Arduino sketch to calibrate the INA125 chip with attached load cell, and output weight in grammes.

ABOUT

This software takes an analog reading from a load cell circuit attached to the arduino. Each new analog reading is put into a buffer of many readings where the newest analog reading replaces the oldest analog reading. All the readings in the buffer are added together and then divided by the number of readings held in the buffer to yield an average analog value. The buffer is used as a method of smoothing the analog readings taken from the arduino analog pin.

The software has two modes of operation where one operation is used for calibration and testing while the other is used for outputting to a graphing application such as Processing.
