Quadrature Encoder Phidget
The ENC1000 has been replaced by the ENC1001, which requires a newer version of our libraries. We still have a small stock of ENC1000 held in reserve for OEM customers who need more time to upgrade their libraries. For more information, contact sales@phidgets.com.
The Quadrature Encoder Phidget interfaces with any 5V quadrature encoder. A quadrature encoder is the most commonly used feedback device for a DC or stepper motor. With an encoder, you can keep track of how far your motor has turned, which then allows you to control the position and velocity in your code. This Phidget connects to your computer through a VINT Hub.
Features
- Works with all 0-5V quadrature encoders with line driver, open collector, or push-pull outputs
- Read at speeds of up to 100,000 quadrature cycles per second
- Power saving options to turn off your encoder using your program when the device is not turning
