Chapter 26: LPC176x/5x Quadrature Encoder Interface (QEI)
26.5 Pin description
[1] The Quadrature Encoder Interface uses the same pin functions as the Motor Control PWM feedback inputs
and are connected when the Motor Control PWM function is selected on these pins. If used as part of motor
control, the QEI is an alternative to feedback directly to the MCPWM.
