The FlexSense sensor integrates several key features including auto-alignment capability, a closed-loop LED driver, on-chip diagnostics, and a state-of-the-art 8x interpolator. In addition, the fully ...

For engineers seeking a motor scaled down in size but not power, QuickSilver Controls has extended its Mosolver (portmanteau of “motor” and “resolver”) servo motion actuator into a NEMA 17 frame ...

A sensor also had to be installed to check vacuum pressure after each disk was picked up. Not surprisingly, since the machine was designed to pick up small disks for the E4T encoder, some adjustments ...

The most commonly used encoder are optical encoders.“Inside these encoders is a disk with opaque and transparent areas, usually in a pattern of lines and windows,” said Donowitz. “An LED array shines ...

Image credit: Photos.com. Encoder Technologies Rotary encoders are usually implemented in various technologies: Magnetic technology - Strips of magnetized material are kept on a rotating disk and ...

Faults on the incremental encoder disc or errors in the signal path can be detected reliably by using the formula sin² (x) + cos² (x) = 1 to evaluate the incremental sine and cosine signals from the ...

You would have 360/ (212) unique codes for a resolution of 5.3 minutes. Loss of power does not affect the encoder, so you know the position of a mechanism attached to your encoder when power returns.

If you look at the image right now, sensor A detects a black box, sensor B would register a white box. Because they are 1/2 step apart, they will never change state at the same time.
