Hello to all ... I have the need to use a rotary encoder, but the interrupt does not support the CHANGE.

How can I do? I currently use this function, recall during the loop:

int8_t read_encoder()
{
  static int8_t enc_states[] = {0,-1,1,0,1,0,0,-1,-1,0,0,1,0,1,-1,0};
  static uint8_t old_AB = 0;
  
  old_AB <<= 2;                   //remember previous state
  old_AB |= (digitalRead(aPin) * 2) + digitalRead(bPin);  //add current state
  delay(100);
  return ( enc_states[( old_AB & 0x0f )]);
}

Read errors often occur when the encoder is turned too quickly.

Is there any way to handle the interrupt when the encoder is rotated?

Thanks for your time. I apologize for my English. :D :D
