help setting up 16F886 for ADC

[midali]

Thank you very much Richard !

Now I see that 100 iterations overflowing a word var, so I'll use 10 iteration or DT Average routine, but nevermind right now.

I know it's unpleasant to ask beginners an advanced but you can explain me how its made middle 16 bits of multiplication calculation, please ? ( mvolt = tc */ 1249 )

Also I'm confused about "40 deg = 4500 mv would be a 921 count" , the maximum scale what I need is 1750 mV, 40 deg = 900mv ( 40 deg = 400mV + 500mV = 900mV) .

Please do not mind that I ask so many aberrations, but for me there are things I could not understand ...I'm old man and also beginner in programming.

I must have up past my bedtime , managed to multiply 40 * 10 mv and got 4000


(

  mvolt = tc */ 1249  )

@5v vcc each adc count is 4.88 mV
4.88*256=1249
pbp divides/multiplies have internal 32 bit results there are various commands the allow convenient
access to this result in useful ways

@40 deg tc would be about 184 counts


so our calc is (184*4.88*256)/256
since pbp can't do real numbers

we do the 4.88*256 =1249

and 184*/1249 does the rest ie 184*1249/256
