For practical purposes they're fine -- in closed loop it's enough to see
that the voltage readings jump all over the place above and below half a
volt; and if you're running open loop and watching the sensor output it
doesn't change very rapidly most of the time.

If you really want to see the semi-square-wave of a sensor running in
closed-loop, you need a scope.
