Luckily, using the mouse scroll wheel encoder with an Arduino Uno proved to be easy after I made a slight modification (see below). Here, JP-A and JP-B are renamed as D11 and D12 respectively. You can ...

Stepper motors are a mainstay in precision control systems, valued for their simple open-loop operation and high torque at ...

How does a stepper motor turn into an encoder? Well, that’s the MacGyver part. We are not big fans of the physical circuit diagrams ... Of course, an Arduino reads the pulses.

First, I built the circuit on a piece of prototyping board (experimenting ... same value for that single button — that’s all! /* * Infrared Decoder/Encoder * Hardware: Arduino Nano & DIY IR Sniffer ...

I needed a rotary encoder — I pulled a cheap one out of one of those “49 boards for Arduino” kits you see around. Not the finest encoder in the land, I’m sure, but it should do the job.

I have to thank one author of a rotary encoder decoder (Ben Buxton). While his code seemed overly complex to my untutored eye, for example creating a new data type, it did show Arduino-novice me two ...

1. This optimised analogue-conditioning circuit can avoid signal distortion caused by nonlinearities, and guarantee an optimum interface between the encoder and ADC. 2. shown is a normalised RC ...
