hi ,

in my project i am using taptile. it gives output in 0-5v
according to weight/force applied on tile. it has three wires one
for vdd, one for gnd and one for output. i am not from electrical
background.so i am not able to decide how to build the circuit and
how to connect the circuit to i/o pin. i read many examples in the
website but i couln't get it. i need data which says that there is
some one on the taptile so that i can send this data to a pc through
serial communication. i wondering whether i need to use a A/D
converter before connecting to basic stamps i/o pin.
so any suggestions plz.
thanks

silpa

    Silpa,

    You need to use an A/D converter, or the RCTIME command. The A/D is more
    accurate, the RCTIME command is cheap and easy.
