Tiva C ADC
By James Cockrell and Justin Loveless
Overview of Analog-Digital Converter (ADC)
• Turns an analog voltage into a digital value
• Used for sensor measurement
• Can be triggered with either SWI’s or HWI’s
TM4C ADC Specs
• Reference voltages:
• VREFP – tied to 3.3V on the Launchpad.
• VREFN – tied to ground on the Launchpad.
• Range & Resolution
• Range = 0  4095
• Resolution = 3.3V / 4096 = 8.05 mV (p. 803)
• Max Sampling Speed = 1 million samples/second
• Hardware Averaging
• Averages 4 samples in hardware during conversion
• Differential Sampling
• Sample the difference between two inputs
• Internal Temp Sensor
• Can be sampled for chip temp
ADC0 and ADC1
• There are two 12 bit ADC’s
• All input channels and triggers are shared by both ADC’s
Sequencers
• Pick sequencers based on how many samples you want
• For our example we only need one sample

Nothing (continuous samples)
• Our example will use a software as the trigger
Example setup
It’s actually that simple!
3.3V
Tiva C
PE3
GND
Pot
Example ADC Code
1. Set up clock for 40 MHz
2. Enable peripheral ADC0, then reset it to apply changes
3. Disable ADC0 sequencer 3
4. Configure ADC sequencer
5. Configure steps for sequences
6. Enable peripheral GPIO port E
Example ADC Code
1. Activate PE3’s alternate function (AIN0)
2. Set up interrupt handler for ADC0 sequencer 3
3. Enable interrupts for ADC0 sequencer 3
4. Re-enable ADC0 sequencer 3
5. Enable global interrupts
6. Post request for ADC conversion (in a loop)
Example ADC Code (ISR handler)
1. Clear interrupt flag for ADC0 Sequencer 3
2. Wait until conversion is done
3. Read data, and process it
