Abstract
Electrical actuators are generally applied in the field of robotics used to control speed or position using a numerical controller; digital sensors are then preferred because of their compatibility with the controller. Binary or digital encoders, generally of the optical type, are a good choice, since they provide a position information in a digital form which allows speed calculation by numerical derivation. The aim of this paper is to define the application limits of these digital encoders considering their correct use, taking into account an adequate signal processing but also particular application conditions.
