A/D Conversions

Figure 18-3 shows the operation of the A/D converter

after the GO/DONE bit has been set and the

ACQT<2:0> bits are cleared. A conversion is started

after the following instruction to allow entry into Sleep

mode before the conversion begins.

Figure 18-4 shows the operation of the A/D converter

after the GO/DONE bit has been set, the ACQT<2:0>

bits are set to ‘010’ and selecting a 4 TAD acquisition

time before the conversion starts.

Clearing the GO/DONE bit during a conversion will abort

the current conversion. The A/D Result register pair will

NOT be updated with the partially completed A/D

conversion sample. This means the ADRESH:ADRESL

registers will continue to contain the value of the last

completed conversion (or the last value written to the

ADRESH:ADRESL registers).

After the A/D conversion is completed or aborted, a

2TAD wait is required before the next acquisition can be

started. After this wait, acquisition on the selected

channel is automatically started.

18.6

Use of the ECCP2 Trigger

An A/D conversion can be started by the “Special Event

Trigger” of the ECCP2 module. This requires that the

CCP2M<3:0> bits (CCP2CON<3:0>) be programmed

as ‘1011’ and that the A/D module is enabled (ADON

bit is set). When the trigger occurs, the GO/DONE bit

will be set, starting the A/D acquisition and conversion

and the Timer1 (or Timer3) counter will be reset to zero.

Timer1 (or Timer3) is reset to automatically repeat the

A/D acquisition period with minimal software overhead

(moving ADRESH/ADRESL to the desired location).

The appropriate analog input channel must be selected

and the minimum acquisition period is either timed by

the user, or an appropriate TACQ time is selected before

the Special Event Trigger sets the GO/DONE bit (starts

a conversion).

If the A/D module is not enabled (ADON is cleared), the

Special Event Trigger will be ignored by the A/D module

but will still reset the Timer1 (or Timer3) counter.

Note:

The GO/DONE bit should NOT be set in

the same instruction that turns on the A/D.
