Add a colourful light-up dial and spin your Raspberry Pi project right round!
This I2C breakout uses its clever Nuvoton microcontroller to let you easily incorporate a digital rotary encoder into your project. It's possible to directly control the RGB LED inside the encoder - meaning it's great for using as an input device which can also show you a colour coded visual status (like a LED lighting controller, or a synth wave generator).
Encoders have a unlimited range of motion and are good for dials that need to spin round continuously - if you'd prefer one that has a start and an end, check out the RGB Potentiometer Breakout.
You can attach it to your Pi's GPIO directly or via a breadboard with the included headers, but it's also compatible with Pimoroni's fancy solderless Breakout Garden, which makes it easy to use several different breakouts at the same time.
Features

Software
RGB Encoder Breakout uses the same Python library as the IO Expander Breakout - this example shows you how to read the encoder and control the lights.
