The AS5046, a 12-bit magnetic rotary encoder, offers rotation, tilt, and vertical distance detection of a magnet moving above it. The device can detect vertical distances over ...

The 5040 will output quadrature encoder, so it can plug straight into a servo amp like Gecko’s. The 5045 only has SPI output but having 12 bit resolution is pretty cool.

Optical or magnetic linear encoders handle high-res needs in dirty jobs. Linear encoders help minimize errors in motion transmission such as backlash, hysteresis, abbe errors, ball-screw thermal ...

Unterpremstaetten, Austria — Austriamicrosystems AG rolled out a 12-bit resolution magnetic rotary encoder IC that addresses demand for high-resolution, low-speed applications. The IC, which provides ...

Permanent-magnet brushless dc servomotors (PMBDCs) provide the highest continuous torque density and efficiency of any electric motors, which is why they are widespread. However, getting top ...

Rotational magnetic encoders have been developed that convert mechanical rotary motion into a digital pulse stream. The encoders use newly available solid-state magnetic rotary encoding technology ...
