Setting up ACMP

[dporada]

I'm trying to set up the ACMP for a LPC824 in MCUXpresso.  When I select the positive and negative inputs in the analog comparator peripheral window, is shows that the inputs are disabled.

Here's what it says: ACMP_IN3 » [25] P3[16]/J5[2]/P0_14-ADC2-ACMP_I3, Disabled

The pins are routed in the PINS window.

How do I enable the pins to work with the ACMP?

Here's my pins.

Hi dporada 

Please send me your demo project. I will check the problem directly.

Thanks

Here's what I was playing with.

Thanks for looking.

Hi dporada 

I set the same ACMP pins and part as yours but it works well on my side.

I use SDK LPCXpresso824 v2.11, MCUXpresso IDE v11.6.1.

Please use the same version enviroment as above. Then follow attached steps in video to test again.

The project is also attached.

Thanks,

I have attached a screen shot of the Peripheral setup that has the Disabled lines.

This was not actually my problem.  My problem was that the ACMP is not powered initially.  I am surprised that the software that is used to configure the ACMP, initialize it, and set up the interrupts does not power it up.  I did not see any mention in the documentation that this is required.  I found the line of code in lpcxpresso824max_acomp_interrupt example that disables a bit that allows the ACMP to power up.

Did I miss something obvious?

Hi @dporada 

You didn't configure ACMP pins. Please configure it in pin configuration tool, then you will see the pin enabled in ACMP component.

Have a nice day,
