Hi all, just simple question: I'am using PICAXE 18M2 controller which allows me to do ADC conversion of voltages which has low ADC range above the GND. This is achieved by using VREF- pin. ADC is then doing conversion in range between VREF- and VREF+.
Is it possible to do this also with ATMega AVR ?
My source voltage signal from sensor is offset to approx. +1.6V above GND. Is ATMega suitable for such operation or should I stick with PICAXE ? From ATmega DS I can see there is no such pin VREF- or AGND. In future I would like to migrate from Picaxe to ATmega and I am just checking how feasible migration is.
Thanks a lot.
Peter
