Power Sensing via Power Module to Rasberry PI

HI.

I will be powering a Rasberry PI via a UBEC hanging off the Power Module.

How do you measure battery voltage etc via the Rasberry PI. The available outputs on the Power Module are “V” and “I”.

Any help appreciated.

The voltage/current output of those modules is an analog output. This requires an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to read the value. The raspberry pi does not have any ADC built in. You will need some external adc hardware, or a microcontroller like an arduino.

Awesome Jacob - thanks for the pointer, I will check it out…

Thanks,

This is helpful. Can you let me know more details about the analog signals of the voltage/current outputs.

I’m planning on building a board that includes an ADC between the power module and the Raspberry Pi.
