Re: [AVR-Chat] Apparent non-linear output from ADC

2012-10-26 by David VanHorn

There are a number of possibilities. 10k is not the ideal source impedance, it is the maximum recommended source impedance. Lower is better. The I/O pins on most AVRs can have up to 1uA leakage to VCC or GND. (see above) The internal AREF voltages on the AVRs are not very accurat

Hi Jim, I have an inductor in series with the main 5V supply with a 0.1uF cap either side of the inductor so there is a bypass on Vref. I use this same exact setup with the isolated ADC I also have on the design and any other design I use and it works well. AVcc is fed from the s

Hi all, I have an ATMEGA32 and I am using the ADC to measure the power supply that is connected to the device. Having done a similar thing with other processors, I am stumped by what I am seeing with the AVR device. I have a potential divider on the input so that I can measure up

I am guessing he means by "operating uncaused" that the interrupt is getting interrupted unintentionally by the noise, i.e. what is supposed to cause the interrupt is not what is causing it. Also, yes, I think he means driving a DC motor. If there's a motor involved, there's like
