Rotary encoding is a common mechanism for the delivery of accurate speed, acceleration, and position of the motor rotor. Rotary encoders are commonly deployed in the closed-loop rotor systems used in ...

Insights into the use of built-in accelerometers and additional sensors in encoders to enable predictive maintenance and condition monitoring while simplifying installation and cabling. The FOT ...

Rotary encoders are great devices. Monitoring just a few pins you can easily and quickly read in rotation and direction of a user input (as well as many other applications). But as with anything, t… ...

In a recent email, Julian Lana-Sarrate, an independent embedded designer, described a good method for confirming the operation of a rotary encoder using a rising edge-count measurement. He included ...

This project demonstrates a classic embedded system application: using a rotary encoder to control a value displayed on an I2S OLED screen, all driven by an STM32F103C8T6 microcontroller. The entire ...

Rotary encoder decode for Arduino It is amazing how many Arduino programmes for decoding rotary encoders start with something like: “I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of ...

Hirschmann's new gSENS DWG 20 rotary encoder uses optical sensors to break down one revolution of a shaft, of a hoist or slew drive unit, for example, into 8192 increments.

A PWM waveform generator with variable duty cycle has been designed and implemented in this paper. The design has been simulated for different frequencies. The waveform is generated on Spartan 3E FPGA ...
