Avago Technologies (Nasdaq: AVGO), a leading supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications, today announced a high-resolution absolute optical ...

This series of low-cost, modular absolute encoders is suited to severe electrical (EMI) and physical (high temperature, vibration and moisture) environments. The units will convert any shaft input to ...

The Avago Technologies AEAT-9000 series are high resolution single turn optical absolute encoders. They are designed to allow design engineers to achieve superior positioning performance in terms of ...

A novel absolute encoder module that comes in 12- and 16-bit versions uses a modular approach to reduce the number of assembly steps from as many as eight down to just four (see the figure). Agilent ...

Rotary and linear optical encoders are common in position and motion sensing. Here, a disc or plate containing opaque and transparent segments passes between an LED and detector to interrupt a light ...

Groomed for servo and motor-feedback applications, the AEAT-9000 absolute encoder provides best-in-class accuracy for smooth motor drive performance. Groomed for servo and motor-feedback applications, ...

The new magnetic encoders from Posital provide absolute position feedback They are available with multi-turn measurement ranges which can be useful when a motor is connected to a screw shaft, cable ...

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 ...
