Rotary encoder vs potentiometer A rotary encoder is a wonderful digital alternative to the old analog potentiometers. Rotary encoders are useful as rotation sensors (or selectors) and look similar to ...
Call it synchronicity, or manually setting a 16-bit number in an Arduino, or how to turn an OLED into a rotary dial... What am I talking about? Well, I was just compiling the blogs pages for the next ...
At the heart of the device is a AD9833 waveform generator; with the Arduino, rotary encoder, and 16×2 LCD providing an interface to control it over SPI.
This design idea details how a standard volume control can be replaced by its solid-state equivalent. Digital potentiometers are often advertised as replacements for rotary volume controls. To ...
We set the potentiometer pin as 0 (A0 on the Arduino Uno board), the CONTROL variable is the voltage that is used to cotrol the led brightness of the speed of the fan.
After becoming frustrated with drift in the potentiometers, he set out to outfit the entire rig with custom-built encoders. [s-ol] designed the rotary-encoder based boards around an FPGA.
