Adafruit ANO Rotary Navigation Encoder Breakout PCB
The ANO rotary encoder wheel is a funky user interface element is reminiscent of the original clicking scroll wheel interface on the first iPods.
It's a nifty kit, but the pin-out is a little odd, so Adafruit made a handy breakout board that converts the funky pin set into a straight forward, breadboard-friendly header strip.
This is just the PCB for the ANO encoder, the encoder is NOT included! Pick one up here.
There's no pull-up or pull-down resistors on this PCB, and of course you'll need to solder the encoder onto the breakout. Then use your microcontroller's button and rotary encoder library/hardware support to interface with the pins.
You'll need 7 GPIO total: 5 buttons and 2 rotary encoder pins. There's also two COMmon pins, which you can set to ground or VCC - usually ground so that you can use the microcontroller internal pull-ups for the button/encoders. Note to make their wiring simple, Adafruits example code uses GPIO to the COM's and then sets then to outputs, but you can just wire them directly.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Product Dimensions: 38.0mm x 35.6mm x 1.6mm / 1.5" x 1.4" x 0.1"
Product Weight: 3.9g / 0.1oz
