12f1572 ADC problem
PostPosted: Mon Jun 26, 2017 7:48 am     Reply with quote

Hi guys.
I've spent a lot of time with experiments on how to make ADC work on 12f1572.
i cant debug so i go blind using some leds etc.

I try to use Analog channel 3 (porta.4) to read a voltage. Then i light a led if its above 25% (50 out of 255). However it acts like digital.
Led goes off when i go below 2Volts and then it never goes on even if give 4Volts.
Any help appreciated. It must be on configuration....
Code:
 #include <12F1572.h>
#device ADC=8
//#FUSES WDT                      //Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES PUT                      //Power Up Timer
#FUSES MCLR                     //Master Clear pin enabled
#FUSES PROTECT                  //Code protected from reads
#FUSES BROWNOUT                 //Reset when brownout detected
#FUSES NOCLKOUT                 //I/O function on OSC2
#FUSES NOWRT                    //Program memory not write protected
#FUSES STVREN                   //Stack full/underflow will cause reset
#FUSES BORV25                   //Brownout reset at 2.5V
#FUSES LPBOR                    //Low-Power Brownout reset is enabled
#FUSES NOLVP                    //No low voltage prgming, B3(PIC16) or B5(PIC18) used for I/O   


#use delay(internal=4000000,restart_wdt)
//#use FIXED_IO( A_outputs=PIN_A2,PIN_A0,PIN_A1,pin_a5)
//setup_comparator(nc);
#define Status   PIN_A0
#define deb2   PIN_A1
#define Relay   PIN_A2

unsigned int8 counter1=0;
int8 temperature,previous=0,a=0;

   
#INT_TIMER1

void  TIMER1_isr(void)
{
   restart_wdt();
   counter1++;
   if (counter1>=15){     
      output_toggle(status);
      counter1=0;
   }
   
}
   
   

void main()
{
   set_tris_a(0b00011010);
   port_A_pullups(0x00);
   delay_ms(400);
   setup_timer_1(T1_INTERNAL|T1_DIV_BY_1);      //65,5 ms overflow
   setup_adc(adc_clock_div_8);
   setup_adc_ports(sAN3, VSS_VDD);
   set_adc_channel( 3 );
   enable_interrupts(INT_TIMER1);
   enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
   //setup_wdt(WDT_ON);
   //setup_wdt(8);      //~2,3 s reset

   while(true)
   { 
      output_high(voltage);
      delay_ms(10);
      temperature=read_adc();
      delay_ms(10);
      for(a=0;a==temperature;a++){ // for debugging purposes. it doesnt work
         output_toggle(deb2);
         delay_ms(1);
         }
         
      if ((temperature>=50)) {
         output_high(relay);
         previous=1;
         }
       
      else if (temperature<=50) {
         output_low(relay);
         previous=0;
      }
      delay_ms(100);
      restart_wdt();
   }
}

First, your watchdog is enabled, and enabled for the minimum time of 1mSec. It'll be continuously resetting the chip....

To disable the watchdog, you have to specify NOWDT. The watchdog defaults to 'on'. The restart_wdt call in delays is once every major loop of the delay. Your one in the timer is every time the interrupt is called. Neither is often enough for a watchdog set this fast....
In your code you have setup_wdt functions handled incorrectly. The syntax to setup the watchdog timer for a 2 second reset is:

setup_wdt(WDT_ON | WDT_2S);

Then:

for(a=0;a==temperature;a++)

Now, a is set to 0. Is this ever going to be equal to 'temperature'?. Only if the ADC actually returns 0. So 'of course' this code will rarely if at all get executed...

You then have the line to turn off the comparator (needed), up as a configuration line with the fuses and clock settings. It isn't. It's a line of code.

Obvious comments then apply, about if you do have a trap diode on the relay coil, and a current limiting resistor on the LED?.

Hi. Yes circuit is ok. I think it's not wdt problem. I partially disable it, probably in wrong manner after some tests. How can I disable the comparator? Is the line with nc that I have commented out? I'm on the way right now. I will check your suggestions later more careful. Thank you.

It is the watchdog. I tested before posting, and it is watchdog resetting.
You cannot 'partially disable' it. It is on or off. Where you have remmed out the line to enable it in the fuses, does not work, since the fuse defaults to 'on'.

The syntax for lines is in the header file for the chip.
setup_comparator(NC_NC);

Are you _sure_ you have the relay properly trapped. 90% of the posters here do not, or lack basic smoothing by the chip.

i must be in the 10% !. I use diode for relay, external zener to most pins and tenths of capacitors!
setup_comparator(NC_NC); is not working, i placed this
#define NC_NC
i also placed nowdt fuse, but its still the same. Led goes off but it doesnt turn on.

What compiler version do you have?.

The comparator setup, is correct on the current compilers.

5.046.
Could it be something else;still acting the same
i used
setup_comparator(NC_NC); in main but it
This is header file (sorry about before, i had place it before main)
Code:
// Constants used in setup_comparator() are:
//
#define NC_NC           0x37

// Constants used in setup_comparator() are:
#define CP1_A1_A0       0x8000
#define CP1_A4_A0       0x8001
#define CP1_FVR_A0      0x8006
#define CP1_VSS_A0      0x8007
#define CP1_A1_DAC      0x8010
#define CP1_A4_DAC      0x8011
#define CP1_FVR_DAC     0x8016
#define CP1_VSS_DAC     0x8017
#define CP1_A1_FVR      0x8020

Simplify, and prove your hardware is working:
Code:

#include <12F1572.h>
#device ADC=8

#use delay(internal=4000000)
//do this before the fuses - ensures it does not override the NOCLKOUT

#FUSES NOWDT           //Start without the watchdog
#FUSES PUT                 //Power Up Timer
#FUSES NOMCLR          //Master Clear pin disabled
#FUSES NOPROTECT    //Always develop with protection off
#FUSES BROWNOUT    //Reset when brownout detected
#FUSES NOCLKOUT     //I/O function on OSC2
#FUSES NOWRT          //Program memory not write protected
#FUSES STVREN          //Stack full/underflow will cause reset
#FUSES BORV25          //Brownout reset at 2.5V
#FUSES NOLVP            //No low voltage prgming, B3(PIC16) or B5(PIC18) used for I/O   

#define Relay   PIN_A2

void main(void)
{
   port_A_pullups(0x0xFF);
   setup_comparator(NC_NC);
   setup_timer_1(T1_INTERNAL|T1_DIV_BY_1); 
   setup_adc(aADC_CLOCK_DIV_8);
   setup_adc_ports(sAN3, VSS_VDD);
   set_adc_channel( 3 );

   while(TRUE)
   {
        output_high(RELAY);
        delay_ms(2000);
        output_low(RELAY);
        delay_ms(2000);
    }
}


Just turns the relay on for 2 seconds and off for 2 seconds. Does it work?.

So, using this as the start add one thing. Read the ADC and do the tests (your tests are slightly flawed. Think about the logic{
Code:

      temperature=read_adc();
      if ((temperature>=50))
      {
         output_high(relay);
         previous=1;
      }
      else //you only get here if the signal is <50. Pointless to test for <= here
      {
         output_low(relay);
         previous=0;
      }

Generally make your variables local, unless they _must_ be global.

Does this then work.

This is the basics of debugging. Take the problem _one step at a time_.

Thank you Ttelmah.
I will check it again step by step.
