Hi,


I think Sigma Delta function is not suported by SX micros.

Perhaps you will need to use other micros.

Do you have more informatiomn?

    The SX's use Sigma-Delta to do their analog to digital and digital to analog conversions. The Propeller uses Sigma-Delta as well for the same purpose.

    Joe,

    I am not sure what you mean by sigma delta. Are you asking if the SX can perform a sigma delta A/D conversion? This requires a comparator and an integrating D/A converter. The SX48 has a comparator, and the integrating D/A converter could be made from an output pin and an RC circuit.

    Hi , Dave

    I think that SX could help , but I can not find information
    about sigma delta using SX micros.

    For this reason I am looking for PDFs.


    If you know about how can I use a SX micro and use
    Sigma Delta please tell me where can I find the PDFs.

    ( My english is not good, sorry)

    Thanks, Joe

    Joe,
    Are you wanting to do analog to digital conversion ? If yes, then look at this web page:

    Hello Joe;

    Also look at the Parallax website under SX Chips and Tools; the Download section has lots of good app notes, and the sigma delta A/D application is covered there.

    Cheers,
