You can get a quite cheap DVM with serial or USB and automatically fill=20 up excel at a desired time interval. No idea what accuracy it is, but a=20 PIC with 10bits is likely only +/- 15mv to +/- 35mv on 10V range as the=20 ADC is going to be +/- 1 bit , approx 10mV in 10V before reference and=20 divider accuracy is considered. --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
