I would be interested in this as well as code for the GP2DO2 and GP2DO5. Thanks, Brice ----- Original Message ----- From: Ron A.

Before I reinvent the wheel - is anyone using this combination ? If so do you have a software routine to normalize the output from the BX24's 10 bit A/D to make the GP2D12's output linear ? I don't care if its calibrated in inches or centimeters. Thank you Ron A. Nucci [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

there was one for this. I made a printout of it. and of course it is at home. I'll sent you the formula after work today. (after 6:30) --- "Ron A.

after searching through all the papers on my desk I have finaly found the posting that I had saved. from Alex Brown distance = k / voltage where k, of cource, depends on the output of your paticular A/D converter. for my 68HC912 the equation is: distance (in inches)= 686/(atd output)+.5 where .5 is a minor fudge factor to account for a small offset in the data. --- Tony Brenke <> wrote: > there was one for this. > I made a printout of it. > > and of course it is at home. > I'll sent you the formula after work today.
