Title: Does anyone have a good Sharp IR module reference chart?
Post by: galannthegreat on February 13, 2009, 11:19:23 PM

I need to know if there is a good reference chart for 10bit analogue values vs. distance for my Sharp GP2D12 module, or if anyone knows of any known values and distances, that would be very helpful for me.

Thanks

Datasheets are good to read

You don't need to use 10 bit with the Sharp IR. The sensor is so noisy that 8 bit and 10 bit would have the same accuracy.
