The heaviest price speculation has been around the high-end, 18-karat gold Apple Watch (dubbed âApple Watch Editionâ).
The data distributor, known more commonly as a Demultiplexer or âDemuxâ for short, is the exact opposite of the Multiplexer we saw in the previous tutorial. The demultiplexer takes one single input data line and then switches it to any one of a number of individual output lines one at a time.
Transducers (such as optical or magnetic encoders) sense position or orientation for use as a reference or active feedback to control position: A rotary encoder converts rotary position to an analog (e.g., analog quadrature) or digital (e.g., digital quadrature, 32-bit parallel, or USB) electronic signal. A linear encoder similarly converts linear position to an electronic signal. Such encoders can be either absolute or incremental.
