Rotary encoder on imx6ull?

Dear All, We are planning to use colibri imx6ull for one of our product. We have a rotary encoder(Quadrature encoder) based sensor to read the angle. In am338x there is a separate module for this(eqep module). It would be great if some could point me in the right direction to use and configure the module to read rotary encoder.

Regards, Abhilash

Hi

AFAIK the i.MX 6ULL does have no dedicated IP which could be used to get rotary encoder signals. e.g. it does not have the FlexTimer part as the i.MX 7 has.

The rotary encoder driver using GPIO as described in this answer however should work with i.MX6ULL.
