Super Circuit Maker: 8-bit ADC With Binary Parallel Output (MC 1.10.2)
45Going deeper into the chip-on-chip use in Super Circuit Maker and how to utilize them to make a design more compact. In this video I'll build an Analog to Digital converter that takes a Redstone input and converts it to a 8-bit binary parallel output.
I could have made a generic guide for the signal handling instead, but it's more fun and easier to understand the topic with a real and (kind of) useful application - such as the ADC.
Link to the final product:

These are the input and output values in this design, since every redstone level step is 17 for the "analog" level we won't get a 256 numbers long table. But if the input comes from a different source (perhaps from another circuit) you could have more input values.
Redstone Level

This build was inspired from the discussion in this thread:

I never tried the links in the thread, but I guess my design works in a similar way.
