Re: Magnetic Encoder Advice
They have no dead band. How ever they are dependent on the supply voltage. if they are given 5 volts they will give an analog voltage from 0 deg - .5 volts and 360 deg 4.5. If the supply voltage was 4.95 then it would be .495 to 4.45.
This isn't a problem with the analog break outs this year but was noticeable last year. We did manage to eat a Vishay this year from a mechanical failure. They work great as long as we don't smash them. The Cherry AN8 served us well last year too. Ideal for pivot drive and arm sensing.
