Introduction to Encoders

Encoders are devices used to measure motion, position, and speed. They can be used in a variety of applications, from factory automation to robotics, entertainment systems, and more. Encoders are divided into two main types: optical and mechanical encoders.

Optical Encoders

Optical encoders use light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to detect the angular position of a rotating shaft. They provide precise speed and position sensing and are used in applications where accuracy and repeatability is paramount. They also have low power consumption and are immune to electrical noise.

Mechanical Encoders

Mechanical encoders use mechanical parts such as gears and cams to detect the angular position of a rotating shaft. They are often preferred for their mechanical robustness and are usually used in applications where cost is a deciding factor. Additionally, mechanical encoders are suitable for applications with large speed and acceleration ranges.
