PIC18FXX20
19.0
10-BIT ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL
CONVERTER (A/D) MODULE
The module has five registers:
•
•
•
•
•
A/D Result High Register (ADRESH)
A/D Result Low Register (ADRESL)
A/D Control Register 0 (ADCON0)
A/D Control Register 1 ((ADCON1)
A/D Control Register 2 ((ADCON2)
The analog-to-digital (A/D) converter module has 12
inputs for the PIC18F6X20 devices and 16 for the
PIC18F8X20 devices. This module allows conversion
of an analog input signal to a corresponding 10-bit
digital number.
The ADCON0 register, shown in Register 19-1, con-
trols the operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1
register, shown in Register 19-2, configures the func-
tions of the port pins. The ADCON2 register, shown in
justification.

bit 1
GO/DONE:
A/D Conversion Status bit
When ADON =
1:
1
= A/D conversion in progress (setting this bit starts the A/D conversion, which is automatically
cleared by hardware when the A/D conversion is complete)
0
= A/D conversion not in progress
ADON:
A/D On bit
1
= A/D converter module is enabled
0
= A/D converter module is disabled
Legend:
R = Readable bit
- n = Value at POR
W = Writable bit
‘1’ = Bit is set
U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0’
‘0’ = Bit is cleared
x = Bit is unknown
