Abstract: This article introduces an inexpensive Wiegand-sensor-based rotary encoder that avoids rotating magnets and is suitable for electrical-drive applications. So far, Wiegand-sensor-based ...

A quadrature encoder uses two output channels offset in phase to detect both direction and position with greater precision.

Abstract: The parameters of the analog waveforms produced by the front-end electronics of absolute optical rotary encoders are affected by substantial differences and drifts. The threshold level ...
