This patch is for ADC touch screen , generally resistive touch screen will have 4 lines for ADC X+ X- Y+ Y- so , this will cost 2

This patch is for ADC touch screen , generally resistive touch screen will have 4 lines for ADC X+ X- Y+ Y- so , this will cost 2 ADC for my understand , this round robin is just between this 2 ADC , instead of two sensors in one ADC converter. >From top thread , if you want to use over 10 sens

DOH You make a good point...I thought that the GPIO were configurable between analog and digital. as ADC I've found this: not sure if it is right for me thou. I need these sensors to shoot data concurrently, while I think this board, allow only one signal at time, unless you switch input http

Maybe you need more ADC chips . I dont know how to use gpio as as analog reading , As I understand , GPIO only get 2 level input 1 or 0 , and if your analog signal over 2 levels ,how to measure ? Another idea is use TDM switcher , maybe you can find some chip can do switch several ADC input and 1 o

Was wondering how many of the GPIO I can use for analog reading. I have many sensors that output only in analog; so I was wondering if that may work, since the BBB has only 7 Analog IO, while the rest are all digital. If I can't plug more than 7 analog IO, how could I plug in more? Thanks. --
