I wrote up a piece about AustriaMicrosystems’ 12 bit hall-effect rotary encoder and the ebullient and cheerful Mary Bohenek was nice enough to send me a demo board. This thing is a blast—imagine ...

I want to write about something a little different this time. I removed the mechanical scroll wheel rotary encoder from a discarded optical mouse and used it in a little project. I really liked the ...

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

These IXARC magnetic encoders withstand harsh environments and are modular for maximum versatility. Rotary encoders measure the rotation of machine shafts and report the results to electronic controls ...
