Using the ADC Block

To use the ADC Block simply attach an Intel Edison to the back of the board or add it to your current stack. Blocks can be stacked without hardware but it leaves the expansion connectors unprotected from mechanical stress.

We have a nice Hardware Pack available that gives enough hardware to secure three blocks and an Edison.

NOTE: The ADC Block does not have console access or a voltage regulator. It is recommended to use a console communication block in conjunction with this block like ones found in the General Guide to Sparkfun Blocks for Intel Edison.
