Specifically the "quadrature line driver (Q)" version would work with Kanalog?
Anyone have any experience with it?
Thanks,

Hi Colin,
The Line Driver version should be compatible with the Kanalog Differential inputs.
You should be aware that those are not optical encoders. Capacitive sensors are used with a large amount of interpolation. The result is that they have much less precision and more noise than a traditional optical encoder. In certain applications they may well work fine and are probably more rugged than optical encoders.
See this thread where Andrew included a data
plot of the noise level.
