atd stuck bits

jasl8r — Wed, 06 Dec 2006 04:19:05 GMT

I am using the atd in 10-bit mode on a 68hc912b32, and the 2 LSbs never change from '10'. This appears to be a somewhat similar issue to this one. Despite the +-2LSb accuracy, shouldn't I still be seeing a variable value in these two bits?

I'm using this code to begin the conversion.

LDAA #$C2
STAA atd_ctl2
;Delay 100us
LDAA #$E1
STAA atd_ctl3
LDAA #$44
STAA atd_ctl5

Hello,

According to the datasheet, the HC912B32 device does not have a 10-bit mode - the ATD is 8 bits only. Or am I looking at the wrong datasheet?

I am reading the M68HC12B family datasheet which covers the MC68HC912B32. It describes 8 and 10-bit atd operating modes and does not mention that any processor only has an 8-bit mode. Can you post a link to the datasheet that you see that in?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Hello Jeremy,

This is very curious!

I was reading from a quite old "Technical Summary" document (MC68HC912B32TS/D) that specifically listed 8 channels of 8-bit resolution. However, I could not find any errata document that covered more recent upgrading of the ATD from 8-bit to 10-bit resolution. It is not unknown for Freescale to do this, but an A-suffix is usually attached to the part number when changes of this magnitude occur.

If the new parts do actually handle 10-bit resolution, I wonder if the part you have been testing is an old one.

According to the Freescale website, it would seem this part is no longer being manufactured.

Regards,

Mac

On the freescale processor page it does describe it as having the 10-bit atd. I also do in fact have the word sized memory locations for storing the results, with the lower byte just stuck at '0x80'. I did try my program on two different chips as well, so I don't think that there is any hardware error.

Okay, so I was writing to the incorrect register. Figures.
0xE1 => atd_ctl4, and I was writing to atd_ctl3. Sorry for the trouble.
