How to substantially reduce encoder cost while gaining functionality with 44-Turn multi-turn rotary position sensors—retaining count and position during power loss.

We’re all familiar with getting feedback from a rotating shaft, for which we usually employ a potentiometer or encoder. But there’s another device that, while less well-known, has some advantages that ...

Verasonics, Inc., the leader in research ultrasound, today announced the release of a significant update for its Vantage NXT Research Ultrasound platform. The release introduces advanced hardware ...

Aimed at linear motion and off-axis rotational measurements, the AS5305 magnetic rotary encoder IC is a complete system-on-a-chip, combining Hall elements and a signal processor. The device supports ...

My previous blog Encoders Know All the Angles introduced encoders that provide information about rotary positions. A diagram illustrated the phase relationship of signals from an incremental encoder.

AUBURN, Mass., April 8, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- PI (Physik Instrumente), a global leader in precision motion control, announces the launch of the V-625 direct drive rotation stage, a ...

The UPR-270 Air features best value for wobble and flatness and one can reach high accuracy because of high-precision air bearing. All rotation stages UPR-270 AIR are directly driven by a torque motor ...

An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...

The A-62x PIglide RM Rotation Stage with Air Bearings features best value for wobble and flatness and one can reach high accuracy because of high-precision air bearing. The PIglide RM series of ...

In a project, repetitive tasks that break the flow of development work are incredibly tiresome and even simple automation can make a world of difference. [Simon Merrett] ran into exactly this while ...
