FFmpeg’s biggest speedup yet affects only one function few people will have heard ofHandwritten Assembly makes a comeback in ...

Many motors offer a quadrature encoder that give feedback on whether, and in which direction, the motor shaft is moving. But if you’re clever about analyzing the data you can use a quadrature ...

[GreatScott!] knows this, and rather than put up with the bump and grind of a cheap rotary encoder, he decided to find an alternative. He ended up exploring hard drive motors as encoders, ...

The first encoder is a widely used early 12-bit model that has proven to be reliable, low-cost and reasonably accurate. It includes an ABZ quadrature interface, providing 4,096 counts/turn, making ...

For all the attention Linux.Encoder.1 ransomware has gotten, a lot of people seem to be missing that it's easy to fix. Here's how to do it.

I lifted off the rotary encoder from the circuit board as it was the only thing needed for my project. Below you can see the pinout drawing of that 24-step, 9mm mouse scroll wheel rotary encoder. As ...

The encoder rotates clockwise whenChannel A leads Channel B. If ChannelB leads Channel A, the encoder isrotating counter clockwise. By countingthe pulses and the direction of rotation,you can find the ...

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world.And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...
