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 ...

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.

What is a precision analog microcontroller? A precision analog microcontroller combines high-performance analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) with a single-chip ...

A myriad of sophisticated control systems are emerging with demanding requirements for high-speed precision digital and analog performance. Cygnal Integrated Products addresses these demands with a ...

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 ...

Back in the day where the microprocessor was our standard building block, we tended to concentrate on computation and processing of data and not so much on I/O. Simply put there were a lot of things ...

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, ...
