Jerry, go to: EE 401 - Electrical Engineering Design Course - 1999/2000 then to shaft encoders they have 16, 32, or 64 sections you can print out. bye, Terry G. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jerry Normandin" <jerrynormandin@ne.m...iaone.net> (...)

Hi, My homebrew quad hall effect encoder works, I'm learning from it. I get @ 1/4" resolution so there's plenty of slop. I can have the robot pace back and forth on a straight track for 6 passes or so then I start to veer off track. So I guess it's (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi everyone. Well I decided to go with a Quad Hall Effect encoder. I mounted 4 very small magnets on my 1" plastic drive gears and used the Hall Effect switch that Fred recommended. Here's the code I have and the results! For a 180 degree turn I get (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

hi. you can certainly tap the 9.6v batt output to power the sensor (use J13), but make *sure* that the sensor does not put out more than 5v, or you'll blow your analog inputs. if you're not sure, put a 1K resistor in series with the sensor's output (...)
