  2. Incremental encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_encoder

    An incremental encoder employs a quadrature encoder to generate its A and B output signals. The pulses emitted from the A and B outputs are quadrature-encoded, meaning that when the incremental encoder is moving at a constant velocity, the A and B waveforms are square waves and there is a 90 degree phase difference between A and B .

  3. Quadrature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrature

    Quadrature encoder, a device that detects mechanical position changes and direction of movement; Illusionistic ceiling painting, sometimes called quadrature after the Italian term, quadratura; La Quadrature du Net (Squaring of the Net in French), a French advocacy group that promotes digital rights and freedoms of citizens

  4. Rotary encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_encoder

    A rotary incremental encoder has two output signals, A and B, which issue a periodic digital waveform in quadrature when the encoder shaft rotates. This is similar to sine encoders, which output sinusoidal waveforms in quadrature (i.e., sine and cosine), [13] thus combining the characteristics of an encoder and a resolver. The waveform ...

    The interface keeps track of position by counting encoder pulses. It counts up when the quadrature phase difference is positive and down when the difference is negative, or vice versa. To do this, interfaces employ a quadrature decoder to convert the A and B pulses into direction and count enable signals, which in turn control an up/down counter.

  6. In-phase and quadrature components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-phase_and_quadrature...

    The two amplitude-modulated sinusoids are known as the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components, which describes their relationships with the amplitude- and phase-modulated carrier. [ A ] [ 2 ] Or in other words, it is possible to create an arbitrarily phase-shifted sine wave, by mixing together two sine waves that are 90° out of phase in ...

  7. Linear encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_encoder

    In either case, the encoder will output quadrature squarewaves, with the distance between edges of the two channels being the resolution of the encoder. The reference mark or index pulse is also output in digital form, as a pulse which is one to four units-of-resolution wide.

  8. Gray code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code

    For many years, Torsten Sillke [79] and other mathematicians believed that it was impossible to encode position on a single track such that consecutive positions differed at only a single sensor, except for the 2-sensor, 1-track quadrature encoder. So for applications where 8 tracks were too bulky, people used single-track incremental encoders ...
