Rotary Incremental vs. Rotary Absolute Encoders

Rotary encoders come in two main types: absolute and incremental.

• Absolute encoders assign a unique code to every shaft position, so the exact position is known immediately at power-up—no homing or reference moves required.
• Incremental encoders generate repeating
