Palo Alto, Calif. — Agilent Technologies Inc. has launched a new, thinner version of its absolute encoder module that is said to be the smallest in the industry. Designated as the AEAS-7500 encoder, ...

A novel absolute encoder module that comes in 12- and 16-bit versions uses a modular approach to reduce the number of assembly steps from as many as eight down to just four (see the figure ...

Available with multiple output configurations, the encoder will feature 12-bit resolution over 360-degree rotation. The absolute encoder will feature a bearing life easily exceeding 1 billion ...
