wheel encoder is a device used to measure the rotational movement or position of a wheel. It provides information about the distance traveled, speed, and direction of rotation.
These encoders generate pulses as the shaft rotates. They provide information about relative position and movement. Two output channels: A and B, which produce quadrature signals. No absolute position information: They reset to zero when powered on.
These encoders provide unique digital codes for each position. They give absolute position information without needing a reference point. Binary or Gray code: Representing position. Higher resolution: Can provide finer position details. No need for homing: Retain position even after power cycles.
