For all you analog heads out there that refuse to sell out to digital!
Thought I'd share a pretty cool device I found call the Sine-Cosine Hallpot Resolver. Just feed it +5V and you get a perfect sine/cosine output.
Expensive little guy but built really well. There are no internal contacts to wear out, just a magnet and a couple coils of wire.
These are available at hallpot.com!
enjoy!
