We’re all familiar with getting feedback from a rotating shaft, for which we usually employ a potentiometer or encoder. But there’s another device that, while less well-known, has some advantages that ...

The 700 Series of pushbutton mechanical encoders/potentiometers offers the option of using either digital or analog circuitry in the same 0.890-inch package. The Series also features an integrated ...

What is a rotary encoder? A rotary encoder (RT) is a device that you can rotate infinitely. On most rotary encoders, when you rotate them you will feel a bump (known as steps), and most RTs have about ...

Technical details on the operation, benefits, and use of cable-type position transducers are available free of charge from SpaceAge Control. The String Technical details on the operation, benefits, ...

LSI Computer Systems (LSI/CSI) has created a family of 63 tap (6bit) digital potentiometers for direct connection to quadrature decoders, push buttons, GPIOs or SPI serial controls. Debounce circuits ...

knitter-switch MERP12 rotary encoders have been designed to replace traditional rotary potentiometers in a wide range of applications and have the added benefit of being illuminated. The new MERP12 ...

The encoder provides UVW outputs with 16 poles (eight pole pairs), and incremental, absolute, linear (potentiometer), tacho generator, and sinusoidal outputs. It can come pre-programmed or can be user ...

Gear Potentiometers are also called Thumbwheel Potentiometers. Let’s investigate them. There are many varieties of compact gear potentiometers available. Most of them are single and dual – this time ...

While the “M” in MIDI stands for “musical”, it’s possible to use this standard for other things as well. [s-ol] has been working on a VJ setup (mixing video instead of music) using various ...

Brief tutorial video details the background for the development and varied applications of switch, circuit breaker, potentiometer and encoder environmental protection sealing boots. Types, conditions, ...
