Everyone has at least one extra mouse laying around; why not get some use out of it? Disassembling the mouse you can get two optical encoders plus four infrared emitter/detector pairs. Then you can ...

The sensing mechanism in an incremental optical rotary encoder consists primarily of a light source, code wheel, and optical detector. As the code wheel turns, a ring of alternating opaque and ...

CUI Inc introduces a new panel mount optical encoder that has a 2-bit quadrature resolution and can be used in a wide variety of applications. The C14 series is of high quality with a clean, crisp ...

CUI Inc announces that their C14 panel mount optical encoder is now available with optional IP65 protection to prevent dust and water intrusion. The C14 series offers a 2-bit quadrature resolution ...

Adaptable to a wide range of designs, the C14 panel-mount optical encoder delivers a two-bit quadrature resolution via a clean, crisp square-wave output. The encoder employs no plastic components and ...

Milwaukee-GE Marquette Medical Systems manufactures monitoring and diagnostic systems. The DASH 2000/3000 is a compact portable monitor used in ambulances by emergency medical technicians to track ...

Optical rotary encoders are the most widely used way to transform mechanical rotary motion into electrical signals. There are three basic configurations for optical encoders: incremental, absolute, ...

This encoder has a passive design and runs at temperatures from -60 to 150C, runs farther than copper encoder links by up to 1,000m, is immune to lightning and high-voltage static or plasma fields, ...
