoder ...

In aviation the term fly-by-wire means that the control surfaces of an aircraft are operated by actuators rather than via cables and rods, with electrical signals transmitting information from the ...

Get the most out of brushless dc motors by specifying optical encoders. They measure finer movements than hall sensors, because their operation doesn't rely on motor phases. Brushless dc (BLDC) motors ...

Avago Technologies, a leading supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications, today announced a high-resolution absolute optical encoder for ...

NovaPlus machines use an array of horizontal and vertical axes to perform multiple functions simultaneously. Amicra Microtechnologies of Regensburg, Germany, develops and manufactures precision ...
