With a resolution of 10mV, this Dual Slope Analog to Digital Converter/Digital Volt Meter can read the same as an EC voltmeter component! IMPORTANT: If you adjust the time scale, be careful that the counters don't glitch out. ALSO IMPORTANT: The voltmeter only takes ONE measurement! Because I'm aiming for speed and simplicity, I didn't want to complicate things by adding reset circuitry. Perhaps I'll come back later and add one. But for now, if you want to take another measurement, you have to reset the simulation. For a more in-depth explanation on the mechanics, check into my first Dual Slope Integrating Type digital voltmeter here. https://everycircuit.com/circuit/6675184624599040 I can use the hacked undetermined frequency clock again. Because of the two slopes method, the exact frequency doesn't contribute to the output number, as long as it's consistent through the integration process. Specifications: Sample rate: One shot Theoretical range: 0.00V to 9.99V Accuracy: 10mV Error: ~20mV Output Number = Vin × reset number / Vref If input is 5.37V, then 5.37V × 1000 / 10V = 537 Blue waveform: Unknown voltage input Green waveform: Dual slope integration signal Orange waveform: Done signal (active high) Prev circuit: https://everycircuit.com/circuit/5094936040701952 Next circuit https://everycircuit.com/circuit/4912436234420224
