By stacking some small PCBs behind the motor body, it was possible to squeeze a DRV8837 DC motor driver and a pair of hall effect sensors on the first PCB layer, with the magnetic encoder nestled ...

Yes I have :-) I Used a CUI AMT10E encoder with 4*5120 = 20480 pulses per revolution in quadrature mode. Sure not as precise as if you directly mount it to the motor, but I was pretty happy with ...

If you treat the pins as binary, you can read them as 00, 01, 10, or 11 (sequence the encoder outputs while spinning clockwise is 00, 01, 11, 10). If you have a reading of 01, the next reading can ...

– Make your stepper motor applications extremely compact ! – Make sure that you never miss a step again, thanks to the on-board encoder and control algorithm !
