Many microcontrollers have built-in ADCs (analog-to-digital converters), which means you can use a single device to both digitize analog signals and manipulate the results. Once the ADC digitizes a ...

Microchip heeft een nieuwe serie microcontrollers aangekondigd, de PIC24FJ128GC010. Bij deze serie is een volledige analoge signaalketen op de chip geïntegreerd, waaronder Microchips allereerste ...

Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are used in a wide range of electronic devices. However, most of the low-cost microcontrollers do not include an ADC peripheral. This design idea provides a way to ...

In portable and space-constrained systems designers have the option to use microcontrollers with integrated analogue-to-digital converters (ADCs) or lower resolution ADCs with preamplifier circuitry.

The quality of analogue peripherals on microcontrollers has risen constantly. It allows for better integration and more compact switching solutions. Performing measurements with utility meters, ...

Texas Instrument's 25MHz MSP430F6736 sports three 24-bit Sigma-Delta ADCs and a fast, 8-channel SAR ADC. Texas Instruments MSP430 is one of the most popular 16-bit microcontrollers. Its low power and ...

A new family of microcontrollers (MCUs) —the PIC24FJ128GC010 -- is an analog system on chip that integrates an on-chip precision 16-bit ADC and 10 Msps 12-bit ADC, plus a DAC and dual operational ...

We often need to check the range and linearity of a microcontroller’s (MCU) ADC converter. This circuit is a low-noise-adjustable voltage source. It must be accompanied by an accurate digital ...
