Alignment of optical encoder commutation signals to a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor could be thought of as being comparable to timing the distributor on a car engine. The distributor tells the spark plugs ...

CUI Inc. has announced an addition to its next-generation modular encoder series that generates standard U/V/W commutation signals for vectoring current to brushless motors. Positional information for ...

The AMT303 series commutation encoder generates standard U/V/W commutation signals for vectoring current to brushless motors. Resolutions can be set through the component’s SPI while commutation ...

Engineers using an incremental encoder for the first time often have a misunderstanding about what types of signals are provided by an encoder and how to interface an encoder to their application.

Permanent-magnet brushless dc servomotors (PMBDCs) provide the highest continuous torque density and efficiency of any electric motors, which is why they are widespread. However, getting top ...

Brushless dc (BLDC) motors are used in countless applications. Many engineers today are looking to improve the performance of their BLDC-powered systems, and a new trend is emerging: An increasing ...

The new magnetic AEMT-12/16 L absolute encoder delivers absolute angle information with a preset multiturn resolution of 16 bits (65536 revolutions) and a singleturn resolution of 12 bits (4096 steps) ...
