[aprssig] Tracking my trip

Fri Aug 18 18:41:39 EDT 2006

Slightly off topic of this thread but...

I have a 2003 Honda Civic. I notice that the voltage switches from 14.4
to ~12-13 volts intermittently. I assuming its some high tech battery
maintenance idea but it it's a real pain trying to configure my OT to
act on voltage changes.

Anyone experienced anything similar?

It is.  It has a resolution of about 0.06 volts.  Absolute accuracy is
limited by the accuracy of the voltage regulator, which provides the A/D
reference.  I think it's rated at +/- 5%.  It should be able to detect
when
the alternator is running easily enough.
