What I'm looking to do is measure a single input with two separate ADCs. The first one being a PIC18 something or another and the second one most likely will be a mcp3425 (http://www.microchip.com/mymicrochip/filehandler.aspx?ddocname=en533572). They will be both fed from the output of one section of a mcp6002 op-amp. The reason for measuring with two is due to timing. The 10 bits of the PIC ADC will be precise enough and fast enough for a rough idea to use to control the relay controlling the circiut. The 16 bits of the other adc will be what I'm really after for calculations for the user, but will be too slow to control the circuit before disaster.
Are there any considerations I should be aware of while doing this, or just simply branch the output of the op-amp into the adc's and measure.
As always... thanks for the help. You all have taught me a lot!!
