P-Style profile-version Micropulse magnetostrictive linear positioning transducers are available with on-request absolute quadrature output, giving designers a more rugged and reliable option to glass scales, potentiometers and LVDTs. Unlike ordinary incremental encoders with external "homing" switch, the Micropulse's P-Style absolute quadrature output features a remotely triggered "Burst Mode" that rapidly delivers an accumulated pulse string to provide absolute position feedback upon request.
