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 ...

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 ...

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® ...

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 ...

Rotary encoders are electromechanical devices used for sensing in myriad applications—on motors paired with drives and automated machinery for everything from consumer electronics, elevators, and ...

austriamicrosystems announces the AS5055 magnetic rotary encoder with automatic power-down and wake-up modes. Targeted for low-power battery operated applications such as robotics, the new encoder is ...

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 ...

The encoders are based on the company’s self-contained magnetic rotary encoders used with servomotors and rotating equipment, but with the core components of these instruments available as separate ...

POSITAL’s new family of kit encoders provide the manufacturers of servomotors and other machinery with rugged, accurate and cost-efficient tools for building rotary position measurements into their ...

Littelfuse, Inc. has launched two new TMR-based magnetic angle sensors, the LF53466 and LF53464. The sensors are designed to deliver high-precision 0–360° angular measurement in harsh environments ...
