I have a couple of HN-GH12-2413T DC motors for my robot, I was thinking to buy encoder and I don't know really what type of motors should I buy and how to connect them to my robot.
Can you recommend anything that fits these motors?
Would anyone be interested in giving me a little help with making a circuit for the AS5048B. I'm just about to do a home print of circuit board for the AS5040 so I could do it at the same time. Id be aiming at setting up the as5048b to use with I2c. My feeling is there are a lot of scattered projects for the magnetic encoders so Ill be documenting the process and making a tutorial from it.
Wow wasn't sure if I would even get a response seeing as the thread had been silent for a while.
CrossRoads Ive already got a board layout that id like to adapt from the magnetic rotary encoder v2.1 http://wiki.makerbot.com/mre2 (but im not yet bound to this)
Im good at the mechanical side of putting things together with a steady hand but pretty slow in figuring out if a circuit is any good. It would be great if that same layout works probably with different cap/resistor values or maybe I can get away with it like it is just that I have no idea really. The files are all on the google code page for the version 2.1 perhaps they are easy enough to edit for the as5048b.
What I find really nice about this board is that it can be programmed using the i2c. ideally Id be looking at setting it up with the option to daisy chain it for a robotic arm/leg positions to drive rather hefty motors. id also be using them for my robot gimbals like the following video. But Id also like to try one the 4th axis of my milling machine. http://adamdonovan.net/works/soundlens%20Adam%20Donovan.html
