MCP3008 - 8-Channel 10-Bit ADC With SPI Interface
Add 8 channels of 10-bit analog input to your Raspberry Pi or microcontroller project with this MCP3008 ADC chip. The Pi lacks a built-in analog-to-digital converter, making this chip an essential addition for reading sensors, potentiometers, and other analog devices.
Communication is via SPI, requiring only 4 pins for connection. The chip is easy to wire and well-documented with extensive tutorials available.
Key Features
- 8 Analog Channels – Read up to 8 analog inputs simultaneously
- 10-Bit Resolution – 1024 steps for accurate readings
- SPI Interface – Only 4 pins required for communication
- Wide Voltage Range – 2.7V to 5.5V operation
- 200 ksps Sampling – Fast conversion rate
Ideal For
- Adding analog inputs to Raspberry Pi
- Reading potentiometers and sensors
- Audio and light level monitoring
- Data logging projects
Resources
- MCP3008 Datasheet
- Raspberry Pi Analog to Digital Converters Guide
- Analog Inputs for Raspberry Pi Using the MCP3008
