While I am reading and collecting information about rotary encoders , I faced some troubles about the meaning of some expressions concerned with encoder ,which make me to be confused and stray, these expressions or words are :
-Count per revolution (rotation)
-Pulse per revolution
-Tick per revolution
-Transitions per revolutions
-Number of transitions
-Number of state changes
I thought the transition is same as state changes which means change from high to low or low to high , but what about the others what is the diffenece among them (count , tick ,pulse ,transition .... etc)? and what the relationship between transitions and pulse ? Could anyone clarify that , please
