Is it possible to run a mcp3208 and a couple 74hc165 shift registers together on a pro micro?
Or is mmjoy2 restricted to one type at a time?




I'm no expert but perhaps here are some examples I have saved from my Inet travels that may help....

I had issues with my FLCS handle miso and the TLE5010 Chip's Miso (Data) not like each other but Erichos pointed out that I can use any digital pin for Data so I shifted the Hand MISO/DATA to another Pin instead of the one on the ICSP Header and it's now working fine.

Thanx for your answer Kbird
I got a first breadboard setup running with a MCP3208 for the axes, 2 chained 74HC165 for 16 Buttons and a 4x5 Button Matrix for 20 Buttons.

But i seems i have problems with my Encoders.
I use ALPS STEC12E08 encoders (detended with pushbutton).
They respond not how they should.
Turning the encoder slowly theres mostly no response, turing it faster it works but in a very jumpy way.
As i know, there are encoders with different encoder detend modes out there, which maybe have to be processed differently.
Or is the Encoder just fine and it's a problem that the update rate of the shiftregister is to slow?

Heres the specsheet for the STEC12E08 Encoders
