> 3 dayLearned this the hard way - Not always reliable on 5V. We use a lot of these, and we always do 12V nowadays. The nice part though, is that the output is (well...cant actually promise this) is open collector, so you can use a pull-up resistor to your controllers voltage, which might be 5V, and run your inputs like that while still powering it by 12V. Check your individual encoder though, because only god knows how the PCB inside is configured, or you..if you open it or measure the outputs on a meter.

> 3 dayThis is a very nice rotary encoder. I purchased this, along with a beautiful machined aluminum knob, for a hobby project. For quick breadboard projects it is not as convenient as a cheap rotary encoder you can plug into a breadboard, but the feel of this encoder makes it well worth the slight inconvenience. I have used it for Arduino and FPGA projects and will always use this rotary encoder over the cheap ones.

> 3 dayThis thing has no business being this good at this price. Smooth operation - 1440 pules per rev in standard quadrature configuration (2 phase). M3-.5 screws fit the mounting flange. Im feeding this thing 5 volts straight from USB, two encoders and a Teensy board drawing just .3 watts - whats to complain about.
