It is a system-on-chip, combining integrated Hall elements, analog front end and digital signal processing in a single device. To measure the angle, only a simple two-pole magnet, rotating over the ...

MUNICH, Germany — Austriamicrosystems (AMS) has expanded its magnetic rotary encoder portfolio with the AS5145, a 12-bit encoder IC especially designed for the growing demands in automotive. The ...

Rotational magnetic encoders have been developed that convert mechanical rotary motion into a digital pulse stream. The encoders use newly available solid-state magnetic rotary encoding technology, ...

As per its creator, the AEAT-6600-T16 debuts as the industry’s highest-resolution Hall-Effect magnetic encoder. The component targets industrial applications, particularly those in harsh environments.

It can detect vertical distances over several millimeters, offering an ideal solution for contactless, multiaxis human interface devices, such as navigational knobs. The AS5046 combines Hall elements ...

In robotics, movements must be precise and well-controlled. As robots are asked to do more as industry becomes more familiar with the technology, there will be an increasing need for high accuracy ...

Why are there so many different angle encoders on the market? Why do they use different scanning and measuring methods? And which one should a designer choose? To answer those questions, engineers at ...
