Hi folks, i'm new here. I have a question. 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?
