EC11 Rotary Encoder Manufacturer with Push-Button Switch, Incremental Pulse Knob, Digital Potentiometer factory
Description
The EC11 Rotary Encoder is a high-performance incremental pulse knob digital potentiometer integrated with a push-button switch, designed for precise human-machine interaction in electronic devices. As a classic contact-type incremental encoder, it outputs two square wave pulse signals with a 90° phase difference (Phase A and Phase B) during 360° unlimited rotation, allowing the connected microcontroller to accurately identify rotation direction, speed and position. The integrated independent push-button function adds one-click confirmation and selection operations, which greatly expands the control scenarios for end products. This series of encoders supports customized parameters such as pulse counts, positioning points, shaft types and operating torque, and is widely recognized in the industry for its stable signal output, long service life and compact structure, making it a cost-effective core component for parameter adjustment and menu navigation.
Specification
Product Features
. 360° unlimited free rotation with no dead stop points, supporting 20/24/30 optional pulses per revolution, each gear delivers clear tactile feedback for precise and smooth adjustment operations
. Integrated independent silent push-button switch, which can realize one-click confirmation, function switching and other operations, eliminating the need for additional separate buttons to save board space
. Wide operating voltage range of DC 3.3V-5V, perfectly compatible with common embedded systems such as STM32, Arduino and other mainstream microcontroller platforms
. Excellent mechanical and electrical durability: rotation life reaches more than 30,000 cycles, push-button service life can be customized up to 50,000 cycles, maintaining stable signal output after long-term use
. Ultra-wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, with good dust-proof and sealing performance, adapting to harsh working environments of different industrial and consumer electronic products
. Multiple customizable options: various shaft types (half-shaft, plum blossom shaft, etc.), shaft lengths, operating torque and switch actuation force are available to meet the personalized assembly and hand-feel requirements of different products
Standard 5-pin pin definition, with built-in stable contact structure, signal bounce is small, which can effectively reduce the difficulty of software de-jitter processing for developers
