An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...

Enhancements to Posital’s programmable encoders have made it simpler to configure wheel-equipped encoders to meet user requirements. Wheel-encoder assemblies measure speed and position directly from a ...

Incremental-rotation or linear encoders are very common, but normally they do not provide a direction signal. This design shows an easy way to detect forward or reverse direction. Incremental encoders ...
