Analog to digital converter IC MCP3201 SOP8 package

The Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) is an electronic circuit that converts continuous analog signals into discrete digital data. The MCP3201 IC is one of the analog to digital converters with a 12-bit resolution. This 8-pin IC features an ADC conversion circuit, meaning it performs the conversion operation in a single channel. It communicates with other circuits via the SPI protocol and can sample up to 100 kilohertz. The power consumption of this IC is very low, operating within a voltage range of 2.7 to 5 volts. The application of converting analog signals to digital is in measuring the output of analog sensors, measuring voltage levels, and processing any analog signal by digital systems
