[sdiy] Incremental encoder to up / down counter or pots and an ADC

+1 agree. This is a classic microcontroller job.

JP, what do you mean that these non-threaded shafts "get loose over time"? A non-threaded shaft is never going to be tight in the first place, is it? As long as the hole that that the encoder goes through is a nice tight fit, I don't see a particular problem (assuming the PCB is well supported). So what am I missing?

Thanks,
Tom
