Forum Post: Help with ADC in MSP430F5438A microcontroller

Hi, I am new to microcontrollers generally, and especially MSP. I want to get to know how ADC works in my development board. I have found this code in order to run it on board and check if the ADC is working but I am doing something wrong for sure. I am applying voltage on pins 6.7 setting a breakpoint before the incrementation of "results" but I dont get any values other than 7 all the time. I understand that it's 7 bits of 0 representing no value. Can someone help me with this? Do I have to assing some pins at the begining of the code for this to work? / MSP430F54x Demo - ADC12, Repeated Single Channel Conversions // // Description: This example shows how to perform repeated conversions on a // single channel using "repeat-single-channel" mode. AVcc is used for the // reference and repeated conversions are performed on Channel A0. Each // conversion result is moved to an 8-element array called results[]. Test by // applying a voltage to channel A0, then running. Open a watch window in // debugger and view the results. Set Breakpoint1 in the index increment line // to see the array value change sequentially and Breakpoint to see the entire // array of conversion results in "results[]" for the specified Num_of_Results. // This can run even in LPM4 mode as ADC has its own clock // // MSP430F5438 // ----------------- // /|\| | // | | | // --|RST | // | | // Vin -->|P6.0/A0 | // | | // // // M Smertneck / W.
