Greetings from S. Korea to all the ARDUINO Engineers here in the forum.
I have recently found out that using AnalogRead function without resistors allowed me to read
'electric potential', or open-circuit voltage of the objects that are in parallel with one another.
Correct me if I am misunderstanding the whole thing but I would like to seek for knowledge, if my
ARDUINO is actually reading static voltage.
- My materials in parallel with one another can produce upto 200V with approximately 100uA,
is there a way to read above 5V with ARDUINO pins? (A0~A6). This is a triboelectric generator.
- I am afraid to use any other components within the circuit (i.e. resistors, capacitance, coils, etc.),
since it is likely to cause my ARDUINO to read closed circuit voltage instead of OC. Am I
understanding this correctly?
p.s. I am using a simple AnalogRead function provided by ARDUINO playground, no particular
modification of the codes have been made yet, but I am likely to use 6 pins later on.
