Some designers continue to specify linear encoders for applications in which magnetostrictive sensors would work, the former is a familiar technology. However, as we'll explore, magnetostrictive ...

MTS Systems' Sensors Division's magnetostrictive sensors now provide the performance level that make them preferable alternatives to linear encoders in certain applications.

They also find use as motionfeedback sensors in high-speed positioning systems using linear servomotors. There is a wide assortment of linear-encoder technologies from which to choose.

12-bit universal magnetic position encoder IC includes linear Hall sensor array adapted to the targets’ magnetic pole pitch of 2 mm The iC-MHL200 from iC-Haus is a 12-bit IC for linear and ...

Linear encoders are the sensors that detect linear movements as absolute position values without establishing a physical contact with the object. Linear encoders play a crucial role in determining ...
