Measurement Computing's PCI-QUAD04 is a PCI plug-in board that provides inputs and decoding for up to four incremental quadrature encoders. The PCI-QUAD04 can also be used as a high speed pulse counter for general counting applications.

Incremental quadrature encoders are used to provide feedback signals from motors, that is, to count rotations and convert the physical movement into a series of electrical signals. These signals are sent to the computer which then decides whether or not to trigger signals that control the motor?s movement and what those control signals should be. The PCI-QUAD04 is the link between up to four incremental quadrature encoders and the computer.
