Hi everyone

  • I want to measure a small voltage of 10mv-50mv of a sine wave.
  • Can i use Internal adc of nucleo board ? what is the lowest voltage i can measure using internal adc.

Hi,

You will get scaled down values. Only you can decide if they are any good for your application...

The math behind ADC isn't difficult, start there.

To get the maximum out of an ADC, you need to get a solid understanding of Sampling Theorem...

Kind regards

Hi,

Is 10mV-50mV peak-to-peak, peak, average, RMS?

What resolution (how many bits) do you need?

Kind regards
Pedro

  • Its peak to peak
  • 12 or 16 bit

Hi,

You'll have to lower your expectations. If you can get the +REF down to 1.7V, you may get 5-6 bits...

I hope that helps.

Kind regards
