Rotation & Encoder Sensors

SKU: SF-COM-09117 | Brand: SparkFun

This is a 12-step rotary encoder with a nice ‘clicking’ feel. It’s breadboard friendly, and has a pretty handy select switch (by pushing in on the knob). The encoder is different from a potentiometer in that an enc...

SKU: DF-SEN0230 | Brand: DFRobot

This is an industrial incremental photoelectric rotary encoder with aluminum material, metal shell and stainless steel shaft. It generates AB two-phase orthogonal pulse signal though the rotation of the grating dis...

SKU: AF-377 | Brand: Adafruit

This high-quality 24-pulse rotary encoder features detented rotation with a satisfying click at each step, a built-in push-button switch, and a panel-mount design. It comes with a soft-touch knob with an arrow indicat...

SKU: DF-SEN0116 | Brand: DFRobot

An AB two-phase optical encoder designed for the DFRobot 2WD MiniQ robot chassis. Uses two infrared reflective sensors to generate quadrature pulse waveforms with approximately 90° phase difference, allowing you to de...

SKU: DF-SEN0038 | Brand: DFRobot

The Gravity:TT Motor Encoders Kit provides rotation tracking for TT motors, giving you accurate angular displacement data using a non-contact sensing method. Ideal for robotics projects where you need to measure wheel...

SKU: SF-COM-15141 | Brand: SparkFun

Rotary encoders can be used similarly to potentiometers. The difference being that an encoder has full rotation without limits (It just goes round and round). They output gray code so that you can tell how much and in...

SKU: SF-COM-27883 | Brand: SparkFun

The ENS22S001 is a high-quality mechanical rotary encoder from Cooka, offering 64 pulses per revolution with standard quadrature (A/B) output. Fully sealed and rated IP65, it's built for reliable operation in harsh en...

SKU: SF-COM-27884 | Brand: SparkFun

The CS19D128B is a high-quality magnetic rotary encoder from Cooka, offering smooth, low-friction rotation with 128 pulses per revolution and no detent positions. Pressing the shaft activates a built-in push switch. ...

SKU: SF-COM-15036 | Brand: SparkFun

The Bourns Absolute Encoder is a digital control knob that provides 128 unique results evenly spaced around a full circle. It is designed as a control panel knob but can be adapted for other uses. This can be a good a...

SKU: SF-ROB-12629 | Brand: SparkFun

The DAGU Wheel Encoder Kit is a simple add-on for wheeled robots that measures speed and distance travelled. Each kit includes two neodymium 8-pole magnets with rubber hubs and two hall-effect sensors, providing relia...

SKU: AF-6310 | Brand: Adafruit

This breakout turns the ANO rotary encoder wheel into an easy-to-use I2C input device. The ANO wheel gives you a clicky, scroll-wheel-style interface with a rotary control plus five button switches, without needing to...

SKU: AF-6311 | Brand: Adafruit

This breakout makes the ANO rotary encoder wheel much easier to use in a breadboard or wired prototype. The encoder is a distinctive navigation control, with a clicky scroll-wheel feel reminiscent of early iPod interf...

SKU: AF-6357 | Brand: Adafruit

Add rotational sensing without a mechanical connection using the AS5600 magnetic angle sensor. This breakout can sense a rotating north/south magnetic field up to 3mm away from the chip body, making it useful for fric...

SKU: DF-FIT1036 | Brand: DFRobot

This compact 4015 BLDC motor combines a high-torque outer rotor motor with a factory-integrated AS5600 magnetic encoder, making it a neat motion-control package for robotics and precision motion projects.It is designe...

SKU: AF-6490 | Brand: Adafruit

This breakout carries the TMAG5273 A2, a low-power linear 3D Hall-effect sensor for measuring magnetic fields across the X, Y and Z axes. Its built-in 12-bit ADC provides axis readings over I2C, and there is also an i...
