Applications
Mechanical Encoder and Potentiometer,
Electroswitch delivers a low cost, multifunctional
rotary interface with repeatable torque and
‘feel’ to match the user’s needs.
resistive (analog) output. Therefore, users have
the unprecedented option of choosing
between two types of outputs; digital or resistive.
The digital outputs are available in absolute or
incremental code, and reflect Electroswitch’s
many years of technological expertise in this
area. The resistive outputs are available in 5K or
10K linear tapers; custom outputs can be
developed upon request. All of these variations
are offered in the same package size and may
be used in any combination. The typical
absolute code is either gray or binary. The four
or five bit output gray code provides the benefit
of only one bit change per change of state.
as an A/B counting code. As the shaft is rotated,
two wave forms are generated and the A/B
code ‘counts’ these pulses, sending them to the
microprocessor to deter mine a ‘relative’
position. The counts or pulses continue with the
rotation of the shaft, which allows the position
to change infinitely, or as the microprocessor
allows. Direction may be deter mined by
analyzing the phase difference between the
two channels.

quadrature. In full quadrature, each change of
state in the two waveforms is counted, providing
the highest form of resolution at 4 counts per
cycle. In half quadrature, only the changes of
state in one wave form are counted, providing
2 counts per cycle. While in quarter quadrature,
only the rise in one wave form is counted,
providing 1 count per cycle.
36 mechanical detent positions that provide up
to 36 electrical outputs per revolution in
standard offering. Without mechanical detents,
the resolution per rotation can be much higher.
Electroswitch offers up to 96 electrical outputs
per revolution in this non-detented method in
custom applications.
make it unique and a valuable choice for any
user. Our push-button feature allows two
functions to be controlled by one shaft. By
integrating the push-button function into its
standard design, Electroswitch has been able
to keep the package size the same for all of the
700 Series products. This push-button feature is
ideal for scrolling and select functions, or to
incorporate an on-off option in one rotary
package size.
