EX_ADMM10.C example

[art]

Hi,

I would like to know, what does " #device ADC=16 " mean ?
In EX_ADMM10.C example it shows that for PCM and PCH, both use this setting. Is it referring to 16 Bit ADC ? if YES, does it mean that PIC18F452 can be set as 16bit ADC ? Follow to datasheet , this PIC18 is a 10 bit ADC.

It tells the compiler ADC functions to justify the ADC results out to 16bits.
The ten bit adc result, is moved so that instead of receiving:

0b000000xxxxxxxxxx

You receive:

0bxxxxxxxxxx000000

With the top bit of the physical result in the 16th bit of the return.
