Parallax 36-Position Quadrature Encoder Set

The Parallax 36-position Quadrature Encoder Set conveniently provides rotational feedback for robot wheels. This set integrates with our Motor Mount and Wheel Kit. Or, use this kit with your own custom robots or mechanical systems with axles.

Features:

• Provides two out-of-phase outputs from within a single sensor assembly
• Solder the included 6-pin, right-angle headers in the best position for your application
• 36-position encoder disks, which resolve to 144 positions with the quadrature sensor output, are incised to grip 1/2 diameter axles
• Low power consumption doesnt drain your mobile power sources
• Dual-channel outputs provide both speed and directional information
• 6-pin single-row header accommodates a 4-wire or 6-wire interface

Application Ideas:

• Robotic platform control
• Industrial motion feedback sensing
