Is the 3.3 V for the 10-bit ADC on the Mayfly a value that is fixed, or can it be changed? I don’t know if this is related or not, but does the ADC voltage come from the default analog reference
Is the 3.3 V for the 10-bit ADC on the Mayfly a value that is fixed, or can it be changed? I don’t know if this is related or not, but does the ADC voltage come from the default analog reference, or is it completely different? Could the analog reference voltage be lowered, using the analogReference() function, giving us a higher resolution as a smaller voltage is spread over the same amount of bits? Again, I don’t know if that is what the ADC voltage is tied to, but it is something that was brought to my attention, and I wanted to see if that’s a possibility or not.
