Basics

LPC1768 has 12 bit ADC which is multiplexed among 8 input pins. It's measurement range is typically 3V which means that ADC resolution is approximately 0.7 mV.

Registers

Here we will discuss commonly used ADC registers.

ADCR ( ADC Control Register )

ADCR
31:28	27	26:24	23:22	21	20:17	16	15:8	7:0
Reserved	EDGE	START	Reserved	PDN	Reserved	BURST	CLCKDIV	SEL

ADGDR ( ADC Global Data Register )

ADCR
31	27	26:24	23:16	15:4	3:0
Done	EDGE	Channel	Reserved	RESULT	Reserved

  /* Initialize the adc before starting the conversion */
	ADC_Init();
 
  /* Display "ADC Channel zero" on first line*/
	UART_Printf("ADC Channel zero");
 
   /* Display the adc channel zero value continously */ 
   while(1)
    {
		/*Get the adc value of channel five */
		adc_result= ADC_GetAdcValue(5);
 
		/*Display the adc value on UART*/
		UART_Printf("\n %u",adc_result);
	}
}
