SparkFun Blocks for Intel® Edison - ADC V20
Introduction
SparkFun’s ADC Block for the Intel Edison allows you to add four channels
of I2C controlled ADC input to your Edison stack. These four channels can
be used as single-ended inputs, or in pairs as differential inputs. A ground
reference is provided for each channel.
The maximum resolution of the converters is 12 bits, or 11 bits bipolar in
differential mode. Step sizes range from 125uV per count to 3mV per count.

Other tutorials that may help you on your Edison adventure include:
• Programming the Edison - This tutorial assumes you are not using
the Arduino IDE, so you’ll want to familiarize yourself with C++
development on the Edison.
• Powering Your Project
