[PIC] analog input and digital output on the same port

[muntahajameel]

I am having difficulties with having both analog input and digital output on the same port on PIC16F88.
On PIC16F88, PORTA is bidirectional I/O pins can be used for both analog inputs or digital inputs. I would like to have; RA1/AN1 as analog input and RA0/AN0 as digital output which will be connected to an LED.
it works with RA1/AN1 by configuring :
TRISA = 0x02; // set AN1 pin as input
ANSEL = 0x02; // set AN1 pin as analog
i connected a temperature sensor with RA1/AN1 and i have received the data correctly.
to configuring RA0/AN0 as digital output as:
ANSEL = 0X00; //configure AN0 pin as digital
TRISA = 0X00; //configure AN0 pin as an output pin
with that configuring the data revived from the sensor was in correct why?
is that configure was correct?
this is the program code :

your question looks confusing to me first but if i understand correctly do you want to use two different pins one as analog input and other as digital output ?
and if my assumption is correct then you read the data at analog input now you want to do some control for example led as you mentioned in your question.
then I think this single initialization do both of your task.

ANSEL = 0x00;
because this makes all PORT A pins as digital inputs.

To use PortA for both analog input and also digital output then you need to configure your LSB of ADCON1 register of your microcontroller to set some pins as analog input and some digital Output

   TRISA = 0x00;
   ADCON1 = 0B00000100; // this make AN0 and AN1 as analog input and the rest pins as Digital .

Configure the ADCON1 register to your own desire

thanks for your replying , is the=at code is correct?????
TRISA = 0x02; // set AN1 pin as input
ANSEL = 0x02; // set AN1 pin as analog
ADCON1=0x01; // set AN0 PIN as digital

The ADCON1 programming suggested in post #3 isn't correct for PIC16F88, read the datasheet. The other setting are O.K.

 

[muntahajameel]

If the ADCON1 isn't correct for PIC16F88 ,why it is work!!!!

 

[FvM]

Why don't you review the datasheet yourself?

ADCON1 is using only upper 4 bits in PIC16F88. Your setting is identical to default register content 00 and doesn't hurt.
