    Brushless servo resolution

    When driving a brushless servo, what does one step correspond to? From what I understand it means that the rotor goes from one hall sensor to another, so it's got 3*(the number of poles) steps.

    No no, hall sensor for only commutation.

    Resolution depended to shaft encoder.

    My Emerson servos have resolvers with 4096 positions/rev and the Mitsubishis have high res encoders with 131072 pulses/rev.

    I can set up how much they move for each input pulse, when driving them with step/direction commands.
