Connect the ADC to the junction of the Cap and the resistor. Then the audio signal will be summed with Vcc/2 and give you +/- 511 counts on your ADC results after subtracting 512. As long as your audio input doesn't exceed +/- VCC/2 you won't clip. -----Original Message----- From

You can speed up the ADC by specifying a small clock divisor. The default is around 64 or 128, but you can specify 8x or even 4x and get much faster conversions. The accuracy will suffer, but, so what. With a 4mhz clock and a clk/4 ADC clock, each conversion will take 13 us for a
