Re: Bizzare Quaderature Behavior
sounds like toast :c(

do you have a spec sheet for them? are you sure they are designed to run at 5VDC? LEDs normally need a series resistor to limit current, but also, when they are blown they dont work at all

blinking is weird. are you sure its not your power supply that is switching on and off? can you meter the power pins to the encoder? maybe you have a breaker cycling or something weird?
