Like linear encoder, a rotary encoder can also be either incremental or absolute. The rotary encoders are widely used for velocity control, temperature control, position sensing, and volume control.
Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...
