Help with ADC conversion

[Darrel Taylor]

I'll second the Comparator idea, but with a little difference. (Don't filter the signal)

Set a timer to have a delay of 20ms or more.
Using the comparator Interrupts, reload that timer every time you get a pulse.

If the voltage drops below the comparator's trigger point, the timer will overflow.
Use the timer interrupt/flag to determine when there's an error condition
