A/D voltage?

[scottl]

I have a PIC12F675 and a wireless transceiver running at 3.3V. I would like to use this circuit to monitor a sensor that outputs 0-5V.

Can I add a reference voltage of say 4.096V to the PIC12F675 VRef pin and have portA.0 monitor this without any problems?

Thanks for any help!

Voltage input to any pin should never exceed Vcc. You would need a voltage
divider on the analog output of your sensor that limits the max output to
3.3V.

Bruce,

I guess I will use a voltage divider using two 1K resistors which will give me 2.5V at 5V from the sensor. I will lose a little accuracy but I will see how this works.

Thanks for the reply,
