SIDE 1185. SPEED TEST

Look the speed to present the data in Serial Monitor in both position of the switch... Power supplies with 4,96v and 0,96v.

Have you seen when wheels or any rotating thing look still or even rotating backwards in a movie or video?

I can tray it, but i am not experet in this kind of things. I include soft and schematic in order that You can reproduce it to your covenience with a minimal effort on your part, kmowing that You are very busy...

What I see in this case is that at 1 V aprox, serial Monitor shows the values very fast, but at 5 v aprox, it is very, very slow. In this last case it takes to reproduce 5 digits around 4 o 5 seconds. It is very rare.

From 4,94  V to 5 v it is when it canges to be slow. In other lower values it is fine. It is very difficult to move the pot wheel to appeciate tenths of volt, this is de reason Why I ask you for linear pots, but that is an other subject for the moment.

From 4,94  V to 5 v it is when it canges to be slow.

It looks slow, but it is not slow.
To test is add a timestamp:

Code:

void loop()
{
  valin = analogRead(A5);
  Serial.println( micros() );
  Serial.println(valin);
}

Sometimes in a movie you see the helicopter  blades rotating very slow or even backbards.
This is the same effect.
To avoid this you can add a delay:

Code:


void loop()
{
  valin = analogRead(A5);
  Serial.println(valin);
  delay( 300 );
}

It is very difficult to move the pot wheel to appeciate tenths of volt, this is de reason Why I ask you for linear pots

I explained how to do fine adjustments here:

You can also set exact value in Properties Dialog.

Right, It works, yes. Thanks for your help.

Respet to the pot... right too. Doing it like this is a very good idea!
Sorry, I did not remember this option, it works very well, thanks again. I take notes for  future.
