This version comes with the encoder pre-soldered in! There are no pull-up or pull-down resistors on this PCB. Use your microcontroller's button and rotary encoder library/hardware support to interface with the pins. You'll need 7 GPIO total: 5 buttons and 2 rotary encoder pins.

There are also two COMmon pins, which you can set to ground or VCC - usually ground so that you can use the microcontroller internal pull-ups for the button/encoders. Note to make our wiring simple, our example code uses GPIO to the COM's and then sets them to outputs, but you can just wire them directly.
