The counter project was created to read one or two digital or analog sensors and display the running total on an organic LED display. The speed of an attached DC motor can be controlled by the counter ...

Using the LS7366 counter from LSI Computer Systems, designers of feedback systems for encoders, “which typically find use on shafts and machinery,” can offload their system processors, according to ...

Quadrature encoders have many uses in position-sensing applications. This implementation uses a Xilinx complex programmable logic device (CPLD) to count the pulses from the encoder and determine the ...

The LS7366R IC performs decoding and counting of quadrature clocks directly from incremental encoders. It’s a dedicated solution to position and displacement tracking at 40 x 106/sec. line rate (at 5 ...

I was thinking about using a hexadecimal control switch and ended up pondering what alternatives exist. For example, how about a quadrature encoder and an up-down counter. There appear to be a couple ...

The ADAM-5081 is a high speed quadrature encoder and counter module for use with the vendor’s ADAM-5550 series Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs). It has a high isolation of 2,500VDC,, a high ...

The module is designed to work with incremental encoders or other field devices that send pulse outputs and features four 9-30 VDC sinking/sourcing inputs and two isolated sinking/sourcing DC outputs.

Special hardware can overcome software latency that may otherwise negate precise motion control. Precision motion control is virtually never an end in itself. Rather, it ties position to other events ...
