Rotary Encoder Module Guide

The rotary encoder is a type of position sensor that is used to determine the angular position of a rotating shaft and converts to analog or digital output signals.  In this article, we'll talk about how to wire and set up the module for operation with an Arduino Board.  Wiring  The rotary encoder module operates at 5V and produces an analog or digital output. There are many different types of rotary encoders in the market which are classified by output signals or sensing technology. However, we will be using Rotary Encoder Module, the one we carry in our shop.  Parts Rotary Encoder Module Arduino Uno R3 BreadBoard Jumper...
