Menessis Posted January 25 Posted January 25 My Cougar specs say 16 bit resolution on x and y and 14 on the throttles. So that's 2 to the power of 16 or 2 x 2 x....16 times right? Which is 65536. I have been tinkering with Arduino's now for a while and was thinking of getting a Leonardo to use for a Huey setup. Full size. So I see here, a library stating it has 16 bit joystick support. OK cool I'm thinking. But the Leonardo says it's 10 bit. So what am I missing here? Do I need an external Analog to Digital Controller add on? Thanks Menessis
No1sonuk Posted January 25 Posted January 25 I'm guessing the library is capable of 16-bit precision if the Arduino ADC is capable. Otherwise, it's only possible to get "16-bits" out of 10 by upscaling.
Menessis Posted January 25 Author Posted January 25 (edited) Ya that's what I am thinking No1....But you can add a 16 bit ADC to the Leonardo (I think). That's what I will look into next. Well that didn't take long.....Check this out:-> Edited January 25 by Menessis 1
No1sonuk Posted January 25 Posted January 25 I'm guessing that's why the library is 16-bit compatible.
