problem with A/D 18f452
PostPosted: Sun Aug 29, 2010 2:09 pm     Reply with quote

hello
I use pic 16f877a in my project and I need 5 channel A/D in this. This project is worked really good. When I need to change and upgrade my program I forced with program memory to use 18f452. A/D in this pic is unstable but this program worked with 16f877a.
Very stable. For example: when I read 86mv with 16f877a it read 86mv fixed, but 18f452 read (89-86-78-83..) and change read value each time reading and not fix.
Part of this program:
Code:

#include <18F452.h>
#fuses HS
#device ADC=10
#use delay(Clock=20000000)
#define use_portd_lcd TRUE
#include <lcd420.c>
#include <math.h>

void main(){
float T_care,T_care1,T_care2,T_ch,P_ch,P_bo;

lcd_init();
output_c(0x00);
setup_adc_ports(AN0_AN1_AN2_AN4_AN5_AN6_AN7_VSS_VREF );
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL);

while(true){
set_adc_channel(0);
 delay_us(100);
 P_ch=READ_ADC();
 P_ch=(p_ch/17.9);
 delay_ms(5);

set_adc_channel(1);
 delay_us(100);
 T_ch=read_ADC();
 T_ch=(T_ch*.97656)/1000;
 T_ch=((901*T_ch)/(5-T_ch));
 T_ch=ceil((T_ch-100)/0.385);
 delay_ms(5);

set_adc_channel(2);
 delay_us(100);
 P_bo=READ_ADC();
 P_bo=(p_bo/17.9);

if(P_bo>=3)
  output_bit(PIN_d3,0);
else
  output_bit(PIN_d3,1);

delay_ms(5);

set_adc_channel(4);
delay_us(100);
T_care1=read_ADC();
T_care1=(T_care1*.97656)/1000;
T_care1=((901*T_care1)/(5-T_care1));
T_care1=ceil((T_care1-100)/0.385);
delay_ms(5);

set_adc_channel(5);
delay_us(100);
T_care2=read_ADC();
T_care2=(T_care2*.97656)/1000;
T_care2=((901*T_care2)/(5-T_care2));
T_care2=ceil((T_care2-100)/0.385);

lcd_gotoxy(1,2);
printf(lcd_putc,"T:1=%f",T_care1);

lcd_gotoxy(8,2);
printf(lcd_putc,"     ");

lcd_gotoxy(10,2);
printf(lcd_putc,"2=%f",T_care2);

lcd_gotoxy(15,2);
printf(lcd_putc,"   ");

lcd_gotoxy(1,1);
printf(lcd_putc,"T:ch=%f",T_ch);

lcd_gotoxy(9,1);
printf(lcd_putc,"    ");

lcd_gotoxy(1,3);
printf(lcd_putc,"P:bo=%f",P_bo);

lcd_gotoxy(1,4);
printf(lcd_putc,"P:ch=%f",P_ch);
delay_ms(500);
}
}

Please help me! Question

setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL);

Read the A/D converter section of the 18F452 data sheet:
http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/devicedoc/39564c.pdf
Look at this table in that section:
Quote:
TABLE 17- 1: TAD vs. DEVICE OPERATING FREQUENCIES

It shows that you're supposed to use a clock divisor of 32 when you
have a 20 MHz oscillator. So your setup statement should really be:
Code:
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_DIV_32);

This will probably fix most of your stability problems.

hi
When i fix it clock like as table 17-1(clock div 32), its really better, but not very good like as 16f877a. Thanks for your useful idea. I am really thanks.
Are you can help me to complete solve this problem. I waiting to help more...... Smile Smile Smile Smile

Describe the external circuit that is providing the analog voltage.
Give the details, including component values. The maximum impedence
of the circuit driving the analog pins should be 2.5K ohms. That value
comes from the PIC data sheet. If it's greater than 2.5K, you will get
less accuracy.

Also, you have the ADC configured to use external Voltage References,
for both Vref+ and Vref-. What circuits do you have connected to those
pins ? What are the voltages on those pins ?
