Rotary quadrature encoders often are used to command digital potentiometers or digital controllers, and quadrature decoding is typically performed in a programmable device (like an FPGA or ...

I wrote a bit of VHDL for generating inc/dec pulses from quadrature rotary encoders like the CTS Electrocomponents ones I bought from Digikey for a project I worked on recently. This debounce circuit ...

Special hardware can overcome software latency that may otherwise negate precise motion control. Precision motion control is virtually never an end in itself. Rather, it ties position to other events ...
