My current project involves taking the 18-bit output from an MCP3421 and performing some floating point calculations. I spent quite a bit of effort on the sensor side of things to ensure high precision, and I hate the thought of discarding that precision in the PICAXE! My research has uncovered the uM-FPU as a possible solution to my problem.
Anyone mind commenting on their experience with the uM-FPU? Are there any other options I might want to consider?
I started this milliohm meter project as a vehicle for learning more about op-amps, instrumentation, and micro controllers, as well as more advanced electronics techniques in general. My goodness, it sure looks like I picked the perfect project! ;-)
