What is a rotary encoder? A rotary encoder (RT) is a device that you can rotate infinitely. On most rotary encoders, when you rotate them you will feel a bump (known as steps), and most RTs have about ...

“I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of them met my needs, so I have written my own, and here it is”. Well, I looked at all the ...

The difference between a full step or half step Rotary Encoder type is how the data signals of the two pins are generated. It depends on the mechanical construction of the notches and contacts inside ...

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

This Arduino library decodes bidirectional toggle switches (e.g., ALPS SSCM110100) as rotary encoders. It tracks switch toggling triggered by gears or mechanical rotation, determining clockwise (CW) ...

You can use an old rotary telephone dialer in conjunction with your microcontroller to implement all sorts of things; for example, you could use it to enter a series of numbers to unlock a safe. You ...

Rotary encoders are great devices. Monitoring just a few pins you can easily and quickly read in rotation and direction of a user input (as well as many other applications). But as with anything, ...

Adafruit has made an I2C interface for four rotary encoders. It comes in the form of a PCB with four footprints that accept one of the most common rotary encoder forms (Bournes PEC11 horizontal style) ...

Makers, developers and Arduino enthusiasts searching for silent stepper drivers with high resolution encoders which are also Arduino compatible. May be interested in the new range of uStepper S line ...
