We designed Qwiic Twist with an indent encoder which gives the user a great ‘clicky’ feel.

Additionally, the encoder has a built in button so the user can select an GUI menu or element by

pressing down on the it. The Qwiic Twist uses a 6mm shaft and works great with our Clear Plastic

Knob listed in the Hookup Accessories below or any other 6mm knob.

We’ve also written an Arduino library for the Qwiic Twist showing off all the different features of the

Twist and for easy interfacing to the breakout including a litany of examples!

that make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm

pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This reduces the amount of required PCB space, and polarized

connections mean you can’t hook it up wrong.
