ADC Burst mode - DONE flag never cleared

[lpcware]

Hello,

I'm working on LPC1833 and FreeRTOS. I'm sampling only one channel in burst mode and I'm using the ADC0 peripheral. I'm using the Analog Inputs (not the shared ones with GPIO and other functions). I also use the ADC interrupt to copy the data from the registrer using the Chip_ADC functions from adc_18xx_43xx.c.

The problem is that the DONE flag for the ADC Data register of Channel 0 isn't cleared by the chip after I read the register in the interrupt routine. And the interrupt is always trigerring. The UM says : 43.6.2 A/D Global Data register  "This bit (DONE) is set to 1 when an analog-to-digital conversion completes. It is cleared when this register is read and when the AD0/1CR register is written. If the AD0/1CR is written while a conversion is still in progress, this bit is set and a new conversion is started.". So normally i have no flag to clear by software. I am right?

Or may am I having trouble with freeRTOS and the use of this interrupt.

Regards.
