Phidget Encoder HighSpeed 1057_2B

The PhidgetEncoder Highspeed allows for the connection of any 5V quadrature encoder and is ideal for determining position and speed in DC or stepper motor applications. As a widely used feedback system, the encoder precisely captures the motor’s rotational movement – perfect for applications requiring high control accuracy. The device connects easily to a computer via USB.

Features

• Ultra-fast signal capture: up to 500,000 quadrature cycles per second
• Highly versatile: compatible with line driver, open collector, and push-pull signals; configurable termination resistors
• Index channel supported (if available)
• Each position change is timestamped in milliseconds – ideal for precise velocity calculations
• Data output up to 125 Hz
• Mounting hardware included
