The Raspberry Pi comes with its own set of input and output pins for interfacing with electronic components. However, the Arduino remains the recommended platform when it comes to hardware-focused ...

Becky Stern shows you how to use digital and analog inputs when building Arduino circuits, including controlling LEDs using pushbuttons and potentiometers.

Now the goal is the same but he has an even more surprising plan, throw the ADC out entirely and sample an analog thermistor using digital IO.

He put the project out on Hackaday.io and also has a video tutorial you can see below. There are five input pins to the chip which lets you connect one analog pin to any one of 32 analog pins.
