And it will jump in large "steps" so there isn't
realy more resolution, just more work for the
binary -> ASCII conversion routine.

The question is, is a 1 mV resolution realy needed to
monitor a (car ?) battery ?

And besided, couldn't the other side of the serial link
do the scaling of the ADC values ? Depending on what's
there, that could be easier.
