Arduino Nano ADC input selection
The maximum ADC sample rate for the '328p, using the default prescaler of 128, is given as roughly 10000 samples per second. Maybe I've missed it, but I can't see whether that is the total rate for ...

How can I create a short (0.5us) electrical pulse (50mV amplitude)
I'm working on a charged particle detector consisting of a plastic scintillator and a SiPM to create an electrical signal and I'm using an arduino with an ADC to detect these pulses.
I'd like to ...

Custom (external) reference voltage for ADC: is there a lower limit?
I'm reading an analogue oxygen sensor (SGX-4OX) with a Nano Every (ATmega4809-based). We're seeing up to about 60mV* in ambient air (it will reduce as we purge with nitrogen), and the ADC is 10-bit. ...

AREF pin on Arduino Uno R3
edit
So then, AREF can only output a voltage when used by the ADC, but not when used by the AC.
That is what I sense all your answers are pointing at, yet none has it black on white. My questions ...

Why does the ADC report 0 in this sketch?
This sketch always reports 0 for the ADC reading.
I think this is going to turn out to be something silly, but I cannot find the source. I've reviewed the sketch ADC lines carefully and they seem ...

ESP32 ADC <-> WiFi issue
I'm using the ESP32's ADC1 (not ADC2, which conflicts with WiFi functionality) to capture some analog data received at IO36 (an ADC1 port).
As soon as I uncomment the WiFi.mode(WIFI_AP_STA) line (even ...

Avoid 1-LSB noise on ADC readings
I have a potentiometer connected to an ADC input of an Arduino Leonardo.
The ADC resolution is 10-bit (0..1024), while I need just 7-bit (0..127).
I use a simple filter to reduce the noise and then a ...

Hysteresis and scaling range
Here I asked about how to add an hysteresis on ADC readings. The answer received was very good and it worked out of the box.
Still I'm having troubles trying to generalize the resample function in ...
