Adafruit Ano Rotary Encoder Breakout with I2C and STEMMA QT

Description

The Adafruit ANO Rotary Navigation Encoder to I2C Stemma QT Adapter is an easy-to-use rotary encoder breakout board with an onboard microcontroller running seesaw firmware. This version comes with the rotary encoder pre-soldered, requiring no additional soldering for use.

Features include:

• Rotary encoder with built-in push button
• Breakout with I2C interface for easy connection using Stemma QT compatible cables
• Onboard microcontroller tracks encoder pulses and button states
• Configurable interrupt pin for event detection without polling
• Four solder jumpers to change I2C address
• Compatible with 3 to 5V DC power and logic levels
• Works with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontrollers with I2C

This adapter simplifies connecting the ANO rotary encoder by providing a smart I2C interface that handles the rotary encoding and button presses, saving the incremental value for querying at any time.

Use the Adafruit Arduino seesaw library or their CircuitPython/Python library to integrate with your projects.

Note: This device is intended for hand-rotated mechanical encoders and is not designed for high-speed motor encoders.
