Because encoders limit the number of controls required to increase functionality, they reduce the real estate needed in a given piece of equipment and, in turn, can reduce the point of focus or ...

This Arduino library decodes bidirectional toggle switches (e.g., ALPS SSCM110100) as rotary encoders. It tracks switch toggling triggered by gears or mechanical rotation, determining clockwise (CW) ...

Rotary quadrature encoders often are used to command digital potentiometers or digital controllers, and quadrature decoding is typically performed in a programmable device (like an FPGA or ...

When you need to make very tiny measurements, even noise in closed relays can throw you off. [Marco] was able to observe this effect and wanted to build a switch that didn’t have this problem. He ...

Rotary and linear optical encoders are common in position and motion sensing. Here, a disc or plate containing opaque and transparent segments passes between an LED and detector to interrupt a light ...

19" sub-racks, desktop and tower enclosures, front panels and matching accessories offer the ideal solution for packaging your technology. Reliability and ruggedness are just two of Elma's core ...
