Arduino constant clock output
I am controlling an ADC with my Arduino Uno. I would like the clock of the ADC to be the same frequency of the Arduino.
Is there any way that I can have a constant clock output from one of the Arduino ...

How to keep accurate millis() while using ADC_sleep mode?
millis() uses timer0 (linked to CPU clock) to count time, but ADC_sleep mode stops the CPU clock, therefore millis() will drift (lag behind) after each ADC conversion performed in ADC_sleep mode.

ESP8266: system_adc_read_fast() always give 1024 as output
I need to use system_adc_read_fast (uint16 *adc_addr, uint16 adc_num, uint8 adc_clk_div) to get a sampling rate close to 100ksps. And I am able to achieve that using adc_clk_div = 32.
However, when I ...

Can I connect a voltage, higher that the 1.1V bandgap voltage, to an ADC pin
Can I (attempt to) measure a voltage that is higher that the ADCs Vref, without damaging my IC?
I'm trying to measure the battery voltage using a resistive divider, and using the internal 1.1V ...

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 ...

Measure Vcc using 1.1V bandgap
For an battery driven application I want to measure the Vcc (using an Atmega 32u4). That is my code:
int readBandGap() {
ADMUX = (B01 << REFS0) // VCC
| (0 << ADLAR) // ...
