Index pulse, also known as Z, marker, or I The Index pulse is a pulse that occurs once per rotation. It’s duration is nominally one A (or B) electrical cycle, but can be gated to reduce the pulse ...

How position encoders should communicate with controllers often depends on compatibility issues rather than raw speed.

In depth: Capacitive-encoder internals The CUI capacitive encoder works by first generating a digital transmitter signal. The digital signal is at 5 MHz and is modulated by pulse-density ...

Encoders make motion control possible by sensing the motor’s speed and position and sending feedback signals to control components. Two square waves, or channels, shifted 90 electrical degrees from ...

Rotary encoders generate signals in different ways, including mechanical, magnetic, capacitive and optical methods. The optical encoder is the most common, as it produces the more precise data.

With this method, get the encoder signal processing circuit simplified, the power consumption reduced, the system anti-interference ability improved, and realized the direct-identification and ...

Leine and Linde now offers a newly revised signal splitter, allowing outputs from a single encoder to be sent to two separate control systems.
