Problem with ADC input |
Posted: Wed Jun 22, 2005 2:02 am |

I am inputting a 10k potentiometer on a 16F819. This chip is a 10 bit ADC, so am I correct in saying that I am basically reading in a number between 0 and 1024? Anyways, I store the input as a long and pass it to a function to output to two, 7 segment displays. I want to limit the adjustability of the potentiometer to about 60, which is why I am dividing the long by 17.0 (1024/17~=60).
My output on the display only goes between 1 and 14. Can any of you see what I am doing wrong?
Also, is there any other frequency I can set this chip to run at? or will I always want to do 4 MHz?
Thanks

After some testing, I am thinking that the ADC is actually only 2^8 or 256.....what am I confused about here? |

Add
if you want to read 10 bit analog signals.
Best regards.

The ADC is being read too soon after the channel is selected. You need to wait for the output to "settle". I use 25us on an 18F452, I don't know what settling time your processor requires. _________________ Regards, Andrew
