A simple quadrature encoder interface (qei) project

Can anyone supply me (point me to) a basic QEI project (Keil or IAR). I have found lots of references and inclusions in other projects, but not have been able to construct a simple project that can return the encoder position from the LPC1768 QEI interface. I am not looking for a high speed decode, as for BLDC motor control, just the ability to return the position of a rotary encoder.

I have found the lpc17xx_qei.c and lpc17xx_qei.h files, but could not make a project from them because of missing references.

Bit of a novice, sorry.

Thanks

Thanks for the pointers, guys. I have made the cmsis stuff work eventually. I could get no position return because the maxposition value for the the interface was set at 0. Took some finding. 0:)

Hi cybersteve,
LPC1500 uses same encoder inteface as LPC1700. Please have a look at below code example

The CMSIS example is only for velocity - I have found no way of returning position.

There's an old example in lpc17xx.cmsis.driver.library.zip:
