Using DC Tachometer Generators

From Servo-Tek Products, Inc.

The current thinking in motion control these days is . Computer generated movement routines, encoder feedback, PWM amplifiers, stepper motors, etc. Digital technology has brought many good things to motion control. But sometimes the old ways are better. If you are working with a motor controller that will accept analog
