Rotary Encoder With Push Button Switch EC11 (5pin-15mm) Green

Description

A rotary encoder, also called a shaft encoder, is an electro-mechanical device that converts the angular position or motion of a shaft or axle to digital output signals. Rotary encoders are used in a wide range of applications that require monitoring or control, or both, of mechanical systems, including industrial controls, robotics, photographic lenses, computer input devices . Features: continuous rotary encoder switchwith built in push button Can be used for data entry as with modern in-car CD players, for volume & on/off control or data selection via LCD display Simple to use with PIC or ATMEL microcontrollers (Arduino like Microcontrollers).
