Hi, I am using an Arduino Ethernet and never payed attention to the number of bits that come from the ADC until today when my Pachube graph started flat-lining. So I started looking into it and found that my Arduino is only reading a maximum of 1012 bits from the ADC. Not like I need the extra 50mV …

Analog input not allowing full 1024 bits

Ah I see! Yes that makes sense. I am not sure I understand the reason for adding 50 though?
