Resolvers are often used with brushless motors as they provide commutation information. Resolvers are less used nowadays that high resolution serial absolute encoders are available, but still the sensor of choice when ruggedness or wide temperture range is important. > > > ------Original Mail------ > From: "Billy Huddleston" <bi...@ivdc.com> > To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" <emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net> > Sent: Wed, 29 Oct 2014 13:36:16 -0400 > Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Lathe conversion with Mesa 5i25 / 7i76 > > Umm..
