Talk:Atari SIO

Dear all,In the cassette section, the current version of the article reads "... as there was no A-to-D converter in the computer".I'm afraid that's not accurate.Paddles plugged into the joystick ports have a variable resistance, and this analog signal is converted by the computer into a numeric 0-228 (or was it 1-228?) value.So there IS an A-to-D converter in the Atari 8-bit computers.Kind regards, Ldelsarte (talk) 15:57, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
