Avago Technologies, the world's largest privately held semiconductor company, today introduced an enhanced series of cost-competitive ultra-small optical encoder modules with resolutions of up to 360 ...

Optical encoders are nothing new; they can be found in everything from mice to printers. They’re great for allowing DC motors to know their exact position and even current direction. If this is ...

Fargo Electronics Inc's new Pro-LX laminating card printer/encoder, with nearly a dozen major design improvements, replaces the Pro-L in Fargo's Professional Fargo Electronics Inc's new Pro-LX ...

Optical encoders and transducers enable users to translate information from one code to another. Optical encoders come in different varieties including rotary encoders and linear encoders. The optical ...

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 ...

Encoders are widely used in the motion control and automation industry to monitor the position and speed of motors. This information can be used by the motion control electronics to detect if the ...

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 ...
