Most of the hacks we see around these parts have to do with taking existing components and cobbling them together in interesting new ways. It’s less often that we see existing components gutted and ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

Austriamicrosystems announces new 2-Dimensional Hall-sensor IC for human-machine interfaces. Austriamicrosystems has announced the AS5013, a contactless magnetic encoder IC that monitors the ...

Closed-loop motion designs in aerospace, semiconductor, automotive, military, and medical manufacturing, as well as oil-and-gas exploration and production, require repeatable and reliable measurement ...

Rotational magnetic encoders have been developed that convert mechanical rotary motion into a digital pulse stream. The encoders use newly available solid-state magnetic rotary encoding technology, ...

When it comes to rotary encoders, there are plenty of options. Most of them involve putting a credit card number into an online vendor’s website, though, and that’s sometimes just not in the cards. In ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In the seemingly endless quest for higher motor performance and improved system cost efficiencies, motor manufacturers ...

Most Hall-effect and magnetoresistive (MR) sensors are fabricated on 200mm (8-inch) wafers using CMOS or BiCMOS processes.

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...
