how to read ky40 mechanical encoder ?

[richard]

post the code you are trying , and a bit of info about your re setup .

does it have detents ?
how many edges per turn ?
pull ups ?
filter caps ?
pic type ?
pins used ?

still not able to make my panel encoder working

is not much to work with

[iw2fvo]

Thanks for the assistance.
My encoder has detents and has about 24 edges per turn.
I used a pull up of 2x 10 k on both encoder phases and a 2x 0.1uF to ground.
I am using pic18f452 , xtal=10 Mhz, ppl X 4 to get 40 Mhz clock speed.
I used RB0 for the "A" phase as shown on the code.
At the end of the world I am now able to make it working well using the following picbasic program by including Darrel Taylor interrupt routine.
The program prints counter results on a terminal @ 115200 baud rate 8,n,1.
Regards, Ambro

sorry for not having paste the complete code...

I found that strategy gave quite disappointing results , was jerky missed counts and had sudden and unexpected direction reversals. there are better ways

I am sorry Richar for having posted the file that is not the final one:
please change the following:

A VAR PORTD.0 ' encoder A PHASE
shAll be:
A VAR PORTB.0

This is the interrupt input !

I would be happy to know ...
Thanks and regards,
Ambrogio

I did capture the output of the terminal printout for a better check.
There are about 200 changes of the cnt obtained by "manually" turning the encoder knob on my control panel. Probably sometims cw and ccw.
I noted very few spikes : I am not shure if they are due to the time required for the serial port output or to the encoder software.
Any improvement to the program is very much appreciated.
I am really searching for a good solution.
Thanks

Ambrogio

I do it this way

enc pins must be sequential and on same port
both enc pins must be able to generate an interrupt (ioc on neg and pos edge is best , ioc, rac,rbc on neg or pos edge will work as will int0 int1)
enc pins must be pulled up (10k) and have 0.1uF filter caps

I have an asm version that's 100 bytes smaller and has about 1 tenth of the irq latency and is much faster too

Thanks Richard for the code.
I am just a little bit busy on these days and so I plan to try your code on next days.
As you have seen I am using pic18f452: Is your code applicable to this micro ?
If no, what should I modify or adapt ?
Thanks
Regards,
Ambrogio
