Analog Input/ADC (LPC55S06-EVK)

caden013 — Thu, 03 Jun 2021 20:04:18 GMT

Hi all,

I am trying to figure out how to accept analog input into my board (LPC55S06-EVK). Furthermore, I also want to use the ADC to convert this into data that I can use. However, I am lost on how to do so. Can I take in analog input independently from the ADC, or are these two intricately tied together?

In the MCUXpresso SDK API Reference Manual, which section should I be studying? Right now I just want to take in one analog input signal and convert this into digital data that I can evaluate in my program.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, Caden,

First of all, I suggest you download SDK package for the LPC55S06-EVK board from the link:

https://www.nxp.com/design/software/development-software/mcuxpresso-software-and-tools-/mcuxpresso-software-development-kit-sdk:MCUXpresso-SDK

You can follow up the following screenshot to load the ADC example.

In the above example, it use the ADC0_0 channel(P0_23 pin), in other words, it sample P0_23 pin voltage of LPC55S06.

From the above schematics of LPC55S05-EVK, you can see that the P0_23 is connected to pin8 or pin3 of J23 connector.

In conclusion, you can use a cable with hole end, and connect pin3 of J23 to GND or VDD or any other voltage and check the sample with the example lpadc

Hope it can help you

Looking through the schematic, I do not see a J23 anywhere in the document. Perhaps you meant to type J13, but either way the example project is not displaying the analog values from my input to A3 (pin3/P0_23). I understand that the demo example project (lpadc_temperature_measurement.c) uses the on-board temperature sensor, but I am wanting to take in analog voltage inputs and be able to use these values.

Hi,

I am sorry, I mean the connector J13 rather the J23 for the ADC0_0 channel, in detail, pls connect the Pin8 of J13 to VDDA or GND and check the result.

In the SDK package, we have an example as the following screenshot:

The example use the lpadc_interrupt.c, I do not know where the lpadc_temperature_measurement.c is

Hope it can help you

And this is the result that I receive (which is not the value of the analog signal):

LPADC Inget user channel's ADC value.
LPADC Interrupt Example
ADC Full Range: 65536
Please press any key to get user channel's ADC value.

How do I need to edit this code to give me the values that I am wanting?

Hi,

I am bust today, I will test it on the LPC5506-EVK board tomorrow.
