Optical Encoders: The Essentials
An optical encoder is a device that assists in the gathering of positioning and velocity data for brush commutated and brushless DC motors and gearmotors. This data can provide the opportunity for greater motor control and an increase in the number of possible applications for a given motor.
Discover the science behind the different types of optical encoders and how increased positioning and velocity data can increase both the flexibility and productivity of a variety of different motors.
