R: R: R: R: [PD] Arduino

I'll try and test this today, would it work if I connected the same sensor to all the analog ins? I don't have enough space on my board for 8 voltage dividers!

my IR sensors have 3 pins:

• voltage input = RED
• voltage output = white
• ground = black

I just connected:

• all the RED together into the 5v output of arduino
• all the BLACK together in the ground of arduino (just right of the 5v

output)

• every WHITE on a separate arduino analog IN

i don't use any voltage divider.. (maybe i'm very dumb?)

if you use a single sensor then you will get a very low signal going from 0 to 1v instead of 0 to 5v, but you should be able to see something... (you won't see the ghost effect I see on pin 1, 3 and 4)

the better thing would be to use 5 or 6 pots or 5 or 6 sliders
