36-position Quadrature Encoder Set (#29321)
The Parallax 36-position Quadrature Encoder Set conveniently
provides rotational feedback for robotic or mechanical drive
systems. Although these Encoders were designed specifically
for the Motor Mount and Wheel Kit #28962 (which is included
with the Arlo Complete Robot System #28966), it can be used
for many other applications that require real-time rotational
feedback.
Therefore, you can use this kit with your own
custom robots or any mechanical systems with ½" diameter
axles.
Although earlier versions of this kit
they now do. This provides more flexibility for cable routing
in order to make more reliable connections.
Features
Provides two out-of-phase outputs from
within a single sensor assembly
36-position Delrin encoder disks are incised
to firmly grip ½" diameter axles
Dual-signal out-of-phase outputs indicate
direction, pulse widths indicate speed, and
number of pulses indicates distance traveled
Small form-factor and low voltage/current
operation are easy to integrate with your
robotic system
6-pin, single row header with 0.1" spacing
provides a simple 4-wire or dual 3-wire
interface
