some problem with a pic adc

i try to work with the adc (12bit) of the pic16f1786. My settings are as follows:

ANSELA = %00010111
ADCON0 = %01111101 ' Using 12 Bit, Fixed Voltage reference
ADCON1 = %11110011 ' 2's Compliment, FRC, VREF- to VSS(ADNREF), VREF to FVR
ADCON2 = %00001111 ' ADC Negative to VSS
FVRCON = %11001111 ' Enable FVR, and 4.096v Reference
WPUA = %00000000

But when I try to acquire from a source it gives me a somewhat incorrect value, if I dont understand it. The measured source with the digital voltmeter gives 1.40 volts while the pic gives me the value 1435. But with a fvr of 4.096 volts and 12 bits (4096 levels) does not have a 1: 1 ratio? That is 1435 means 1,435 volts?

If I read the datasheet properly the accuracy specification on the FVR is +/- 3% so you're still within that window.

Vdd must be above 4.75V and there's a comment saying the specification is valid for the industrial temperature range part only. What's your Vdd and exact part number?

Also, are you doing any filtering/averaging in your code? You might benefit from that if you have noise coupled into your signal which your DMM filters out.

thank you henrik, the averaging seems to be good but today i will try to check the "zeroing", maybe the problem is there. the Vdd comes from a common 7805 and it's something near 4,97 volts....
