Re: Magnetic Encoder Advice
The KOP magnetic encoder is ok as a demo board. For our robot we prefer a more rugged device. This year we are using Vishay 981He and last year Cherry AN8. Both are automotive qualified. They have some electrostatic protection and are sealed. They are both analog. Couldn't find a spi or i2c device I liked that was with in our budget.
