Hi, everyone! I am developing a fruit-sorter, and this device was controlled by PC. Now, I want to design a microprocessor system to execute it. About hardware, I don't want to change too much, so there is a problem I need to work out--- How to implement communication between AD convertor and my microprocessor system ? Need what kind of technologies? What about hardware? software?
If your ADC works with a PC, it probably has an ISA interface. I heard that ISA bus works very much like a simple microprocessor bus, so connecting it to a microcontroller should not be a problem. If it's PCI bus, you are in trouble, that's all I know. Actually, there is a chance that the third-party company which designed the ADC has some documentation on it. There could be a lot of useful information in it. Regards, Mike
