+A voltage divider can be used for plasma cutting arc. In the range of 0-300V, a voltage divider with a 1:25 ratio may be used (a 1:20 ratio can be used for voltages up to 240V). An example diagram for voltage divider connection is available below:
+{{:mycnc:et7-b-adc-connection-003-voltage-divider.jpg}}
+For example, using the standard //Vout=Vin*(R2/[R1+R2])// formula, we can see that for a 1:20 ratio, the resistors must be selected in such a way as to achieve a R1=19*R2 ratio.
+Similarly, for ADC0 (with a range of 0-5V), a voltage divider with a 1:50 ratio is required (for voltages up to 300V). On older models of the myCNC-ET7 controller (prior to 2020), the range on the ADC0 inputs was similarly 0-12V, however due to user convenience the two ADC ports can now be used for a variety of power sources and voltage dividers.
