DMA keep getting "Empty FIFO empty" 0x8000 from HSADC

Dear Sir, 

I am using DMA to collect HSADC output FIFO  and store into a local buffer,  while the FIFO output seems to be collected correctly, there is always several 0X8000 in between the actual converted sample values.  .   Below are the local buffer content and code for your reference.    

I have done various check, but could find out where was the probelm.  hope you can advise how can I get rmake DMA access only valid samples.

Here is what I have done to check the problem, 

1. Check the FIFO output by using HSADC interrupt, confirm FIFO contain only correct sample values. 

2. I have test it with differenct HSADC speeds, all have this "0x8000" in between samples.  howevr, they seems to be reducing with higher HSADC speed.

I don't know if this is the reason for your problem, but you seem to be starting from the last vector (1,7), since this is the last call to Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(), so you are never waiting for the HSADC recovery time before taking measurements. This really only needs to be called once with the descriptor that you want to start the measurements with. Also you never save the Table 0 descriptor 0.

Try the following changes.

// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 0);
// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 1);
// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 2);
// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 3);
// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 4);
// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 5);
// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 6);
// REMOVE Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 7);


Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 0, 0, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_SWAP | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(0x90) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_UpdateDescTable(LPC_ADCHS, 0); // ADD -- SAVE TABLE 0
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 0, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_NEXT | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 1, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_NEXT | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 2, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_NEXT | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 3, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_NEXT | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 4, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_NEXT | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 5, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_NEXT | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 6, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_NEXT | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));
Chip_HSADC_SetupDescEntry(LPC_ADCHS, 1, 7, (HSADC_DESC_CH(1) | HSADC_DESC_BRANCH_FIRST | HSADC_DESC_MATCH(1) | HSADC_DESC_RESET_TIMER));

Chip_HSADC_UpdateDescTable(LPC_ADCHS, 1);
Chip_HSADC_SetActiveDescriptor(LPC_ADCHS, 0, 0);// ADD -- SET TABLE 0, VECTOR 0 ACTIVE

Hi  CP Chen,
Thank you for your interest in NXP Semiconductor products and 
the opportunity to serve you.
I was wondering if you can share a compile-able demo and introduce the steps of testing, then I can replicate the issue on my site.
I'm looking forward to you reply.
TIC
