Trick out your candy bowl with an #Adafruit #HalloWing M4. This animated eye looks pretty realistic and you can use the touch pads to trigger LED animations! Code, build photos and way more info on this project! https://learn.adafruit.com/hallowing-m4-candy-bowl #3DPrinting #Halloween https://youtu.be/gmaii6LJLwc

PCB of the day! Add oodles of analog inputs with an 8-channel ADC πππ§
Many microcontrollers have ADCs these days for reading analog/resistive sensors like potentiometers, thermistors, LDR light sensors, etc., but sometimes you need MOAR! or maybe you're using a single board computer like a Raspberry Pi that has no ADCs at all...the ADS7830 is an affordable 8-channel ADC with I2C interface, so it's easy to include with any platform. There are 2 address pins, so you could have 4 x 8 = 32 total ADC channels with chain-able Stemma QT cables. You can get up to 70 Ksamples per second, but only 8-bits of resolution, so it's suitable for rough sensor measurements. This would be a great way to add a ton of potentiometers to a build, especially if it contained a Raspberry Pi, prototype coming soon!
