12-BIT ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL
CONVERTER (A/D) MODULE
The Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Converter module has
10 inputs for the 28-pin devices and 13 for the 40-pin
and 44-pin devices. This module allows conversion of an
analog input signal to a corresponding 12-bit digital
number.
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 operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1
functions of the port pins. The ADCON2 register,
source, programmed acquisition time and justification.

GO/DONE: A/D Conversion Status bit
When ADON = 1:
1 = A/D conversion in progress
0 = A/D Idle
bit 0
ADON: A/D On bit
1 = A/D Converter module is enabled
0 = A/D Converter module is disabled
Note 1:
These channels are not implemented on 28-pin devices.
2:
Performing a conversion on unimplemented channels will return a floating input measurement.
