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 ...

Few microcontrollers include a DAC. Although you can easily find an inexpensive DAC to control from your microcontroller, you can use unused peripherals instead of adding parts. Fortunately, you can ...

A new 32-bit microcontroller integrates precision analog, LCD driving and voice capabilities to simplify the design of ...

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, ...

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.

This app note shows how even low-cost Philips microcontrollers can use the LPC feature to measure analog signals in servreal different ways. To view the application note, click on the URL below.

One of the great things about the Arduino environment is that it covers a wide variety of hardware with a common interface. Importantly, this isn’t just about language, but also about abstracting away ...

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 ...

Although the CRT has largely disappeared from our everyday lives, there was a decades-long timeframe when this was effectively the only display available. It’s an analog display for an analog world, ...
