LEAP#240 Digital Input with Analog Pins
This is a simple demonstration of a tip shared in the Arduino Tips and Tricks email newsletter.
On the Arduino Uno, there are 6 analog pins. While we’d normally use AnalogRead to read A/D values and
AnalogWrite to write PWM, they can also be used as GPIO digital pins.

LEAP#236-9 AudioDSP Effects
The AudioDSP project is a custom DSP shield for Arduino, intended for guitar effects processing. So time to try a few effects:
- Boost is a simple clean boost/volume control
- Distortion is a simple clipping distortion effect
- Crunch is a distortion effect using asymmetrical clipping based on Schetzen formula
- SuperCrunch is a distortion effect using symmetrical clipping based on Schetzen formula

LEAP#235 AudioDSP DIY Shield for Arduino
I wanted to try some digital signal processing on the Arduino/AVR for some time.
This project started a breadboard-build of a circuit based on the pedalSHIELD by electrosmash, just to see if it was even half-way decent.
When that worked out, I put it on protoboard and did a bit more work on the software (refactored the core routines into an AudioDspDriver library).
Along the way I also got the genuine kit from electrosmash.

LEAP#234 CMOS Inverter Oscillator
I found this oscillator circuit used in the
LEAP#182 PowerSupply317Kit.
It is another variation of the basic Schmitt Inverter Waveform Generator pattern, which I tested in
LEAP#022 SchmittOscillator.
But performance … is quite terrible actually. Oscillation is only sustained for a small sweep of the 100kΩ pot.
The waveform is also heavily asymmetric - with a duty cycle at most 25%.
