As the title say’s here is a Gadgeteer module with 2x LS7366 32bit Quadrature counters on a S socket.
Running at 40mhz you can count alot with this wee beastie.
I’m sure you can come up with some creative ideas to use these - personally i’m going to use them on my balance bot…
Chuck those steppers in the bin and use one of these to create accurate servo motors for CNC and choice robots
And before @ Duke asks…yes the driver is already written
You can select 1x, 2x and 4x quadrature counting and have different counts on either channel.

Usual deal - ping me an email if your interested… justin at ingenuitymicro dot com
I do but there are 2 problems, cheapest flights mean sod all miles and you try spending Avios miles with BA on anything like a decent holiday etc.
They treat you like a fart at a royal wedding (smile sweetly and ignore it, it will soon go away).
`Well, you and your encoder are really tired as 2 Billion is quite a large number…but yes it goes to zero and starts counting up again.
On that note if you are counting down when it gets to zero it goes to max and counts down…
