Opto Encoder 4 Click is a compact add-on board that contains an optical sensor/encoder that can be used for movement or rotation encoding. This board features the EE-SX4330, a transmissive photo-microsensor from OMRON. It is intended to be used with an encoder disk or similar device that will act as a barrier between the emitter and detector of the sensor. Usually, it will be the disk with perforations, which is commonly used to detect the rotation speed.

Click library

  • Author : Stefan Filipovic
  • Date : Nov 2023.
  • Type : GPIO type

Software Support

We provide a library for the Opto Encoder 4 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for Opto Encoder 4 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

  • optoencoder4_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

    void optoencoder4_cfg_setup ( optoencoder4_cfg_t *cfg );
  • optoencoder4_init Initialization function.

    err_t optoencoder4_init ( optoencoder4_t *ctx, optoencoder4_cfg_t *cfg );

Example key functions :

  • optoencoder4_get_out_pin This function returns the output pin logic state.

    uint8_t optoencoder4_get_out_pin ( optoencoder4_t *ctx );
  • optoencoder4_get_our_pin This function returns the output pin reversed logic state.

    uint8_t optoencoder4_get_our_pin ( optoencoder4_t *ctx );

Example Description

This example demonstrates the use of Opto Encoder 4 Click board by processing the encoder output pin state and incrementing the step counter on falling edge.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializes the driver and logger.


void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    optoencoder4_cfg_t optoencoder4_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    optoencoder4_cfg_setup( &optoencoder4_cfg );
    OPTOENCODER4_MAP_MIKROBUS( optoencoder4_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    if ( DIGITAL_OUT_UNSUPPORTED_PIN == optoencoder4_init( &optoencoder4, &optoencoder4_cfg ) ) 
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }

    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

Increments the step counter on falling edge of the encoder output pin state and displays it on the USB UART.

void application_task ( void )
{
    static uint32_t step_cnt = 0;

    log_printf( &logger, " Step counter : %lu\r\n", step_cnt );

    // Increment counter on falling edge of output pin
    while ( !optoencoder4_get_out_pin ( &optoencoder4 ) );
    while ( optoencoder4_get_out_pin ( &optoencoder4 ) );

    step_cnt++;
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.OptoEncoder4

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
