(...) hy, I used HewlettPackard shaft encoders HEDL5540 (500 steps per revoltion) with HCTL2020 quadrature shaft counters/decoders. With them you get 500*4=2000 steps per revolution, which is quite a lot. For me They seem to be a good (but not (...) (28 years ago, 28-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

You can time share both your digital and your analog so long as your signal update speeds are not critical. Use a 4 to 8 demultiplexing chip for 4 of your digital I/O and an 8 to 4 multiplexer for the other 4. This effectively provides 8 digital (...)

As a neophyte robot builder and HandBoard user, may I ask for help in choosing the best shaft encoder? What vendor/supplier should I use? The current project is a very simple robot with a goal of accurate navigation. Thanks! (28 years ago, 28-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
