+A transimpedance amplifier is used to convert light into a voltage. With a
+second stage this voltage is amplified. Both outputs are available for the ADC. 
+
+On the digital board there is besides an ESP8266, an ADC, an DAC and a temperature
+sensor. The DAC is needed to steer the LED driver circuit, that excites the
+sample. 
+ 
 ## Software
+The software is written in C++ leveraging the [Sming](https://github.com/SmingHub/Sming) framework.
