Googling L290 with Counter or Quadrature doesn't yield anything. Got any more details? I have an LS7266R1 which is a 24 bit dual axis quadrature interface and 3 LS7066 from an old project used to track drilling rig heave on floating platforms. We'd track the distance to a weight on the ocean floor by counting revolutions of the pulley wheel and the distance the drill string was lowered by the encoder on the drill string cable. The difference between the two counts was used to adjust the drill string cable so the weight on the drill was maintained regardless of ocean conditions. Boy that was a long time ago...
