strange A2D 5V scaling result - 16F819
5V PIC16F819, olimex pic18 dev board, PBPW in MPLAB, PICKIT3
Hello everybody,
Nothing extrodinary here, except the amount of time I've spent on this :-) I'm simply trying to read a voltage (right now it's off a pot, but eventually it would be a battery) and send the value out over RS-232. I'm getting some strange results from the scaling math. Here is the code.
and here are the results I get. notice the strange readings when the A2D count is 201 and 202, also 406, also 1021.Code:' PIC16F819 Configuration ' ================ @ __CONFIG _HS_OSC & _MCLR_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _WDT_OFF & _PWRTE_OFF & _BODEN_OFF DEFINE DEBUG_REG PORTB 'RS-232 output on PORTB.4 DEFINE DEBUG_BIT 4 DEFINE DEBUG_BAUD 19200 ' 19200 Baud, DEFINE DEBUG_MODE 0 ' not inverted. using (MAX232) RS-232 level shifer DEFINE ADC_BITS 10 ' Set number of bits in result DEFINE ADC_CLOCK 3 ' Set clock source (3=rc) DEFINE ADC_SAMPLEUS 50 ' Set sampling time in uS DEFINE OSC 20 ADCON0 = %11000001 ADCON1 = %10001110 ' AN0 (PORTA.0) is analog TRISB = %00000110 TRISA = %00000011 PushB var PORTB.2 ' Pushbutton (OLIMEX 18 pin PIC dev board) LED var PORTB.3 ' Indicator LED (OLIMEX 18 pin PIC dev board) A2DPIN var PORTA.0 ' AN0 A2Dvalue var WORD ' to store result W0 var WORD ' division remainder W1 var WORD ' division modulus A2Dvalue = 0 W0 = 0 W1 = 0 DEBUG REP $00\8,13,10,"Start Up" LED = 1 'Wait at startup pause 7000 LED = 0 mainloop: pause 250 ADCIN 0, A2Dvalue ' Read channel 0 to variable advalue W0 = (A2Dvalue * 5) / 1024 W1 = (A2Dvalue * 5) // 1024 DEBUG REP $00\8,13,10, "Voltage = ",DEC W0,".",DEC3 W1, " A2D value = ",DEC A2Dvalue Goto mainloop END
