13. Analog to Digital Conversion

Before we discuss any sensor topic, it is important to first discuss the analog-to-digital converter (ADC). On the ATMega128, there are 8 channels of ADCs, each channel has a resolution of 10 bits.

Due to the flexibility of the ADC component, we cannot cover all possible configurations in this chapter. However, we can cover enough so that we can make this discussion directly applicable in following chapters.
