[Daniel Garcia] sent us a quick tutorial he put together demonstrating how to use an ATmega168 to perform analog to digital conversions. This timely tutorial would make for a nice complimentary ...

The previous blog discussed how makers can select an A/D converter by understanding the application and how manufacturers optimize a part for that role. Now, what happens when an A/D fires up—how ...

Designers of digital systems are familiar with implementing the 'leftovers' of their digital design by using FPGAs and CPLDs to glue together various processors, memories, and standard function ...

With a large screen and micro SD slot, this converter can digitize your old analog footage with needing a computer ...

Analog-to-digital converters, or ADCs, are somewhat monolithic devices for most users, a black box that you ask nicely for the value on its input, and receive a number in return. For most readers, ...
