Hello, I just digged up this encoder: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10982 that I bought a couple months ago.
I'm trying it with a Teensy 3.1 using the Encoder library via the basic examples.
When I spin the encoder slowly it seems to work great but if I try to spin it moderately fast I get erratic results, for example, instead of getting a continious steam like this:
120
121
122
123
124
I get something like this:
120
121
120
121
122
121
122
123
It will increment and decrement but with duplicates.
I tried another encoder I have, an alps one and that one seems to work flawlessly with the same setup.
So I assume this particular encoder is a piece of junk ?
