FFmpeg developers rewrote a single filter in Assembly, achieving a 100x speedup, although its impact is limited and ...

Using an optical encoder similar to what you’d find in a mouse, the Prusa i3 MK3 could detect when filament had been inserted into the extruder.

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 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 ...

I needed a rotary encoder — I pulled a cheap one out of one of those “49 boards for Arduino” kits you see around. Not the finest encoder in the land, I’m sure, but it should do the job.

Encoder bearings can be open (least protection), shielded (moderate protection) or sealed (most protection). A sealed bearing is sufficient protection against dust, ...

2: Bourns’ AMS22S single-turn, magnetic rotary encoder resists side loads and axial forces acting on the shaft. The encoder uses a programmable quad Hall effect IC to measure rotational angle ...

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 ...

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 ...
