Arduino Modulino Knob

Description

Visit Arduino Modulino® Knob is a ready-to-use interactive module combining a rotary encoder with an integrated pushbutton. It's the ideal physical controller for adjusting parameters, navigating menus or driving user interfaces on your projects.

Precise, tactile interface

This module offers dual interaction: a fluid rotation to modulate values, and a push-button to validate an action or reset a selection. It's perfect for volume control, menu scrolling, or fine-tuning in audio applications or embedded systems.

Easy connection and installation

Its Qwiic connector makes it easy to plug-and-play with compatible Arduino boards or any microcontroller equipped with an I²C bus. It also features solderable pins (GND, 3.3 V, SDA, SCL) for breadboard mounting or custom circuits.

On-board intelligence

The knob integrates a small ARM microcontroller that manages encoder reading and push-button detection. It communicates via I²C as standard, and features a configurable address, enabling several modules to be daisy-chained on the same bus without conflict.

Compact, modular format

With its compact dimensions (approx. 41 × 25 mm) and four mounting holes, the module integrates easily into any project, whether mobile, stationary or educational. Its modular design means that several Modulino elements can be stacked or combined to enrich an experience base.

Software-friendly ecosystem

Ready for use in the Arduino environment, the module benefits from a dedicated library (available for Arduino IDE and MicroPython). Examples are provided to quickly detect rotation (position feedback) and button status, without complex configuration.

Practical, motivating applications

Visit Modulino Knob adapts to a wide range of uses:

• Menu selection intuitive parameter adjustment without a touchscreen.
• DIY remote control control of sound, light or motor speed.
• Inlay user interface robotics, home automation or embedded prototypes.
• Creative applications sound or visual effects depending on rotation.

Seamless integration into educational kits

This module is ideally suited to educational workshops and starter kits, where each element operates independently. It fits easily into interactive trays or modular bases, allowing users to concentrate on programming rather than wiring.

Robustness and durability

Solid, reliable and professionally finished, it's designed for repeated use. The knob and encoder are robust, and the format designed to last, whether in school, DIY or advanced prototype contexts.

Conclusion

Visit Arduino Modulino Knob is a rich and elegant physical interface, ideal for bringing tactile interaction to your Arduino or compatible projects. Simple to connect, feature-rich, modular and durable, it's an essential component for making your creations interactive and intuitive.
