These IXARC magnetic encoders withstand harsh environments and are modular for maximum versatility. Rotary encoders measure the rotation of machine shafts and report the results to electronic controls ...

The magnetic rotary encoder (MRE) reference design is a smart integrated system for angle measurement. It is composed of a FXOS8700 magnetometer, a Kinetis KL46Z microcontroller built on the ARM® ...

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 ...

Motion-control or industrial automation system designers who need to measure the rotation of shafts or other mechanical components can typically choose from two types of rotary encoders. Encoders ...

austriamicrosystems introduces the AS5046, a new 12-bit resolution magnetic rotary encoder offering rotation, tilt and vertical distance detection of a magnet placed above the IC. The device can ...

Operating reliably in extreme conditions and applications, the solid-state RLS magnetic rotary sensors/encoders offer redundant models featuring two independent sensors on one chip. Each sensor is ...

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 ...

A 10bit magnetic rotary encoder ic for contactless position sensing is said to combine the industry's lowest power and smallest size. austriamicrosystems' AS5050 encoder features automatic power down ...

Ever tear open a potentiometer? If you haven’t, you can still probably guess what’s inside. A streak of resistive material with some kind of contact that moves across it as you rotate the shaft, right ...
