Rotation Sensor


Introduction

Principle: An incremental encoder is a rotary sensor that converts rotational displacement into a series of digital pulse signals. The number of pulses output during forward and reverse rotation can be counted by rotation. Unlike potentiometers, there is no limit to the number of rotations that can be counted. Together with the keypad on the rotary encoder, it can be reset to the initial state, i.e. counting from 0.

Uses: Solving positioning problems in industrial control

How to Use

In the case of working with a MCU:

  • VCC ↔ 3.0V ~ 5.3V

  • GND ↔ power supply ground

  • SW ↔ MCU.IO (encoder button status)

  • SIB ↔ MCU.IO (output status)

  • SIA ↔ MCU.IO (output status)
