Leine and Linde now offers a newly revised signal splitter, allowing outputs from a single encoder to be sent to two separate control systems. This DIN Mounted Interface converter (DMI) provides this ...

Engineers using an incremental encoder for the first time often have a misunderstanding about what types of signals are provided by an encoder and how to interface an encoder to their application.

Allegro's new AL1020 audio/video encoder supplies a single platform for delivering a live T-DMB signal for mobile TV, IPTV and Web TV. It accepts both digital and analog audio and video input and ...

Rotary encoders sense changes in the position of a rotating shaft, then generate signals that send speed, direction, and position information to a receiving device such as a counter, drive, or ...

Encoders are widely used to help control machine position and speed. Typical encoder output, a series of quadrature signals, consists of two full square waves, offset by 90° in phase. The number of ...

Direct drives place rigorous demands on position-signal quality. Optimum measuring signals increase the quality of the machined workpiece surface, reduce vibration in the machine frame, stop excessive ...

Alfatron Electronics, the Raleigh, N.C.-based, manufacturer, has introduced the ALF-IPK1HE 4K Networked Encoder and ALF-IPK1HD 4K Networked Decoder, designed for distributing high-quality AV signals ...

The Sendix 5814 and 5834 incremental encoders with Sin/Cos interface provide highly interpolable Sin/Cos differential signals with U = 1 VSS. The encoders produce two Sin/Cos signals offset by 90°, ...

Similar in size and shape to the common panel-mounted potentiometer, the incremental rotary encoder provides an inexpensive ‘digital’ alternative to the analog potentiometer. It is typically used to ...

To attain accurate positioning, a servo system requires a feedback signal to close its feedback loop. Instruments that typically supply the feedback signal include optical encoders, resolvers, and ...
