Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

TT Electronics has launched FlexSense a technology designed to optimize optical encoder applications. The FlexSense series consists of the FS210 Transmissive Incremental Encoder and the FS310 ...

Optical sensors are successfully used for measurement in many areas, such as the position sensing of moving objects or the measurement of distance. The types of sensor elements used in these ...

Get the most out of brushless dc motors by specifying optical encoders. They measure finer movements than hall sensors, because their operation doesn't rely on motor phases. Brushless dc (BLDC) motors ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

To attain accurate positioning, a servo system requires a feedback signal to close its feedback loop. Instruments that typically supply the feedback signal include optical encoders, resolvers, and ...
