Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

Melexis has announced a new model of the MLX90514, a dual-input inductive sensor interface, tailored for robotics, industrial, and mobility applications. Through its SSI output protocol, it produces ...

Get the most out of brushless dc motors by specifying optical encoders. They measure finer movements than hall sensors, because their operation doesn't rely on motor phases. Brushless dc (BLDC) motors ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

Böblingen, Germany – Avago Technologies, the world's largest privately held semiconductor company, today announced its first series of small 6-channel optical incremental C-shaped encoder modules for ...

The Melexis MLX90514 inductive sensor delivers high-precision position sensing, while reducing system complexity.

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...

iC-Haus will demonstrate its latest 26bit resolution optical encoder IC at SPS next month in Nuremberg. iC-RT2624, as it will be known, is aimed at both housed and kit encoders, and will achieve its ...

The AEDR 8400 series are the industry’s smallest reflective incremental optical encoders, according to Avago Technologies. The encoders combine this extremely small size—3.00 mm by 3.28 mm by 1.262 mm ...
