issue with ADC
PostPosted: Fri Apr 04, 2008 10:02 am     Reply with quote

plop,

i've got troube with the ADC.

i need :

1 ADC input
1 digital input
2 digital output
1 digital open-drain output.

so i wanted to do it like this :

Code:
#include <16F876.h>
#device ADC = 10
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock = 4000000)

void main(){

set_tris_A(0x03);
output_A(0x00);
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL);
setup_adc_ports(RA0_ANALOG);
short adcvalue;

      while(1){
                   my code here
                  }
}


with this, only PIN_A4,PIN_A1 and pin_A2 are working, I can't put anything on PIN_A3 and my ADC input isn't working.
do you know why?

ps : i'm reading the ADC like this : value = readadc();

thanks

Code:

set_tris_A(0x03);

This line is unuseful since you don't use fast_io or fixed_io

With the piece of code that you posted, there is no use of ADC so hard to say what is bad...

well if i've correctly understand.
i need to put :

#use fast_io

in my code to make it work, also, you want to see the full code :

Quote:
#include <16F876.h>
#device ADC=10
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=4000000)



void main() {

long adcvalue;
short read;
set_tris_A(0x03);
output_A(0x00);
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL);
setup_adc_ports(RA0_ANALOG);
set_adc_channel(0);

while(1){
adcvalue = read_adc();
if (adcvalue < 799){
output_BIT(PIN_A4, 1);
delay_us(800);
output_BIT(PIN_A4, 0);
delay_us(200);
output_BIT(PIN_A5, 1);
}
else {
output_BIT(PIN_A4, 0);
output_BIT(PIN_A5, 0);
delay_ms(1000);
}
read = input(PIN_A1);
if (read == 1){
output_BIT(PIN_A2, 1);
delay_ms(1000);
output_BIT(PIN_A2, 0);
output_BIT(PIN_A3, 1);
}
}

}

Simpler than using fast_io, as a first step you can just remove these 2 lines :
Code:

set_tris_B(0x03);
output_B(0x00);


So now the code is here, what is exactly the problem?
Does the code is locked in the "read_adc()"?
Or the read value isn't the one you are waiting for?

nope

read_adc always return a value<799 wich is not normal.
and pin A3 is always at low state.

if i'm usign A0 as an ADC and port B for my digital input/output everything works. but i can only have an open-drain output on port A

In your 2nd post, all possible analog inputs are selected as analog when in your 1st post only AN0 is selected.
Which of both are you using?

sorry,
setup_adc_ports(RA0_ANALOG);

Note also (not mentioned yet), that a 'short', cannot hold a 10bit adc value. The register used to receive the ADC value, _must_ be declared as a 'long'.

@tetelma, well, i'm using a long type.

and i find a solution, if I replace :

Quote:
set_tris_A(0x03);
output_A(0x00);


by

Quote:
output_float(PIN_A1);
output_drive(PIN_A2);
output_drive(PIN_A3);
output_drive(PIN_A4);
output_drive(PIN_A5);


but why? i mean, i don't see any error in my first code

Because you don't use fast_io or fixed _io the compiler will automatically set the tris for you and so all port A pins will be outputs. What isn't compatible with ADC.
That's why I asked that you remove them. ;-)

The 12th line in your original posted code (which can't work, because type declarations in C, _must_ be in front of code in any section), says 'short adcvalue;', which is what worried me...

ha ok, but i don't understand how to use fast_io or fixed_io.

i juste need to write #use fast_io in my code and then i'll be able to use :
set_tris_A(0x03);
output_A(0x00);

?

@ Ttelmah : my bad ;)

#use fast_io(port_a)
is an example for using fast_io for the port A (and only this one).

Have a look at the reference manual or in PCW help (if you own it).

ccsinfo . com / downloads / CReferenceManual . pdf

-remove the spaces in the link. ;-)
