  2. Linear encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_encoder

    A linear encoder is a sensor, transducer or readhead paired with a scale that encodes position. The sensor reads the scale in order to convert the encoded position into an analog or digital signal , which can then be decoded into position by a digital readout (DRO) or motion controller.

  3. Linear code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_code

    The codewords in a linear block code are blocks of symbols that are encoded using more symbols than the original value to be sent. [2] A linear code of length n transmits blocks containing n symbols. For example, the [7,4,3] Hamming code is a linear binary code which represents 4-bit messages using 7-bit codewords. Two distinct codewords differ ...

  4. Encoder (position) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoder_(position)

    Absolute encoders give an absolute position value. Incremental encoders count movement rather than position. With detection of a datum position and the use of a counter, an absolute position may be derived. The position may be measured as either linear or angular position Linear encoder, converts linear position to an electronic signal

  5. String potentiometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_potentiometer

    The string potentiometer may be connected as a three-wire tapped resistor (voltage divider), in a control circuit, or may be packaged with electronics to produce a measurement signal in a useful form, such as a variable voltage 0-10 VDC, variable current 4-20mA, pulse encoder, Bus (DeviceNet and Canbus) and RS-232 communications.

  6. Incremental encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_encoder

    Rotary incremental encoder with shaft attached to its thru-bore opening Introduction to incremental encoders, from VideoWiki script Incremental Encoder. An incremental encoder is a linear or rotary electromechanical device that has two output signals, A and B, which issue pulses when the device is moved. [1]

    Arduino IDE support with 16/256/320 MHz presets and port of Arduino library. Also works with standard C/C++, stdio, gdb from the shell. Hardware multiply (4 cycle) and divide (32 cycle). DAQduino: PICcircuit.com PIC18F2550 or PIC18F2553 DAQduino is iCP12 usbStick that built in Arduino form of external ports connection.

  8. Encoder (digital) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoder_(digital)

    A General encoder's block diagram. An encoder (or "simple encoder") in digital electronics is a one-hot to binary converter. That is, if there are 2 n input lines, and at most only one of them will ever be high, the binary code of this 'hot' line is produced on the n-bit output lines. A binary encoder is the dual of a binary decoder.

  9. Gray code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code

    Gray codes are used in linear and rotary position encoders (absolute encoders and quadrature encoders) in preference to weighted binary encoding. This avoids the possibility that, when multiple bits change in the binary representation of a position, a misread will result from some of the bits changing before others.
