In any mechanical system, the best components will only deliver optimum performance if they are designed to work together and are properly connected. Nowhere is this better exemplified than in the ...

Rotary and linear optical encoders are common in position and motion sensing. Here, a disc or plate containing opaque and transparent segments passes between an LED and detector to interrupt a light ...

Rotary encoders convert rotary movement or angular position into analogue or digital signals for use in measurement or control systems. They can be classified in a number of ways, primarily by the ...

Automotive-compliant Hall-effect latches in Diodes’ AH371xQ series have an operating voltage range of 3 V to 27 V, with 40-V load dump protection. Resistant to physical stress, the parts are qualified ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...
