How do I use 10 bit A/D on 8 bit Pic? 12F675

[polymer52]

Ok so if I read that right I can store the highbyte & lowbyte A/D value in a word variable (adval) then I can do math on the entire 10 bits of the word?
For example:

 
ADCIN 0, adval	      ' Read channel 0 to adval

adval=adval *2/10      'do math on 10 bit adval

Debug "A/D Value: ",dec adval,10,13 'Send decimal value out

Yes, that should work. Just watch that the math does not over flow the word size var.

So I can actually do 16 bit math?
Cool!
Thanks

And if you use an 18F part with PBP2.5 or greater you can do 32 bit math.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? This code just returns " 0 0 " with 3 volts on gpio.0

DEFINE ADC_BITS 10
DEFINE ADC_CLOCK 3
DEFINE ADC_SAMPLEUS 50

CMCON = 7
ANSEL = %00000001
ADCON0.7 = 1
TRISIO = %00000001
adval var word
ADH var word
ADL var word
over:
pause 1000
ADCIN 0, adval ' Read channel 0 to adval
Serout2 5,16488,[#adval.HighByte," ",#adval.LowByte,13]
goto over

I got it fixed it was a hardware issue. Thank you!
