#ADC

How to squeeze more bits of those physically available from an Analog to Digital Converter? #Microcontrollers such as the ATmega328 on Arduino boards often are equipped with an #ADC, but usually the on board ADC has a limited resolution.
For example the one available on the Mega32A or the Mega328 has 10 bits, which is not bad but it could be a problem if you want more precision.

In this presentation I show how Analog to Digital Converters work, what is the technique known as Oversampling and Decimation, what are the trade-offs, and a practical example that I made on a board similat to an #Arduino Nano and a network display.
It is a combination of electronics and computer engineering.

Complementary information, code and a web-app simulator is also available on my website.
