ADC voltage

Post by wardnica »

I'm trying to measure a voltage that my anemometer transmits with my 16F690, (voltage range between 0 - 5 V.)

(flowcode 4)

Hello,

You should just be able to use the ADC component to sample and read back the voltage.

Your Vin variable is a Byte.

Try creating a float variable and then use this to collect the voltage. Once you have done this you should be able to convert the float to a byte correctly.
