Hi,
I need to acquire the signals (A and B) of four quadrature encoders. The signals have a maximum frequency of about 5kHz and should be read out with about 100 Hz. Is there a device that fulfils these requirements? It seems that a frequency of 5kHz is no problem since e.g. the USB-6008 has a counter for frequencies up to 1 MHz. However, I can't find a simple low-cost device that provides several counters. Does anyone know such a device with 4 or 8 counters?
No other analog or digital channels are necessary, but a USB connection and Matlab support would be ideal.
Thanks in advance.
