How to connect the MCP3008 Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) to a Raspberry Pi and Arduino

In this episode we take a look at the MCP3008 Analog to Digital Converter IC. With this chip we can add Analog inputs to a Raspberry Pi, or extend the analog ports on an Arduino.

UPDATE: CE0 on the Raspberry PI is pin 24 NOT 22. Ill put updated schematics on GitHub & makersdigest.net.

In this video we cover:
► Physical connection of the MCP3008 to a Raspberry Pi
► Code examples for the Raspberry PI in Python
► Physical connection of the MCP3008 to an Arduino UNO
► Code examples for the Arduino

As promised, all the code used in this video is on Github!
