[Pete] needed a rotary encoder for one of his project so he set out to build his own. As the name implies, a rotary encoder measures rotation by encoding “steps” into electrical signals… ...

When it comes to rotary encoders, there are plenty of options. Most of them involve putting a credit card number into an online vendor’s website, though, and that’s sometimes just not i… ...

A new combined interface for Optocode absolute rotary encoders allows simultaneous communication of both absolute and incremental rotary position data.

Electronic enthusiasts, hobbyists and engineers looking for an open source rotary encoder complete with a circular 1.2 inch programmable TFT circular display may be interested in the Roendi.

Whether incremental or absolute, magnetic or optical, rotary encoders track motor shaft rotation to generate digital position and motion information. Their use proliferates in ...

Rotary encoder decode for Arduino It is amazing how many Arduino programmes for decoding rotary encoders start with something like: “I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of ...

Adafruit has made an I2C interface for four rotary encoders. It comes in the form of a PCB with four footprints that accept one of the most common rotary encoder forms (Bournes PEC11 horizontal style) ...

Need a rotary panel control that automatically switches between fine and coarse adjustment? It's here.

HEIDENHAIN has released its new series of encoders for potentially explosive atmospheres , which meet the new standards required today for motion control applications. These HEIDENHAIN ExN and ROx ...

HEIDENHAIN unveils a new line of rotary encoders for Potentially Explosive Atmospheres . Many industries -- such as oil and gas, printing, and silage -- operate in such environments. The ExN 400 ...

In devices which use rotary knobs, the AS5601 and its paired magnet may replace a rotary encoder without any change to the host microcontroller or its application software.
