Title: A/D converting
Post by: machinegunmax on March 16, 2010, 12:48:10 PM

Hi, I'm fairly new to programming and I have no idea how to initialise the analogue to digital conversion process.  I have connected my inputs to pins which have an a/d converter function.  I am using an atmega168, I am writing the program in C.  If anyone has knows any good tutorials for a/d conversion or knows anywhere which explains what things like ADCMUX, ADCSRA, or prescalers are that would be great.  Any example code will be greatly appreciated.

There is an excellent tutorial about ADC for AVR in avrfeaks.net.

Also try google and don't forget the read the datasheet.
