M5Stack M5StickC Mini Encoder HAT

Description

The M5Stack Mini EncoderC HAT is a rotary encoder expansion HAT designed for the M5StickC and M5StickC Plus series. It integrates a rotary AB encoder with a push-button function, making it suitable for compact control input, menu selection, parameter adjustment, and interactive controller projects.

The HAT includes an STM32F030F4P6 MCU, I2C communication at address 0x42, an SK6812-3535 RGB LED, a HY2.0-4P connector, four LEGO-compatible mounting holes, and a built-in 200mAh Li-Po battery. This gives the M5Stack Mini EncoderC HAT rotary input, button input, visual feedback, and portable power support in a small add-on format.

With a 30-count pulse rotary knob, a built-in push button, and M5Stack controller compatibility, the Mini EncoderC HAT is useful for remote lighting adjustment, robotic joint control, and other projects where precise rotary control is needed.
