Hi,
What is the proper way to connect a 5V rotary optical encoder to a Teensy 3.6? The part in question is a Bourns EM14.
I tried a voltage divider but I need to use 10K resistors otherwise the output of the encoder voltage drops causing me to think that this might not be the proper way. I figure that the encoder is intended to act as a sink, could a single resistor be enough to protect the Teensy pins?
Kind regards,
Gerrit
