In all but the most pedestrian of cases, you really should consider some form of input protection between your sensors and your computational platform. In my “Beginner’s Guide to Sensor Interfacing ...

With just a few components, you can provide a translated signal from industrial and PLD sensors that connects safely to a microcontroller, with the added bonus of supplying 7.5 mA of regulated power.

These steps are thenrepeated until the reading is correct at the mid and max values. Thisis usually necessary because the gain and offset interact, that is,adjusting ...

PIC, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi: If you can work with these three types of systems, then you can connect with just about anything Microcontrollers (MCUs) can be very handy, but without the ability to ...

Silicon Laboratories is aiming to simplify the task of connecting sensors to its microcontrollers. The interface, called the direct sensor interface technology (DSiT), can be evaluated using a digital ...
