Technical jargon helps engineers to differentiate betwen engineers and normal people. One great way that heps us do this is to use really obscure terminology. Preferably, the terminology should feature different words to mean basically the same thing. A great example - sensor, transducer, encoder, transmitter, detector, measuring thingy.....you get the picture. In a spirit of reaching out to engineers that don't know everything, we have published this white paper which describes the differences...

or freezes inside the encoder. Why do contaminants (dirt, oil, water …) cause optical encoder failure, and not magnetic encoder failure?. Optical encoders need to see tiny lines on a disk accurately; they make errors when there is any type of contamination on the disk. Magnetic encoders do not make errors due to contamination. Many optical encoders manufacturers attempt to reduce the causes of optical encoder failure and resulting sensor crashes by controlling the gap between the optical...
