How to program a ADC for a PIC6f690 with c++

Hello Gents,

I need to program a ADC for a PIC6f690
A variable resistor (0...5V) is my analog input and the ANSEL bits gives me the output result (0...255). I want to display the 4 leds. leds 1 is on when the output is lower the 32, led 2 is on when the output is between the 32 and 63, led 3 is on between the 64 and the 127 and led 4 is on higher then 127.

Can somebody help me with writting the C++ code.

How about.

Code:

void main ( ) {
  while ( 1 ) {
    int resistorValue = getResistorValue();  // A function YOU need to write
    if ( resistorValue < 32 ) {
      lightLed(1);  // A function YOU need to write
    } else if ( resistorValue < 64 ) {
      lightLed(2);
    } // and so on
  }
}

Yes we can help with the generalities of programming, but for device specific bit bashing like reading a specific port register, you need to show some initiative by reading the device programmers manual, and posting some actual code.


Perhaps ask on forums dedicated to the device in question, if you're stuck on a device specific issue -> Microchip

Hello Salem,

First thank you for the quick reply.
I know how to install the port registers.
Here is my code what i have make:

Code:

main()
{ ANSEL = 0b10000001;
ANSELH = 0;
TRISA=0x01; // PORTA as Anlog input */
TRISC=0x00; // PORTC as output */
while(1) /* loop */
{
ADCON0=0b10000001; 
ADCON1= 0b01010000; 

ADIE = 0; /* Masking the interrupt */
ADIF = 0; /* Resetting the ADC interupt bit */ 
GO_DONE=1; /* Staring the ADC process */ 
while(GO_DONE); /* Wait for conversion complete */

ADC_VALUE = (ADRESL); 

if (ADC_VALUE < 32) PORTC=displayportc[1]
else if (ADC_VALUE > 32 & <64) PORTC=displayportc[2]

if (ADC_VALUE > 64 & < 128) PORTC=displayportc[3]
else if (ADC_VALUE <255 & > 128) PORTC=displayportc[4]

}
}

Is this okay?

Thanks allready for the time.
