Initial Linear Encoder Results
Posted by Ril3y on December 16, 2009 | One comment
So I tested out the resolution of the linear encoder I made (blog entry here) a bit back. This is just a quick update and shows that there is a vast amount of digital pulses created by running a magnet over the sensor. I hooked up my logic analyzer and took a peek at what was getting generated. This does not really do anything yet however has the potential to create a cheap brushless DC motor with accuracy built into the table. (assuming CNC applications etc).
Here is the video and screen shot:
