Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

This paper proposes the digital optoelectrical pulse (DOP) method for vernier-type rotary encoders in highresolution applications. A 25-b encoder using the DOP method is demonstrated. In rotary ...

This library uses a PCF8575 to read the pulses of a rotary encoder. As a PCF8575 has 16 lines up to 8 decoders can be read over I2C. The PCF interrupt line can be used to detect changes in the ...

POSITAL has enhanced its IXARC family of incremental magnetic encoders, increasing the maximum resolution to 32,768 pulses per revolution (PPR). This upgrade includes new phasing options, offering a ...

Accurate measurement of rotary shaft motion, including position, velocity, and acceleration, is crucial in numerous applications.

I have a project where I want to use five rotary encoders. There are of course GPIO expander ICs such as the MCP23017 but to use that kind of chip would bring in a lot of unnecessary complexity since ...

There are many ways you can read a rotary encoder. Some are probably better than my method. Also, these cheap mechanical encoders are terrible.

Position and motion sensor specialist Posital has announced that it has expanded its range of absolute rotary encoders and inclinometers to include support the popular Modbus RTU communications ...
