I will not go into greater detail of the code behind the rotary encoder + arduino experiment, as featured articles and great tutorials are available all over the web. Lab Note: RT & Arduino experiment ...

Rotary encoder decode for Arduino It is amazing how many Arduino programmes for decoding rotary encoders start with something like: “I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of ...

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 ...

Arduino’s GND rail is common to the rotary encoder’s common pin (C) and the cathode of LED 3, while the 5V rail is used to pull-up the data pins (A &B). Arduino’s D9 pin controls LED3.

In addition to controlling the motor and reading the output of the rotary encoder, the Arduino also handles the front panel controls.

DIY enthusiast zine Make offers instructions and a video tutorial on how to construct the rotary knob controller using a PS/2 or USB mouse with scroll wheel.

Continuing his tradition of making bits of wire and scraps of wood work wonders, [HomoFaciens] is back with a unique and clever design for an electromechanical encoder. There are lots of ways to bu… ...

Rotary optical encoders Rotary optical encoders, the most widespread encoder design, consist of an LED light source, light detector, code disc, and signal processor.
