I'm using this in an old 1938 Philco radio I've converted to a juke box. It plays old mp3 files from the 1930's. I'm using it with a Raspberry Pi Zero. I use this to read a pot set up to look like a radio tuning dial. Just connect power, ground, and the tap from the pot. Connect the I2C lines to the Raspberry PI and off you go. I use another pot for a volume control. At first I was confused because the volume was not linear. I had to turn the pot about half way before the volume changed. Then I realized the pot was a "linear taper". But the ADC was doing just what it should. It was easy to program and read the values with the available python libraries. Very easy to use.

I love this little board. You don’t have to use all its features to appreciate it.You can hook up to 4 of them on an I2C bus. I ended up running mine at 3.3V out of paranoia to ensure the data and clock signal never exceeds the raspberry pi’s voltage threshold.It has many modes to take individual measurements or comparison measurements, including hardware triggers to take measurements.Internally it is taking samples in the gHz range and averages them to the sample frequency size you set it to take. The programmable gain is very useful if you overscale your voltage divider to protect your circuit.Internally it uses one Analog to Digital Converter but uses a multiplexer (MUX) to switch or connect the 4 measuring pins to it. This ensures consistency in all measurements. However, you can’t read all pins continuously if you want to use the fastest continuous measurement mode reading registers for latest results. You can easily switch to measure other pins but will need to kick off your continuous sample mode when done. Alternatively, you can get 2 boards set different addresses and kick off both in continuous mode.Single samples are plenty fast and do save power. However, I am regulating current and voltage to exact decimal points in real time and can change dynamically

I used two of these in my project of a wifi-controlled-soundbar for reading lit-LED voltage where it was using a specific setup i.e. easily solderable test points for LED ON were 2.5V and OFF were 3.3V. Works fine, I'm not sampling nearly fast enough to even use half of its speed, however I have to substract one star for a bit disappointing interrupt mode where you can only set a single interrupt on a single channel at any given time and then you have to read the value. I'd have hoped to be able to have interrupts on all 4... Oh well! Still very solid, many libraries are ready to use with your project so integration was painless. Can recommend

So this is an excellent board; (I have several) but one of the boards that I have came with the ADC chip not correctly aligned, thus the two middle AI inputs do not work.Also, this is a knockoff of the Adafruit board, and if you use the Adafruit library, the AI inputs are backwards. I've verified that the Adafruit boards are indeed correct which means that this board has a mistake in it. The inputs work, but they are reversed from the silkscreen labels.-- UPDATE:Seller reached out and offered a replacement or refund without me asking. They also indicated that they will try to update the backwards silkscreen on the board. I updated my review to reflect great customer service.
