Hardware Overview
How does it work?
Rotary R 2 Click is based on the TLC5925, a low-power 16-channel constant-current LED sink driver from Texas Instruments that, combined with a high-quality rotary encoder from ALPS, the EC12D1564402, allows you to add a precision input knob to your design. The EC12D1564402 incremental rotary encoder is surrounded by a ring of 16 red LEDs where a single rotation is divided into 15 discrete steps (in contrast to a potentiometer, a rotary encoder can be spun around continuously). The driver can control each LED individually, allowing various lighting effects to be programmed. The encoder outputs A and B signals (out of phase to each other) on the two mikroBUS™ lines, alongside the knob push-button
feature, which outputs through the interrupt line. The EC12D1564402 is a 15-pulse incremental rotary encoder with a push button. This encoder has unique mechanical specifications (debouncing time for its internal switches goes down to 2ms), and it can withstand a huge number of switching cycles, up to 30.000. The supporting debouncing circuitry allows contacts to settle before the output is triggered fully. Rotary R 2 Click uses a standard 4-wire SPI serial interface of the TLC5925 LED driver to communicate with the host MCU supporting clock frequency of up to 30MHz. Rotating the encoder, it outputs A and B signals (out of phase to each other) on the two mikroBUS™ lines, ENA and ENB pins of the
mikroBUS™ socket, alongside the push-button contact, which outputs through the SW pin (interrupt line) of the mikroBUS™ socket. Two SN74LVC1T45 single-bit bus transceivers from Texas Instruments are used for logic-level translation. This Click board™ can operate with either 3.3V or 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs can use the communication lines properly. Also, this Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used as a reference for further development.
Features overview
Development board
Nucleo 32 with STM32F031K6 MCU board provides an affordable and flexible platform for experimenting with STM32 microcontrollers in 32-pin packages. Featuring Arduino™ Nano connectivity, it allows easy expansion with specialized shields, while being mbed-enabled for seamless integration with online resources. The
board includes an on-board ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger/programmer, supporting USB reenumeration with three interfaces: Virtual Com port, mass storage, and debug port. It offers a flexible power supply through either USB VBUS or an external source. Additionally, it includes three LEDs (LD1 for USB communication, LD2 for power,
and LD3 as a user LED) and a reset push button. The STM32 Nucleo-32 board is supported by various Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) such as IAR™, Keil®, and GCC-based IDEs like AC6 SW4STM32, making it a versatile tool for developers.

Application Output via Debug Mode
1. Once the code example is loaded, pressing the "DEBUG" button initiates the build process, programs it on the created setup, and enters Debug mode.
2. After the programming is completed, a header with buttons for various actions within the IDE becomes visible. Clicking the green "PLAY" button starts reading the results achieved with the Click board™. The achieved results are displayed in the Application Output tab.

* # Description
* This library contains the API for the Rotary R 2 Click driver
* to control LEDs states and a rotary encoder position readings.
*
* The demo application is composed of two sections :
*
* ## Application Init
* Initialization of SPI module and log UART.
* After the driver init, the app executes a default configuration and turn off all LEDs.
*
* ## Application Task
* This example demonstrates the use of the Rotary R 2 Click board.
* The demo example shows the functionality of a rotary encoder used to control LEDs.
