80 count Rotary Encoder
A USB mechanical rotary encoder. This type of encoder is typically used for human
interface, not measuring the speed of motors and pulleys.
The Encoder comes with a custom 6 foot USB cable.
Stats:
80 counts per revolution
Mechanical Dents: NO
Push Button Shaft: YES
The PhidgetEncoder uses a typical 2-Bit mechanical encoder with built-in momentary
pushbutton switch. The part that comes with the Phidget Encoder is manufactured
by CTS Part # 290UAA5F201B1 (
datasheet)
and is available from www.Digikey.com Part # CT3010-ND.
If you decide that this encoder does not meet your requirements it is possible to
use other 2-Bit mechanical encoders. Since your new encoder won't have exactly the
same pin out you should use wire to connect your new encoder the appropriate pins
on the Phidget board.
