Hi everyone,


I am trying to set up ADC on my dspic33f microcontroller (w/ explorer 16 board) in order to read 4 "modules" or 3.7 volt batteries.
I initially want to start with reading a single battery voltage then implementing the other 3.

I used previous code I had for my PIC24F to implement my new code and obviously implementing the new registers to work with dspic33f. Unfortunately, My code does not work. It errors when I include the ADC init and ADC read functions from my .h file.


Here is my Current code:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "p33FJ256GP710a.h"
#include "lcd.h"
#include "ADC.h"

//ADC CHANNELS
// Each channel was selected such that a ground pin is right next to the input
// pin while the pin needed to be a ADC pin
#define B1ADC 3; //AN3 Selected for 'Battery Module' 1
#define B2ADC 0; //AN0 Selected for 'Battery Module' 2
#define B3ADC 1; //AN1 Selected for 'Battery Module' 3
#define B4ADC 8; //AN8 Selected for 'Battery Module' 4

// I will start with A single battery module then once this
// works will I continue with all the modules.

//***************************************************************

// Buttons
#define SW3 PORTDbits.RD6
#define SW6 PORTDbits.RD7
#define SW4 PORTDbits.RD13
//LEDS
#define LED1 LATAbits.LATA0

_FOSC(OSCIOFNC_ON & FCKSM_CSDCMD & POSCMD_NONE);	//Oscillator Configuration
_FOSCSEL(FNOSC_FRC);								//Oscillator Selection
_FWDT(FWDTEN_OFF);									//Turn off WatchDog Timer
_FGS(GCP_OFF);										//Turn off code protect
_FPOR( FPWRT_PWR1 );								//Turn off power up timer

void Update_LCD( void );
const char mytext[] = "hello";
const char mytext1[] = "EDP 2012";
const char mytext2[] = "shitz";
const char mytext3[] = "Holla";
const char mytext4[] = "fuck you";

char result [24];
double test;

int main(void)
{
	
	int SW3Pressed =0;
	int SW6Pressed =0;
	int SW4Pressed =0;
	int voltage =0;
	TRISA = 0x007E;			//Make all PORTs all outputs

	/* Initialize LCD Display */
	Init_LCD();
	/* Welcome message */
	home_clr();
	puts_lcd( (char*) &mytext[0] );
	line_2();
	puts_lcd("BITCHES");
	
	initADC1(B1ADC);
	TRISB = 0x0008; //Sets RB3/AN3 as input since AN3 is being used as analog Input

	while(1)
	{				// delay 200ms
	

		if(SW3Pressed==1){
			home_clr();
			Delay(50);
			puts_lcd(&mytext4);
		}else if (SW6Pressed==1){
			home_clr();
			Delay(50);
			puts_lcd(&mytext2);
		}else if (SW4Pressed==1){
			home_clr();
			Delay(50);
			puts_lcd(&mytext3);
			voltage = readADC1(B1ADC); //Read ADC
}
		if(!SW3){
		
			SW3Pressed =1;
			SW6Pressed =0;
			SW4Pressed =0;
		}else if (!SW6) {
		
			SW3Pressed =0;
			SW6Pressed =1;
			SW4Pressed =0;
		}else if (!SW4) {
		
			SW3Pressed =0;
			SW6Pressed =0;
			SW4Pressed =1;
		}
		
}
}

and here is the ADC.h

Code:
#include "p33FJ256GP710a.h"


// Start with one pin being used to read a single battery
// Next read all four batteries from battery circuit.


// initialize the ADC for single conversion, select Analog input pins
void initADC1( int amask)
{
    AD1PCFGH = amask;      // select analog input pins
    AD1CON1 = 0x04E0;     // data output format-integer, auto convert after end of sampling.12bit Operation mode. No need to include a delay loop to provide time for completion of sampling
    AD1CSSL = 0;          // no scanning required
    AD1CON3 = 0x1FFF;     // Use internal clock, max sample time avail is 31Tad, conversion time Tad = 128*Tcy = 128*(2/Fosc) = 256/8MHz = 32us which is > (required)75ns ); 31 Tad = 31*32us = 992us is the sample time. About 100samples/sec
    //Possibly 1FFFF Check Both
	AD1CON2 = 0;          // use MUXA, AVss and AVdd are used as Vref+/-
    AD1CON1bits.ADON = 1; // turn on the ADC
} //initADC


int readADC1( int ch)
{
    AD1CHS0  = ch;               // select analog input channel
    ADC1BUF0 = 0x0000;   		// Reset Buffer
    AD1CON1bits.SAMP = 1;       // start sampling, automatic conversion will follow at end of sampling   
    while (!AD1CON1bits.DONE);  // wait to complete the conversion. DONE will be set as soon as conversion ends
    return ADC1BUF0;            // read the conversion result
} // readADC


I get syntax errors when I call the ADC functions.

Help Anyone?

[EDIT] I sent in actual values into the ADC functions and it worked... Why doesn't the variables I defined not work?.

[EDIT2]

The exact syntax error is:

Code:
main.c:60: error: syntax error before ';' token
main.c:66: error: syntax error before ';' token

Could you please post the exact syntax error messages that are generated during compilation.

Are you receiving errors for both calls of the initADC1() and readADC1()?


BigDog
 

Code:
main.c:60: error: syntax error before ';' token
main.c:66: error: syntax error before ';' token

Yes I am receiving the same error for both functions.
 

Remove the semicolons at the end of the define statements.

This is what you have now:
Code:
#define B1ADC 3; //AN3 Selected for 'Battery Module' 1
#define B2ADC 0; //AN0 Selected for 'Battery Module' 2
#define B3ADC 1; //AN1 Selected for 'Battery Module' 3
#define B4ADC 8; //AN8 Selected for 'Battery Module' 4

Change it to:
Code:
#define B1ADC 3 //AN3 Selected for 'Battery Module' 1
#define B2ADC 0 //AN0 Selected for 'Battery Module' 2
#define B3ADC 1 //AN1 Selected for 'Battery Module' 3
#define B4ADC 8 //AN8 Selected for 'Battery Module' 4

Hope this helps.
Tahmid.
 

Wow, Such a stupid mistake.


Thank you :)
