Playing with analog to digital converter on Arduino Due

Playing with analog-to-digital converter on Arduino Due

Today I’m going to present some of more advanced capabilities of ADC built in ATSAM3X8E – the heart of Arduino Due. I like the Arduino platform. It makes using complex microcontrollers much simpler and faster. Lets take for example the analog-to-digital converter. To configure it even on Atmega328 (Arduino Uno/Duemilanove) you must understand and set

Getting more I O pins on ATTiny with Shift Registers

Getting more I/O pins on ATTiny with Shift Registers

If you previously worked(or currently working) with small 8-bit microcontrollers, like ATTiny or PIC12, you’ve probably encountered a fundamental problem of not having enough GPIO pins for your needs or project requirements. Upgrading to a larger MCU is only one of the options, but as usual there is an alternative. In this article I will
