The 360° Rotary Encoder Module KY-040 is a highly precise, breadboard-friendly module designed to provide accurate indications of the rotational angle and direction of a knob. This incremental electro-mechanical device converts the angular position or motion of a shaft into digital code, making it an essential component for various applications requiring precise control and measurement. The output from the encoder offers detailed information about the motion of the shaft, which can be further processed by processors or controllers to determine speed, distance, and position.
Perfect for controlling stepper and servo motors, as well as digital potentiometers, this rotary encoder is ideal for robotics, motor control, and other precision applications.
