I am powering a 5V microcontroller (arduino clone, atmega328p) using a 9V block and a buck converter. Now I want to let the microcontroller occasionally measure the battery voltage, so I can get an idea of how full it is....
increase the resistors by a factor of 100 or so and add a very small cap across the lower one. The cap inside the ADC is absolutely tiny, pF at best. So a 100nF cap would easily do the trick and supply the voltage as required.
How to improve my battery measurement circuit?
