Unlike the MCP3002 that I tried to connect to recently, this is not just an analogue to digital …

I’m still looking for a way of getting analogue input into my Raspberry Pi so I can build an ultrasonic “bat detector”. I looked at this a few days ago, and came away disappointed with the slow speed of all the analogue input devices I could find. I think I may have found an answer. …

As I mentioned a few days ago, I am trying to build an ultrasonic “bat detector”, with the aim of using a Raspberry Pi to record and transpose the inaudible noises given off by bats as they fly around the night sky. I researched the different types of microphones and eventually ordered a pair of …
