Exercises on ADC & DAC

1. One of the 16 ADC external inputs is connected to a potentiometer to pick an analogue
voltage value in the board used in the lab. Give the pin and the port of this ADC
inputs.
2. Give the code for the ADC AF configuration ( related to Q1) .
RCC->APB2ENR |= (1<<0);

3. Give the code necessary to initialise the operation of the ADC ( Related to Q1).
GPIOC->CRL &= 0x000F0000; // set GPIOC pin 4 as analog input
RCC->APB2ENR |= (1<<9); // Now we enable clock for ADC
// The sequence registers for the ADC is all cleared to 0,
// except bit 14 of SQR3, in order to configure ADC 3
// and to configure the sample time for channel 14 in the SMPR1
ADC1->SQR1 = 0x00000000;
ADC1->SQR2 = 0x00000000;
ADC1->SQR3 = (14<<0);
ADC1->SMPR1 = (3<<12);
// The ADC uses the alternate function (AF), so
RCC->APB2ENR |= (1<<0); // enable peripheral clock for AF
// Now we configure the ADC using the CR2 register,
// Where we configure it to run on an external trigger (bit 20)
// and SWSTART bits (17:19), then we enable continuous
// conversion (bit 1) and turn the ADC to ON (bit 0)
// then last we set right alignment (by clearing bit 11)
ADC1->CR2 = ((1<<20) | (7<<17) | (1<<1) | (1<<0));
ADC1->CR2 &= ~(1<<11);
ADC1->CR2 |= (1<<3); // Now we Reset the ADC (bit 3)
while(ADC1->CR2 & (1<<3));// Wait till reset finished
ADC1->CR2 |= (1<<2); //then start Calibration (bit 2)
while(ADC1->CR2 & (1<<2))// Wait till calibration finished
// We then have to turn the ADC on again
ADC1->CR2 |= (1<<0);

4. With 12 bit ADC, what is the half value of the maximum reading?
2048

5. Give the code to implement the following ADC operation. ( polling & interrupt)
[ Note: You can refer to lecture notes and the sample program blink]


6. Explain why the following formula can smooth the reading.
V_new = [ V_old * (n-1) + New_Reading] / n;
7. Design the code for the LED bar to indicate the ADC value.
Min ADC value : All LEDs off
Value in between: height reflect the value
Max ADC value: All LEDs O
GLCD_DisplayString(2,0,buffer);
// Cast average value to a float
adc_test = average_val;
// And normalize it according to max reading
adc_test = (adc_test/3750)*8;
// Then cast it back to integer
led_val = adc_test;
// Display this value as an LED bar
GPIOE->ODR = 0xFF<<led_val;
average_val = 0; // Reset average value
