I think I should try a new one and compare results (this time feed a
really low value).

My USB/chip is the eZ430-F2013. I place one wire through Pin 14 (A-)
(that should be ground, I think) and one wire through another pin
(A+). But I always get 0.

Thanks for your feedback,

Donald

Beginning Microcontrollers with the MSP430

4V max you said? Use a 59K 1% and a 10K 1%.....that should give you about 580mV at the pin when the input is 4V.

I am not familiar with the board you have. On mine, if I suspected the part was damaged, I would change it out.

If your part is working, grounding the pin should result in 0x7FFF....or maybe 0x0000 depending on your set-up. It's been a while, I cannot remember the details.....

Hi,

I'm not sure if it's damaged or not (how can I check this?)

Also, I've used that sample code - my SD16MEM0 = 0.

Could you suggest a voltage value I can apply and a pin I can use
that you know works well (I'm using the small detachable board which
is always connected to the USB debugging interface).

Much appreciate your reply,

Thanks,

Donald

Hi, thanks for the feedback.

What would this "resistor divider for measuring voltages above 0.6V"
be? In terms of values, etc? And a layout?

I know it works. It's been a while though. You may have to make some

Check your clock source. Sometimes that seems to decrease the accuracy.

Also, if you have already applied 4V to the pins, you may have damaged the part. Try a new F2013 part in there. Use a resistor divider for measuring voltages above 0.6V

This is directly from the sample code zip file. I have used it and I know it works. It's been a while though. You may have to make some tweaks to suit your particular pin out etc:

Hi, I'm really struggling here. Could anyone help me out - I've
lowered my voltage input to 0.3V and am feeding this through Pin 6
(P1.4).

I'm getting different values for each reading.

Could anyone provide a piece of code (that works) I could use to get
my program working - I would so appreciate it, beyond words.

I've tried feeding a constant 1.5V through Pin 6 (P1.4) using the
sample code of sd16_a3.c, but still get a max of 2^16. As soon as I
remove this voltage, there's still about 0.23V going through. I then
get numbers like 22, 365.

Even though P1.0 (Pin 2) has no voltage going through, it still shows
a value. As does P1.2 (Pin 4).

I'm confused as to why.

The input voltage has to be within the power rail. That is, it has to
be above Vss (0.0V) and below Vcc (3.6V max). Otherwise, you may
damage the MSP430. Further more, the analog input has to be below
Vref. Otherwise, you always get the max digital reading.

I seem to recall that with the 1.2 V for Vref, the maximum voltage which
can be measured is 600 mV. Please read the datasheet to make sure.

The voltage has a max. range of (currently) 4V. I want to sample it
for every i = 50,000 delay. The voltage input does tend to change.

Currently all I seem to be getting is 2^16 value regardless of the
input, even when it changes.
