# EQEP Module

The enhanced quadrature encoder pulse (eQEP) API provides a set of functions to configure an interface to an encoder. The functions provide the ability to configure the device’s eQEP module to properly decode incoming pulse signals, to configure module outputs, and to get direction, position, and speed information. There are also APIs to setup the possible interrupt events that the module can generate.
