1.4.6. Encoder (and Limit Switch) Breakout
The Encoder Breakout makes breaking out the encoder and limit switch pins even easier.
Part Numbers: CTRE_ENC_BRK, 217-4398(vexrobotics.com), am-2633(andymark.com)
The top side of the breakout has the same
data port pinout as the Talon SRX. A
ribbon cable should be used to connect the
Talon SRX to the breakout.
Top side solder pads are broken out for
3.3V, 5V, and Quadrature A and B.
Tip: The selected colors in the diagram
match the cable harness colors for some
U.S. Digital Quadrature Encoders.
Although 5V is used in this example, 3.3V
should be used for 3.3V encoders. Always
check the encoder data sheet for voltage
requirements.
On the bottom side of the breakout are
three ground pads and the two pads for
forward and reverse limit switch inputs.
Although normally open switches are
illustrated, normally closed switches can
also be used.
