- Debounce handling with support for high rotation speeds
- Correctly handles direction changes mid-step
- Checks for valid state changes for more robust counting / noise immunity
- Interrupt based or polling in loop()
- Counts full-steps (default) or half-steps
The following is the typical sequence of code on the output when moving from one step to the next:
Position Bit 1 Bit 2
----------------------
Step 1 0 0
1/4 1 0
1/2 1 1
3/4 0 1
Step 2 0 0
- From an initial 0 - 0, Bit 1 goes high, Bit 2 stays low
- Then both bits are high, halfway through the step
- Then Bit 1 goes low, but Bit 2 stays high
- Finally at the end of the step, both bits return to 0
