Re: Arduino and kop encoder

Oh, and I thought I'd caution you. There's a maximum read rate on the arduinos. It takes about 100 microseconds to take a reading, so it can read about 10,000 times/second. Since you're reading all 360 values every rotation, you've got a maximum of 27.78 rev/sec, or 1666.67 RPM. Not really sure what you're using it for, but keep that in mind.
